Shake Rattle and Roll

Micah Jr. has discovered how to hold on to his toys. We have given him his rattle before but he didn't really seem to care. Now that he recognizes that there is something in his hands and the sound that it makes when shaken, he has quite the time with it.

One Small Child

One small hand to hold in yours, One small face to smile, One wet kiss as he says "good-night" One small child. Catch the moment, put it in your heart The years too soon will fly. These are precious moments, more than money can buy. Two small arms to hold you tight, Two small feet to run, Two small eyes full of love for you, One small child. Catch the moment and put it in your heart and never let it go. Save it for the years to come, when he, too will know. One small hand to hold in his One small face to smile. One small kiss and she says "good-night" One small child.

Baby Conversations

Mr. Micah has had a lot to tell us lately. He is gravely concerned about the current affairs of the world and wishes to address us about them.

Too cute for words.

Oh So Loveable

I don't think I'll ever get over the cuteness of Micah's grins, the smiles and the "Grump-A-Lump-A-Gus" faces. He is so very animated that we can't help but laugh when he changes from look to look. Babies are sure entertaining.

We are on our last week at home together. Next Monday it's back to work. I'm not eager to get back but I do miss the kids I've worked with. (For those of you who don't know, I work at a child care center)

Mama and Baby

Words cannot express the joy I feel being home with my baby boy. I just love watching him smile and listening to him babble. Between my school work and him there is never a dull moment. How cute is that smile?!
