Linc is now a hefty 12.1 kilos and has moved up the percentage scale for a 17mth old boy. He's also 86 cm tall and is just under the 97th percentile for height. He's unfortunately picked up a throat infection and so is back on antibiotics. Again. But we're getting used to him getting sick - kids get sick all the time apparently!
Mum has been taking Linc to MiniQ (at Questacon) each week which he goes berserk over (see above photo). That's where he has learnt to sit on the cars (like he now rides on his lion - as per pic at top). Also in the top pic is the new Inglesina Mhome Zuma highchair which is so much like a Recaro race seat!
He's now so aware of what is going on around him - he knows if Dad is going to work and waves goodbye. He knows someone has come home when he hears the garage door - and he runs to the door and starts knocking on it. As soon as you say it's bath time he goes running for the bath. He does a cute little elephant noise and raised arm whenever he sees an elephant, and does dog noises when he hears the dogs next door or sees dogs on the TV.
His feature wall is now painted (5 coats later - don't ask) with his bed arriving tomorrow (edit: photo added post bed arrival)! We are planning on a trip to Ikea in the near future to pick up a matching shelving unit. Might take the F250 and see what else is there to fill up the back of the truck, hey Dad!...Oh, and we also paid the obstetrician to deliver 2.0. $3800, with a $463 refund from Medicare. Thanks Australian Government - we get penalised because we are forced to see a specialist obstetrician. Something not right there.
