Lincoln is a funny guy. How can I even describe what a cool little person he is with my limited vocabulary? He is the sweetest, cutest little guy you've ever seen. He is very determined, a little unpredictable and very physical, so for instance, I'll be hugging him or telling him how much I love him and he'll blow a raspberry in my face- (read: spit!) Whaaat? It's almost like he can't help it- like he feels the love, and doesn't know how to deal with it except to be silly. He has really been working on being gentle with Franky and now that Franky is older- he likes Lincoln more every day. He is always telling me, "Love you mom!" as he's leaving to play with friends or walking out of a room. He tries really hard to be good. He plays so well with friends, and he loves to tag along with whatever Elliott and Ollie are doing.
Linc runs errands with me all the time, even though I know it's not his favorite thing. He is always asking to play with a friend or cousin, or play the wii. He has really started drawing cute things this year, and coloring really well. He is learning to write and always wants to spell things. Usually when he writes his name, he likes to write To Lincoln. And he likes to write mom and dad and draw hearts too. He will sing me songs from primary every once in a while.
He loves to play with Legos. He is always asking Ollie to jump on the tramp, to play/imagine Transformers or Lego Movie games with him. They play so good together, Linc always calls Ollie his best friend. He also wants to play with Ollie's friends, even if Ollie doesn't. He says the cutest prayers and always says "Thanks for my best friend Ollie"and says thanks for all his brothers and asks to help them not fight.
He loves to put Franky's binky in, even if he's just playing and doesn't need it. And loves to give him his blanket. He is his little protector during the day while everyone else is at school.
He can always be found shirtless because if he feels even a tiny bit hot, he will take it off. Even in the middle of the winter. He is also very into shorts, since we had a few warm Spring days, so now he thinks wearing them every day is great, even if it's snowing. He has been known to sleep without pajamas at night.
Our little Linc will go places in his life! He is a fun, funny, exciting boy and we love him so much! I had so much fun sorting through Linc's pictures from the last year. Maybe if I just do this at least once a year, I'll have my scrapbooking taken care of. (This post probably has more pictures than my whole childhood scrapbook... haha.)
