Mitchie

This is Mitch's preferred tv watching posture. He's talking so much now and I notice such a big change in his personality lately. He seems to be so much happier and more content. They're noticing this at school too.  He seems really proud of himself when he gets his point across.  Last night he started with a really bad cough right before dinner. In the middle of the night he was coughing so hard that he threw up. I had to rinse him off in the tub and he looked like the most pathetic little creature wrapped up in his towel, lying on my shoulder.  I thought he was falling asleep, but then I heard him say in the quietest little voice, "Cough. Yucky. Sick." Later, we brought him into our bed and he crawled right up to Drew and started rubbing his back, whispering, "Daddy. Nice."  He loves saying hi to everyone and about 100 times a day he'll make his rounds "Hi mommy! Hi daddy! Hi finny!" And repeats it over and over.    :)  He and finn are playing together a lot more too. Mostly, mitch likes to imitate whatever finn is doing. They spend a lot of time chasing each other around the house, with mitch giggling and squealing with excitement.  I was sick today with the stomach flu and both boys were so good all day. We were watching a show in my bed and finn turned to mitch and said, "mitchie, let's go in my room and play so we don't bother mom."  They were funny and sweet all day long, thank goodness because I was miserable.  The first thing finn said to me this morning was "mom! Let's pretend I'm a poisonous snake and you're a little kid who went outside with no shoes or socks on!" He cracks me up! :)
