Lincoln at 8.5 months

It has been a while since I have given a Link report. Link is now almost 9 months. He is still around 23 lbs and mostly a sitter, but he has grown in other areas, including personality. Link is a great smiler, laugher, and entertainer. He starts shy and goes to excited, only crying when a parent leaves the room from time to time. He will babble for hours in a comfortable setting. Link has 6 teeth now and is eating solids a lot more often. The only thing he has not liked thus far is Gerber turkey. He nurses less during the day but still does about every 2-3 hours at night. Link still takes about 3 naps a day. He is working a lot of facial expressions. Last week was the frown turned into a guppy smack. This week it is a nose wrinkle. He is very observant and explores every aspect of each toy. He has excellent fine motor skills and likes to greet people with an ET finger touch. Link is getting interested in moving. He is pulling up on things and scooting on his butt. He can now roll comfortably on purpose. He does the splits when he need to reach further than he can and does a pivot. He is gorgeous as ever and pleasant to be around.
