Here Comes Santa Claus




Well, Santa Claus met Micah although they weren't formally introduced b/c Micah decided to take a snooze while Mom and Dad waited in line.

Last night we had "Light the Way to Christmas" at church. It consisted of a chili dinner and desserts with entertainment by the choir and Santa. And, they had a Tree sale conveniently located on the way to the parking lot, so we picked up our tree and wreath and headed home. I L-O-V-E the smell of a real tree! We've worked so hard to get the tree up and decorated today, but we've only gotten the lights on...and they aren't finished yet. Micah seems to distract us quite a bit. Perhaps we'll finish sometime this week--who knows!

Frosty the Snowman





Ok, so I realize the last few posts haven't really included Micah, but I know mom and dad enjoy seeing the snow just as much...well, not quite as much, but it's up there.

I'll post some pictures of Micah later tonight or tomorrow.

It has been snowing since before I woke this morning. I've already shoveled the driveway and the sidewalk twice and it just keeps coming down. I'd say we have at least 6in now and will likely get another couple inches or more.

After I got home from work it started doing all of this...and yes, I had to work today...yuck!

Micah is doing fine. He and Tom stayed home together and watched basketball today. They even went for a stroller ride to the park.

Tomorrow should be a relaxing day. If everything goes as planned we will buy a live Christmas tree and decorate it. Oh, fun!

New Tub

As Henry would say, "Make sure to get the taters out of his ears"




Micah and Daddy went to the store today to get a new tub b/c mommy and daddy couldn't figure out how to get Henry's tub to hold water without leaking. He likes his new tub. Check out the videos.

A day with daddy



Micah finished his first week of daycare. By today he has gotten a little more familiar and comfortable with the whole daycare day. He still isn't sleeping very well, but he's back to eating normally. You can't keep a tank like him from eating well for too long...ha ha! Hopefully, one of these days he'll start to sleep at school and play with us when he gets home in the evening instead of snoozing.

Tomorrow Micah and daddy are spending the day together. We are fortunate enough that Micah will get to spend every other Friday with his daddy on his days off from work...well, unless daddy decides to go skiing.

1st Day

Time is limited b/c I need to get ready for work, so this will be short and to the point.

Micah made it through his first full day of daycare. I missed him so much that I had to go visit him at lunch. I got him down for his first nap of the day which according to his teacher didn't last very long after I left. He didn't sleep much while he was there. Maybe about an hour to an hour and a half. When I picked him up for the day, he was so pooped. I looked in his eyes and felt so bad for him.

I took him home and fed him and let him take a nap. Then he got up and watched the basketball game on tv with his daddy.

I guess after not sleeping all day, he was able to sleep 7 1/2 hours straight last night. I guess that's good, but I feel so bad that he can't fall asleep at daycare.

Gotta go get him ready...any myself too.
