Monday

I never thought I would find myself thinking it is too quiet again, but I'm sitting in the office with only a couple other people and the thought crossed my mind. The silence is strange and I kinda miss Micah talking and grunting in the background and possibly the crying too. I suppose the office will be a ghost town for the rest of the week.

Mom and Dad have decided to stay the rest of the week and keep Micah at home. I'm thrilled b/c we don't have to pay full tuition for daycare this week and maybe, just maybe, he'll be 100% healthy and well for a few days. And if he's well, that means I can finally get over this cold without picking up the next one as soon I'm feeling a little better.

Micah had a great weekend. He had carrots for the first time and LOVED them. He couldn't get enough of them yesterday afternoon. He ate and ate and cried for more. By the time he finished, his face was as orange as his hair. He has also realized the potential of his hands. He is grabbing and picking up things and putting them straight in his mouth. It's quite entertaining to watch him discover all of his toys and what they do and what they taste like.
