Micaiah is 11 months old and walking!! He took his first intentional step last Thursday and hasn't stopped since! He still will drop down and do his bear crawl if he wants to get somewhere lickity split, but he is able to go further and further on his chubby little legs every day. He frequently says Dada and Momma, but his favorite word, by far, is Bella. It is often the first word out of his mouth in the morning and the last word out at night, as he lifts his sleepy head off of my shoulder in one last, very feeble attempt to stay awake. He calls for her from wherever he is... in bed, in the bathroom, in the car, at the store, in church... and especially when he is in his highchair. He gets a kick out of either feeding her directly from his hand, or tossing his food on the floor as a little feast for his faithful companion. And she, in turn, is of course more than happy to oblige. Micaiah also loves to sing and clap, often simultaneously, and to give high fives. He also recently figured out how to take his diaper off. He will be busy playing one minute and the next I look up to see a naked little bum zipping about. I have to admit it is a really cute little hind end, but I'd have to say that this is one trick I wish he would unlearn, as it is not very easy to get a diaper on the little monkey in the first place! He is understanding more and more and turning into such a big boy. I can't believe how quickly time flies.
