I absolutely LOVE this phase we are in right now, such a happy boy!!
9 month stats (completely off preemie charts and on regular ones) : Weight- 18lbs 15oz , 25th% Length- 29.25in, 75th% Head- 44cm, 10-25th%
Here’s what’s been happening this past month:
-Drinks water/juice from sippy cup. He has so much fun with this and loves to bang it!
-Has 8 teeth now!!
-Lincoln completely enjoys spitting and doing this fake cough, he is pretty funny or so he thinks
-Is rolling all over to get places and starting to scoot. He doesn’t stay still for very long anymore
-Diaper changes have gotten very difficult as he wants to move all the time
-He battled a diaper rash for 6 weeks but finally found it what the cause was. We switched from Pampers Swaddlers to Pampers Cruisers (I didn’t think anything of it since it was still Pampers). However the Cruisers have a blue lining which is a dye, and every time it got wet the dye spread therefore causing this horrible hive like rash. It is called Diaper Dye Dermatitis. Now we know!
-Went to his first grill out/bon fire at Black Hawk Park
-He is a huge fan of taking baths and going outside so I know he will love the pool this summer!
-Got to go to garage sales:)
-Had first overnight sleepover at Gma and Gpa Manfulls without mommy and daddy!
-Got to help Gma and Gpa Kelly move into their new house last weekend!
-Lincoln is still a huge fan of food. He eats a lot of finger foods now. He has tried many more fruits this month: strawberries, pineapple, cantaloupe, blueberries, pears and peaches. He also started eating pancakes and broccoli. There is not one food this boy doesn’t like! He recently starting only having 4 bottles a day. He was only drinking 6-7oz but his Dr. wants him to increase that to 8oz (wants a total of 32oz a day) and she said she wants him on formula until 15 months.
Now we see a lot of Lincoln’s spitting and fake cough faces so I thought I would share some:)
