I cannot believe that Micaiah is 16 months old. He is acting like a big boy now, but he also still seems like such a baby at the same time.
Clothing Size: 12-18 months, Shoe Size: 4Diaper Size: Medium/3
Fun Facts:~He is generally the happiest boy in the world, as long as you don't try to put him down right after he wakes up. He seriously wants to be held for at least 20 minutes after waking up or he gets hysterical.~He has started playing on the "stage" area in the auditorium with the "big" (toddlers) kids after worship. He thinks he is SO big! There are two little steps, but he knows to back down on his belly.~He is walking full time now!! He started really walking around March 2nd. ~He loves to blow kisses if you say, "Tell ____ love you." He loves to give Hannah Kate hugs & kisses too. He always gives her the best ones. He will not hug us for anything, only Hannah Kate. Last week, she was crying & he came walking over to her super fast to hug & kiss her. It was THE sweetest thing ever.
Food Fun:~Food is not fun these days. Micaiah has a few things he likes & he is not even a tiny bit interested in anything else. The bad thing is, the things he likes are not veggies & fruits. :( Ugh. ~He does have a new favorite: oatmeal. I fix one serving of oatmeal (the real kind with milk & oats) in the morning & he eats most of it & Hannah Kate eats about 4 bites. I did get sneaky yesterday & today & added vanilla & peaches to it, so he did eat peaches (a first!!). I have no idea how long that will last though!~He has started drinking whole milk & is finished nursing.
Things Micaiah LOVES:~Shoes!!! Seriously!! I have never seen a baby love shoes like he does. His favorite are Hannah Kate's sparkly silver shoes or his boots. He brings them to us, yells, "AHHH!" or now "SHOES!" & sticks up his foot. Sometimes he will sit down to put them on & sometimes he will hold on to something & hold out his foot. ~The chickens & Bell Bell--he LOVES going to see them each day. Today, he proudly let the chickens out of the coop! The only problem is, I did not want them out, so I had to round up 17 chickens. Nice. I saw them running out & he squealed really loud & took off running after them. He was so proud of himself. He loves to stand at the window & call for Bell. She usually comes running from the barn & will sit under the window until he leaves. So sweet.~Going outside-sliding, swinging, riding in the wagon & sitting on tractors are his favorite things to do.~He has had one favorite book until last week-now he has two. One is a picture board book that has animals & one page has a tractor. He opens it to that page & waves, says "bye bye," or just carries it around with that page open. Aunt Jana gave him "That's Not My Tractor" & that is his new favorite now!~He really loves Daddy & Papa. They were working on the lawn mower in the yard Saturday & he just stood at the window watching & calling out to Papa. ~Playing in the play kitchen, getting things out of our kitchen drawers to take to the play kitchen, & sitting at the little table in there.
Things Micaiah Does Not Love:~Eating foods that are not on his favorites list ~Having his diaper or clothes changed
Words:~BEH (Bell), arf arf, bye bye, cracker (he said this for a few days), GO! (to Bell), good girl, quack, bawk bawk (chicken noise), shoes, Bible, hi (The first time he said this was after Bible study last week-he walked over to Mr. Harry who was sitting on the "stage" area, leaned over to him & said, "Hiiiiiii." It was the sweetest thing!), grow (in Bible class-read your bible everyday & you'll grow, grow, grow).~We asked him one day what you do when you see a tractor & I promise he said, "I wave." It was plain as day! Wesley & I immediately looked at each other "Did you hear that?!" Of course, he has not said it again!
Signs:dog (2/24), flower, more, tree, bird, baby
This boy is such a blessing!
