Half Birthday, Puzzles and Ranch Dip

Friday, March 16th was Micah's half birthday. He's now 18 months old.
Micah loves numbers and letters. He can correctly identify all his letters and numbers 1-10. He points out numbers and letters all the time. One night we were driving home and he read the letters on the licence plate of the car in front of us: ADK. He also points out the letters on the QT sign when we drive by. When I ask him if he'd like to take a bath, he asks to draw letters or numbers in the tub with his tub crayons. During Sesame Street I think his favorite part is the number of the day; he yells it out and raises his hands in the air. He can also identify both his first and last name. He's pretty amazing!
He likes to fill in words for songs as I sing them, especially Wheels on the Bus, Veggie Tales Theme Song, Old MacDonald, and Arky Arky. He loves puzzles and coloring. We're working on colors. Almost everything is blue-green these days. He's still eating blueberries daily. On his half birthday, he also discovered ranch dip and how to climb out of his portable crib. I'm praying it'll still be a while before he climbs out of his regular crib. I'll keep you posted...
