Super Micah Has Arrived

When Nana and Granddaddy arrived, they brought in a whole bag of goodies for Micah. The goody bag included a new nap pad cover and two loveys for school and a new shirt and cape along with a great foam sword. All goodies were made with love by Nana...minus the sword.

Watch out Superman, we have a new super hero living among us!

Happy Thanksgiving

Happy Thanksgiving from the Honeycutt Family Reunion!

I'm planning to take a few more days off from blogging to enjoy the Thanksgiving holidays and my family. I hope everyone else is having a great holiday too! Later Taters!

1st Dentist Visit

Micah had a successful 1st dentist visit this morning. He was very polite and queit in the waiting room while he flipped through the Highlights magazine.

During the exam, he was a great patient too. The hygenist said his teeth look wonderful and that we are doing a great job brushing.



Who knew that having a picky eater would make a dentist so happy? Micah's dentist was thrilled that he doesn't like juice or soda. She said sticking with milk and water decreases the risk of getting cavities. I suppose we're on the right track.

The dentist gave Micah a timer so he can see how long he should be brushing. He thought it was a toothbrush for the demonstration dog. I was just happy that he was entertained and wasn't screaming like the little girl next door to us.

At the end of our visit, Micah was initiated into the ...

We're so proud!

Bonfire Continued...

Daddy split some wood with Micah by his side.

They took a break to play.

Bonfire

Way back in the summer of 2002, Tom and I spent many nights around bonfires at Camp Foley where we met. Tonight we're getting back to our roots. We've invited over some friends for a bonfire down by the water. Micah enjoyed spending some time down by the water on one of our first cool (in the 50s) days of fall.

Well, company just arrived....I'll post more pics later.

Learning Our Colors & 2 Year Check-up

In our house you have to work twice as hard for your Halloween candy. Last week Micah had to go door-to-door asking for it, and this week he has to tell me the colors of the M&Ms before he can have any.

----------------------------------------------------------

Friday, Micah finally got in to see the pediatrician for his two-year-old check-up. When we first arrived in Dallas we chose a doctor, and we've been in for a couple of sick visits. The pratice seemed to be pretty great. Scheduling a routine visit was a little more challenging. In August, the doctor was completely booked until the beginning of November for routine check-ups. Plus, one day during the last week of October we got a call from the doctor's office notifying us that our doctor wouldn't be able to see Micah and another doctor in the same practice (but not covered by our insurance) would have to see Micah on a different day other than our scheduled appointment. That's when we gave up on the first doctor and found a new pediatrician who was able to squeeze Micah in this past week.

At his long anticipated appointment, Micah got a couple of shots and didn't cry one single tear. In fact, he didn't even flinch because he was so content and focused on his goldfish crackers. Later that evening he pointed to the bandaid and said, "oowee". I suppose it did hurt him a little bit.

And his stats:

Height: 25th percentile

Weight: 45th percentile

Condos available. New construction growth. Lake view. It's a must see!

Tom worked on cleaning up the backyard over the weekend in anticipation of Thanksgiving! We're getting excited to host my ENTIRE immediate family! I can't remember the last time we all spent the night under one roof!
