Seven.

Just quickly so I can get back to watching the Olympics, lol...

My baby turned SEVEN today. Oy. This boy. He seriously keeps us on our toes and entertains us and drives us crazy. Life would be boring without him and he knows it. ;) Seven quick thoughts about him:

1. He's still content to be my baby...still gives hugs and waves at me from classes.
2. His attention to detail is freakin' amazing (scary almost). For example, as we've all been watching the Olympics, at most any given time we can simply turn to Micah and ask him for stats. The boy knows what size shoes Missy Franklin wears, what everyone's scores were in gymnastics, whether we're watching a semifinal or a qualifier and how many more heats remain...you get the picture. (For what it's worth, I'm fairly certain that a portion of the time he's just completely making stuff up, but he does so with such conviction that we just never know, lol.)
3. He's adorable with his missing front teeth. ;)
4. He recently switched to boxer briefs and is hilariously proud of how he looks in them.
5. He's so proud of the progress he's made this summer in his swim lessons. (Mind you, he's made more progress in his attitude about swimming and in his own little head than in actual technique, but it's definitely progress, lol.)
6. He has few friends his own age, preferring friends his brothers' ages...as he thinks of himself as older anyhow. 
7. He's recently decided he looks best in sleeveless shirts, which makes keeping him dressed tricky as he only has two. (He's also fairly picky about what makes a suitable sleeveless shirt, lol.)

We've already done the party and all, so tonight is just low key, but the boy's pretty dang impressed with himself:

Sigh. ;)
