What has Micah been up to?

Micah adores his puppy we got him for Christmas. He carries it around the house with his blue blankies and loves to play and sleep with him.

Five Little Monkeys Jumping on the Bed~ Micah enjoyed this story recently before nap. I heard him jumping around on his bed making monkey noises during naptime. I peaked in to catch him acting out the story. It is pretty cute when his little mouth makes his monkey sounds because his lips form almost a perfect circle.

Wrestling~ You never know when he's going to come full force from behind and take you down. He also likes to run full speed and body slam you. You have to make sure you are fully alert if laying on the floor because you are his prime target.

Playing with the Superheroes! He enjoys making his guys fight one another and has some great sound effects too. He recently ate off two sponge hands from a small flexible Spiderman. I had to sneak that one into the garbage. Micah enjoys putting the heroes in cars but gets very frustrated when the cars are way too small for the bodies.

He has recently started coloring more with his brother and sister and is doing a little less of biting the tips of the markers or crayons off. How many tips can one boy eat?

Yea! He's finally saying "mama"! Along with dada, hiyee, mo (more), bye , moo, roar, maow (meow), ruff ruff, and the famous monkey noises. He still not talking a lot but it is fun when he decides to say one occasionally. He tends to enjoy breaking into song once in a while too. We have absolutely no idea what he is singing but you can tell he's singing.

He's just learned how to open the fridge and his favorite thing is summer sausage. So, he just opens the fridge and helps himself to a piece of summer sausage, closes the door and runs off to eat (while our dog closely follows). You can often catch him pushing a chair up to the microwave, sticking things in there, and closing the door. We have started to keep the bread on the counter instead of the bread drawer because he is constantly in there getting pieces of bread out.

His favorite job is putting his clothes and anything else he can find down the laundry chute! He also likes to get into the bathroom, get toothpaste on his toothbrush, and brush his teeth.

He's a busy busy boy and is extremely hard to keep up with but I'm so thankful for the opportunity to be here experiencing every exhausting minute of it.
