I want my baby back!

Lincoln is 9 months old. I can't believe he's been out of me that long.
He has some juicy rolls on his thighs and arms. (These pictures don't do them justice.)
He says: Dada, dad and dada some more. I keep trying to brainwash him to say mama but with no luck.
He crawls everywhere and gets into everything.
Uses his tiny sausage fingers to pick up everything off the floor and has been sampling way too many things he shouldn't. (hair, carpet, paper)
Pulls himself up and walks around furniture.
He has 4 teeth. Working on two more!
His eyes are slowly turning brown around the pupil but still greyish blue everywhere else.
He goes to bed around 8:30 every night. And sleeps about 10 hours.
Takes 2 naps a day.
Eats/drinks every 3-4 hours (or less). Doesn't like fruit. But loves his rice and oatmeal cereal.
Wants to eat whatever we have.
Hasn't quite figured out the sippy cup.
And is super lazy and won't hold his own bottle. (can do it...just won't)
He is pretty mellow and easy going. Will smile at anyone.
Getting stranger anxiety.
We love our little chubster!
Stats:
Weight: 18 lbs 5 oz (10%)
Height: 28 inches (25%)
Head circ: 44 cm (10%)

No shots today. Just a finger poke. It was lunch time when we got there but was weighed before he ate so he might be slightly bigger than that. But that's just wishful thinking from me.

He is however 1 lb and 1.25 inches bigger than Jayben at this same age.
He is standing on his own and occassionally tries to take steps! Hopefully that continues in the next few weeks. I don't love the crawling phase.
