If Anybody Is Keeping Track, Lincoln Now Has

....More Teeth than Hairs. Teeth 7, Hairs 6. It's a close race.

We discovered tooth #7 today. He got the first 6 all within about two weeks when he was six months old. Fenn got his full set of baby teeth very early as well. If anybody needs to know how to have kids that grow their teeth fast.....just do everything we've done for the last 3 years. I'll send you a list.

I guess we're good at growing kids that sleep well at night also. Fenn has slept 12 hours since he was 6 months old. And Lincoln doesn't quite make it that far, but close. Lincoln naps a little better than Fenn does.....but that doesn't take much. I'm well rested today because after Mommy gave Lincoln a snack at 5:30 while she got ready for work, the little guy went back to sleep until 8:15. Growing tooth #7 can wear a kid out.

5 days until Birthday #3 for Fenn.....and boy does he know it. If I recall, the first day we counted down was around 44 days.....and he's counted down since then. Although he's a little confused and not particularly happy when I tell him there will be parties that aren't on the 23rd. That just doesn't quite compute....and his mind is kind of like a miniature computer.

They have started playing more together....I can see a difference even in the last week. And I guess I need to calm down, because when I turn to tell Fenn to be gentle, Lincoln is smiling and giggling. It starts with Fenn hugging Lincoln and patting him on the head.....and turns into basically a wrestling match. Fenn is bigger and stronger.....but Lincoln quickly goes for the hair. I've been a little brother for a long time.....so I understand those tactics. Hair pulling, biting, head butting.....it's all fair game when you are half the size of your opponent.
