Micah's 1st Birthday!

Micah is officially 1 year old today - he has graduated out of the "months" when people ask how old he is. The day began with Scott and I waking up to our "alarm clock" (Micah jabbering in his room). Scott has made a commitment to want to be the first one to see Micah on his birthday every year, in order to tell him he loves him and is proud of him. Scott already tells Micah these things often, but there is something extra special about being the first one to say it on his son's birthday.


After Scott's father/son talk with Micah, it was time for breakfast...nothing special- just normal baby oatmeal slop washed down with some formula in a sippy cup.






This was then followed by play time for a bit and then nap time.




After Micah's nap, we headed to the car and turned Micah's car seat around (it's nice to have him front-facing now and to be able to glance at him in the review mirror while I drive). This photo shows Micah patiently waiting while dad turned his car seat around.


We hit the road and drove around the city for a while, stopping at a couple stores, and eating an early dinner. We returned home well-fed and tired.


Scott and I are so thankful for the blessing of our son, Micah. I also want to say "thank you" to you, family and friends, who have prayed with and for us along the way, and have shown so much love to our little family of 3. We praise God for you, and we praise God for his goodness to us.
