Micah's Baptism

Hey all - Just wanted to let you know that Micah's baptism is scheduled for August 31st at our church. Grammy and possibly Jopy will be here for it and we'll be sure to take lots of pics for those who live so far away! At our church, the baptism is held during the normal service and is a time to welcome the child into the body of the church and introduce him to the congregation. We waited so long to do it because Micah was pretty unpredictable for the first few months, so we think this is a good age to have it done. The pastor is coming over next week to meet with us and spend a little time with Micah.

Grammy is driving right now and will be here tonight. And we're also excited that MeeMee and Poppy are going to come visit in October. Micah loves to have visitors :)

Micah feeds himself...

Well, only this one time cause he was a mess! He isn't quite old enough to feed himself yet but this one night he really wanted the bowl!

Also, he is a man on the move! We can't get him to sit still for long. He is all over the living room and is drawn to the fireplace and entertainment center - of course, the two places we don't want him to go.

Enjoy the pics!

Here is your Micah fix for the weekend

Micah is getting very mobile! He will crawl/inchworm style over to the basket and pull himself up onto it. No, he didn't climb into the basket on his own, that was mommy's doing and as she was taking a picture, he fell out....oops! Enjoy!!

Lets see if this works...

More awesome....

More awesome news, after 3 nights of weaning (i.e. crying) Micah off night feedings, last night he slept thru the night with no crying from 9pm til 7am. Yippee!!!!

Micah Is Awesome

Micah is now working his way up onto all 4's. If you are thinking about visiting, you should do it soon!

6 Months Old

Micah turned 6 months old yesterday - hard to believe he's already halfway to 1 year! He weighed in at 16.2 lbs (25th%) and is 27 inches tall (74th%). He is now eating rice cereal, apples, bananas, pears, squash, oatmeal, sweet potatoes, and carrots. He did not like peas, but we'll try green beans soon. He's wearing size 6-9 months and moved up to Stage 2 foods (as soon as we're out of Stage 1 in the pantry at least). He's taking 2-3 naps a day, ranging from 45 min to 2 hours. Mommy likes the long naps so Micah wakes up rested and she gets some stuff done. He is starting to roll and creep like an inchworm....crawling is on the horizon. His new word is boooof, like a puff of air. He is an awesome kid!
