Dear Lincoln {8 months}

Dear Lincoln,

Time is flying by at a rate that I didn’t know was possible! I can’t believe that next month you will be as old as my pregnancy lasted, and let me tell you.. this time is going by way faster than that did.

You have been growing at a crazy rate this month. You have two little bottom teeth that you like to munch on everything with. Your new favorite snack is Gerber Puffs, I think you like the blueberry flavor the best. You’ve also tried all kinds of different foods this month, including avocados, bananas, and lots of pureed foods. You aren’t very picky yet and I hope it stays that way.

I know last month I was saying that you might be crawling this month but not quite yet. You are SO close though! You’ve started rocking back and forth on your hands and knees but you have yet to reach your arm out farther. But that’s okay because you can army crawl like a champ and you sure are getting EVERYWHERE!

You have such a little personality now. You like to say “mama” all the time, although I know you’re not making the connection that I’m “mama” yet but it sure is cute to hear. You also love to dance when music comes on, you can really bust a move!

This month we got to celebrate grandpa and grandma’s birthdays! We also celebrated your first Easter and had plenty of time spent with family. Your dad and I even got to go on our first date this month since you were born and you got to hangout with grandma for the day!

It’s really hard for me to believe that you will be a year old in just 4 months, but we’ll have a lot of exciting things happen in the meantime!

Love,
Mom
