Linc's Growing Up Rundown

Linc's been incredibly entertaining lately. Our very own circus monkey :) Here are some of his Lincoln-isms and escapades in October and November. By the way, he has officially reached a milestone in height: 3 feet! I remember when I reached that height. . .in the 7th grade. :)

• One morning Monica was getting ready for work. Lincoln was laying in bed with me and then said "Mommy go work, Lincoln go school, Daddy go airplane." Guess I've been doing a lot of traveling lately.
• Lincoln was in the bathtub and sang the whole ABC song all by himself.
• Lincoln was Buzz Lightyear for Halloween this year. In the weeks before the big night, Linc wore his costume constantly and developed sound effects for it. When he pressed the small buttons he said Buzz Lightyear lines like "Buzz Lightyear to the rescue!" and "To infinity and beyond!" When he pressed the big red button, he said "pssht" and raised his arms up for his wings. We got a good kick out of that.
• Uncle John came over to babysit Linc one night. Linc looked at us and said "My John, you go away!"
• After many long years of searching, I finally found one of my favorite childhood books. It was out of print but has just been rereleased again: Bears in the Night, a Berenstein Bears classic! We got it, read it about a million times, and Lincoln can now read the whole book. I got it recorded one night as well.
• Lincoln was eating crackers. Monica told him there weren't anymore. Lincoln thought for a second and said, "Go to Walmart and get more!" We're glad to see Linc knows how the world works. When it's all gone, go to Walmart to get more.
• We were watching Star Wars (Lincoln's self-proclaimed favorite movie!) He picked up a toy bowling pin and used it as a lightsabre while he watched. It was hilarious! Behold the skills:
  

Good stuff!
