Micah

Micah is 2 and 3/4. With birthday festivities coming up for Lea and Jonah, Micah really is anxious for it to be his birthday (sorry buddy not for three more months). This picture was taken by request from this little guy while he was playing with cups and making a cup family. He came downstairs and said "Mom look! Take a picture!" He told me all about the Mommy cup, Daddy cup, and so on. Micah talks so much! When we pick up Lea and Jonah from school, I ask them about their day and sometime during their telling of events Micah shouts out, "It's my turn!" He has to wait (which he doesn't like) but he gets his turn to talk. Micah already wants to be in kindergarten as he frequently tells me when we drop off his brother and sister at school in the mornings and Micah always does his "homework" - coloring in the designated homework coloring book - while Lea and Jonah are doing theirs. He wants to be like his brother and sister. He adores them! He can count to ten but he tries counting to twenty. He just mixes up all the teens. (His counting skills began with mommy counting while teaching aerobics class. Micah just picked it up and started counting with me one day.) He is learning his letters and we find letters while at the grocery store. Micah can identify about 5 letters on his own. He is very smart and will be ready for school before too long. Although he does have a champion pouty face and he is no stranger to throwing fits now and then, Micah is amazing. We love our little guy!
