Hi folks

"Look mom, I can do it myself!"
Nothing stands in Micah's way

Well, after two straight days of rain from Gustav, we're still here, minus a few ceiling tiles at work. We did shoot commercials on campus yesterday, which was a very wet affair, but we managed. Dan and Micah are still under the weather, but Dan's fever is gone and Micah is going to the Dr today to have his cough evaluated. I am still holding out! We are trying to teach Micah to use a cup. He really isn't interested in the sippy ones so we're just going with the real thing. Of course, it's usually pretty messy, so we practice when he's in the tub, as you can see. So far, he's got the hang of it, but drinking from the bottle is so much easier so he usually prefers that. This second photo is of Micah figuring out that he can just push the plastic bins out the way. We had been using these to block his passage into the hallway, but I guess we can't do that anymore! Micah's the kind of kid that has a plan and is going to figure out how to get it done.
