1. Rolled from back to front
2. Sits up on his own
3. Pulls himself up to standing
4. Crawls on hands and knees

Read them and be amazed as we have been all day. Jamie said look he’s crawling on his hands and knees and we thought that’s the reason he has been sleeping alot, Reagan always used to sleep alot in the build up to something big. Little did we know that at 32 weeks old he would also FINALLY suss rolling from back to front instead of laying there crying like a stranded bug, two big things to accomplish in a day.

Don’t look away though mom and dad watch this, he only crawls goes and sits up from crawling and then from his belly too. Wow Linc that is the biggest day of your life I bet you’ll need to sleep now?

Nope, he only goes and grabs the fire guard and drags himself up to a standing position JEEZ that was amazing but was it a fluke? When we put him down for a nap in the afternoon he drifted straight off but an hour or so later when we returned to the kids room he was stood holding onto the cot side. (We had to lower the cot base straight away because he was hanging over the side as it was.

So there you go what a day in Lincolns life

Bank Holiday weekend begins with an early morning wake up at around 3am with Lincoln screaming the place down so much that even Reagan is disturbed when he and a Police helicopter above the house shattered the silence (it wasn’t the noise police after Lincoln luckily!) we all got back to sleep around 4am and when I heard the kids chirping at 7:15 I decided I should get up and give Mommy a chance to lie in.

Big mistake, I walked in to the cherubs bedroom and was greeting with two smiling faces and “that” odour! Its usually Lincoln so I let Reagan slide down the stairs on her “butt” as mommy has taught her, and thats when I realised that Lincoln didn’t smell…!

Nooooooo!

Even the thought of what Reagan had just done to the contents of her nappy filled me with dread, and the task that lay ahead. By the time I got to the living room she had assumed the position on the floor and was waiting for dad to change her nappy! All I will say is I did Lincoln first trying to prolong my imminent fate but he wasn’t to be out done as he gave a little shiver as I removed his nappy and proceeded to piss on my leg, cheers Lincoln.

It was not good oh my goodness it was everywhere, but contained which was a miracle. I just rolled me sleeves up and dived in (so to speak) Now anyone who says wipes are expensive and you should use just one or two per nappy change is talking “shit”…. literally! This was a 10 to 15 wiper and I am not ashamed to admit it, I would like to see someone clean that up with 2 frickin’ wipes Sorry Reagan if you’re reading this as an adult lol!

Anyway we sorted the situation and went to have breakfast during which Lincoln’s bottle of milk worked him and as I ate me cheerio’s I could hear him straining like a good un to the side of me so I chose not to look or breathe in and cracked on with me breakfast as a solitary tear rolled down my cheek….

Tonight Lincoln started clapping along to Gigglebellies while he and Reagan sat on mommys knee, and apparently this is quite advanced to be clapping at 31 weeks….ADVANCED That’s my boy!

Jamie pointed at the number on the front of Reagan’s nappy and asked her What number is that and she sat there and said “Five”

WOW!

I could not believe she knew it was a 5 So mommy got one of Lincoln’s nappy out and asked her what the number was on the front of it and she thought for a moment and said “Four”

WOW!

We are in so much trouble with her if she is this intelligent a week before her second birthday she’ll be running rings around us soon if she isn’t already…?
