Micah

Since I wrote about Noah last time, this one will be about Micah! He is full of energy though he often times just wants to lay down on the couch with a blanket. But you have to sit with him =( He got lots of games for christmas and likes to play with them: tumblin monkeys (the favourite), manic martians, lucky ducks, and go fish. He still likes his cars and balls, especially the bouncy ball at the moment. He can't wait for spring I'm sure to get outside and play cricket and baseball...anything with a bat and ball!

We have just recently been able to get Micah to pooh on the toilet. Finally!! He's been asking for a nappy when it was time which was fine, but now its even better! He doesn't like poohing and so tries to hold it in and does a dance a few times before finally agreeing to sit on the toilet. Tonight after asking him all day, I promised to buy him the Postman Pat toys that he saw just today at Sainsbury's. So we'll be going tomorrow to get them =) Its a big box of different characters and stuff so he gets 2 things, then 2 more the next time he poohs on the toilet! Oh the joys right? Thankfully we never had to bribe him to pee in the toilet, that came much easier! And also thankfully, he hardly ever has an accident and has even gone through the night a few times completely dry!

He is talking away, adding new words all the time. Singing sometimes, the few songs that he knows well. (wind the bobbin up, twinkle twinkle, jesus loves me, deep and wide, and row row row your boat.)

that's all i can think of at the moment...and i'll be adding some photos tonight =)

It's funny - Ethan's starting to learn how to sit up on his own. Once he can sit up without support, I'm going to buy him a potty to see if he can go by himself. He already knows to hold it in. He may be the youngest poopy-trained kid yet! I'm sure it'll take a while for the peeing though...
