12.8 kg 31 August

Linc continues to grow well and, just like his Dad, is built more like a greyhound than a bulldog. 31 August weigh-in was 12.8 kg, with a near miss as Linc would not lay down and almost slid right off the scales (see above photo!)...

He continues to have nights where he has difficulty dropping off to sleep without someone stroking his cheek with his wrap (see below photo - one for each ear!). It's definitely down to the fact that at this age, toddlers have trouble switching off at the end of the day. This was evidenced tonight by Linc reliving some of the events of today - like when he was sneezing in the car on the way back from the shops. He found it funny and so was doing pretend sneezes. But he never did it again all day, until tonight when he relived the event as he was trying to 'switch off'. Pretty amazing. Another thing that isn't helping is that his molars are STILL coming down, as well as teeth either side of his bottom teeth - that's why he has his dummy more often than we would like - without it he just sucks on his fingers until they are a bleeding mess.

Dad's second fathers day with Linc today - he was lucky enough to get a DVD boxset which Mum and Dad can watch in the 5 weeks Dad has off on leave for the birth of 2.0. Linc also got Dad a 'Wheels' subscription, 3 new ties and a shirt...very lucky Dad!
