Micah's New Moves


Lately, Micah has gone through some kind of mental growth spurt. He is so very busy, but also very busy communicating and understanding so much of what we talk with him about! Pointing is his main communication, but it is very effective. He is also very huggy and smiley and continues to be his good natured, charming self. When hanging out with his Nana and Naomi, he started to look a little sad. Nana asked Naomi, when he makes this face does it mean he is going to cry? And Naomi responded, "He never makes that face." I am continually grateful for these two!

What we're learning about our Micah in the last two weeks:

He loves taking baths. If you say the word "bath" in his presence, he points towards the bathroom door and then walks there to bang on the door until we run him a bath. The other day he took two (this is not rare considering his requests and how messy he gets eating).

He loves food and would eat all day long if we let him. Every time he sees anyone with a piece of food in their hand he points at it, asking for some.

He loves his sister (okay, so this we've known for a while). They love to give hugs, and when Naomi kisses the bottom of his feet, he raises them up asking for more. (okay, so that may sound a bit gross, but it is super cute, and probably won't last too long.)

Finally, Micah loves music. He points at the stereo, asking for me to turn it on, and then dances with his sister in the living room, spinning in a circle. Check out the video - I finally caught them in action.
