Many of you already know Micah has a super cool double tooth. I could not wait to see what it would look like once it grow completely in. Now that is has, I’m surprised by how normal it looks. Is this just because I’m used to it? Or is it because it really is not that noticable?
All of his incisors have at least broken through, so the only teeth remaining are the 2nd year molars. That means teething is almost over!!
Eric recently did some computer work for an old coworker, and as payment, he gave us a beautiful bunk bed, which we plan on using for Micah once he is old enough. (He’ll sleep on the bottom first, of course.) When Eric was picking up the bed, his coworker also threw in a large road rug. I’m so jealous of my little man Micah; I always wanted one of these when I was a kid. Well, it is never too late…. I have been playing cars on this thing with my little dude and I am probably having more fun that he is!
I have been taking advantage of the way Micah seems to absorb everything right now by teaching him skills that are very important for little kids, like crawling under the bed. We had a blast playing peek-a-boo last night. He would crawl under his bed, giggle and play underneath for a few minutes, then pop out of one of the sides and yell, “boo!” I also taught him how to blow dandelion seeds into the neighbor’s yard yesterday.
First he blew on it like a plate of hot food, then he proceeded to rip it from the stem and crush it between his tiny fists. That’s what he does to pretty much anything he encounters. Imagine my panic when he picked up a catepillar at my parents’ house this weekend. Don’t worry, I saved the catepillar, but for a second there I thought I was going to be washing a fuzzy mess off Micah’s palm. Do catepillars bite if you squeeze them?
