Micah Tidbits

For the journal I'm keeping about Micah (pretty sporatic now that I do the blog), I wrote a list to describe him right now. Thought some of you might like to read the list. It's in no particular order, just the order that came out of my brain. (Hmm. Maybe that could be analyzed...)
*Counts objects accurately to 49
*Out of the blue, he regularly says, "I WISH I was a FISH", emphasizing the rhyme, to be silly
*Very good at using computer, mouse, etc
*Connect 4-- purposefully matched the patterns of checkers they had on the instruction paper
*Plays with trains and trucks and cars some, but mostly only if Daddy is playing with him
*Plays with Trio blocks set almost daily-- makes many different creations he calls "worlds" (comes from Mario Bros)
*Loves watching the girls play Wii-- doesn't ask to play it himself yet
*Laughed and laughed thru Dumbo the other day
*Laughs a lot at I Love Lucy, Laurel and Hardy. Loves physical humor
*Likes to play with hose and squirts things outside
*Likes to play with water and some kitchen utensils in the sink in the kitchen-- standing on a chair
*Loves sweets and crackers and bread and peanutbutter
*Hates vegetables and many other foods-- pretty picky
*Only drinks water and milk
*Loves playing on playground equipment-- running around by himself or with other kids
*Into the kiddie tattoes-- usually asks K to put them on for him. He has a lightning one on right now. Earlier in the week, it was a fish.
*Likes to "color"-- mostly it's scribbles still, even tho he can write many letters (his name and other letters) and can draw shapes
*Likes to dance and it looks hilarious
*Loves to go to his "class" at church-- waltzes right in-- not matter what church we're at
*Loves to be hyper with Claire-- run and laugh and tease-- very loud
*Mostly obedient
*Sometimes picks up his own toys without being reminded
*Has great dimples-- people are always saying he's so cute, and that's probably mostly cuz of the dimples and that he smiles at people a lot
*Counts on his fingers to 10 in a strange order-- ring finger is always last to go up
*Very ready to speak to people
*Favorite videos are probably Pooh and Blues Clues and Signing Time, but he loves Dora, Diego, Einsteins, and others, too
*He says "or sumpin" (something) after many of his sentences
*Does not ask WHY questions much
*When playing or doing computer, he will talk to me all the way thru it-- wants me to interact and see things on it
*Talks almost daily about turning 4-- 7 months still!
*Likes to watch and help me make cookies or help Daddy outside
*Watches for the garbage truck every week-- the workers look for him in the window and wave back at him
*When playing with littler kids, he has some sharing issues-- will take things away or push or hit sometimes
*A couple weeks ago, he spent time in the Time Out chair at church-- Jackson was being very naughty and Micah went following along
*Says most of his letters correctly now except R's and blends. Has a lisp with S's.
*Is scared of "scary monsters"
*Sucks his thumb, but it's mostly in bed now
*Pretends out loud
*Loves Hide and Seek, and now mostly gets the idea of it. Can't follow the sound of Daddy's whistle, tho
*Says "I'm hungry" a lot. Often when he's just bored, tho.
*Can read the numbers on a digital clock correctly
*Loves books and being read to
