kitchen help

Micah saw my gloves beside the sink and put them on, needing a little help with the second one.  He told me "I wash the dishes." Well, ok, let's see how this goes.  "I need a chair."  "I need some water."   I gave him his plastic dishes and a soapy sponge.  There was a lot of pouring water back and forth, some ended up on the floor as I expected, and there no clean dishes by the end, however, I see a promising future for my kitchen helper.

Happy New Year

So Gideon is already 6 months old and loves his first tastes of food.  Micah has said he wants the green beans so maybe Gideon's eating of vegetables will spark it for Micah again. The kids and I started out the new year with colds.  So far John has stayed healthy so hopefully he's missed it.  An antibiotic for Micah and easier breathing for me and we seem to be on the mend.

Micah keeps asking what happened to his Christmas tree- maybe we shouldn't have taken it down after he was asleep.  Ornaments have helped us remember to tell him the stories of us as kids and our life together so far.

Christmas time is here...

Merry Christmas!

the growing boy

5 months old already!  His laugh is the best and he's a generally happy guy.  Micah cracks me up pretty much every day with the random things he says "I'm going to the office.  Work on a few things."  Sometimes, I ask him what he's doing and he tells me "i'm doing something else."  Buttons are "bunts," he's infatuated with "quirrels"and "moke deteckers" and points them out all the time in our house and every where he else he sees one.  I'm not sure why the infatuation with those.
