almost one!!!!

lincoln will be one year old in 9 days. last year at this time i was begging for labor to start. he had a different plan. lincoln is walking really fast these days and has pretty much completely given up on crawling. walking's so much faster when you can do it well!

his favorite foods are any sort of round fruit or veggie...grapes, peas, and blueberries. josh made him vegan french toast and he loves that too!

i can't wait to see him stuff his cake all over his face. yay!

he's talking a lot. saying things like "dat" for that, "di" for this, "hat", "na" (haven't deciphered that one yet), "arts" for archie and any other animal, and "hi." these words are scattered among much babble!

his hair is growing like weeds and he, no doubt, has a mullet! heck yeah!

he is not sleepy through the night and he never has. he nurses every 2 - 3 hours in the night but thats ok cuz he's sleeping with us. we even got rid of his crib that he rarely used.

he has 8 teeth and is working on his two lower molars. another reason he loves frozen peas!

by far, my most favorite development is pointing. his hand is the cutest thing when he is pointing. unfortunately i don't have an pics of it. i wish i did cuz i'd put it inside a locket!
