I can't believe how long its been since I updated the blog. I've been thinking that I couldn't just start writing again without going back and updating all the big events that have happened in the last 2.5 months. But if I keep up that kind of thinking I won't ever start writing again. So, I'm jumping in...
Something really funny has developed around here at meal times. Some background: I like food. And I'm a slow eater. And apparantly these are both traits that are genetic because I have passed them down to Micah. We already knew he was born a little tubby-wubby with those big cheeks, and now he is living up to those cheeks well! He isn't chubby in the least (although he still has those cheeks!) but his love for food is evident!
He and I are always the last ones at the dinner table. Terry and Caleb eat little and eat fast and then they're gone with better things to do. Micah and I like to talk and laugh while we eat. So we're always left behind, plates still full, and its allowed some fantastic moments of bonding!
Tonight we were out for dinner and Caleb was jumping on the booth, Terry had packed both of their leftovers in boxes and the waiter had cleared their plates. But Micah had half a sandwhich left and my bowl of pasta looked untouched.
We played a little "I Spy" while we finished eating. And Caleb and Terry are working on their patience...
