Micah is 14 months old today and he is at such a fun age and is such a fun little boy. Here are some pics of what we have been up to lately....
Micah still loves playing in the kitchen...and yes emptying every cupboard and drawer. He is my little helper (I use that term very loosely). And in case you were wondering, he still loves his spatula and takes it everywhere with him (bed, bath, car rides, walks, etc) He doesn't have a blankie or a stuffed animal, just his spatula.
Micah loves being outside. We did have a few nice days (and even an 85 degree day which we took advantage of by going out for ice cream and down to the beach) but actually awoke yesterday to snow which was depressing. However, we have been spending as much time as we can outside playing and going for walks. Micah loves to dig in the dirt, swing, go on the slides, see the dogs and other kids at the park, and run around. You can see from some of the pics that Micah is still in the stage of putting stuff in his mouth...doesn't matter what it is--dirt, acorns, rocks. I can't wait until some consistently nice weather as we will be spending lots of time playing outside and at the beach.

We have also been doing lots of trips to the curious kids museum and today we even went to dairy queen and played in the play land (yes, one of those germ-infested play areas that before you have kids you say you'll never your your kids play on haha). Micah loves to read but has certain books that he wants to read which we do over and over. If I am sitting on the ground he will get his book, back up to me and plop in my lap. Some of his favorite books involve dogs (he loves dogs....and neither Corey nor I do so no we will not be getting a puppy) he will do his dog (or any animal for that matter) sound (grrrrr) and can point out where the dog is on each page. He also has a book called Good Night Baby Jesus and when we get to the page where baby Jesus is he waves and says hi and gives Jesus a kiss. So cute!!!! He is starting to be able to communicate a little but I can tell he still gets frustrated. He waves hi and bye, signs all done, more, and please, and can say hi, mama, dada, and ball. He is down to one nap per day and he has been sleeping a little later in the morning so it is working out. He'll go to bed around 7:30 and sleep till 7 or 7:30 and then do a nap at noon-ish. He's a fun little guy who is just full of energy and literally doesn't stop until I put him down for a nap/bed.
So....that's our update for now more to come later.
