Walk Walk Walk Turn Walk Walk Walk Repeat

This is Micah's new favorite thing to do right before bed and that's fine by me. He wore himself out last night doing this for 30 minutes straight and then slept through the night.

Supper Time

Micah's Grandpa Deen has been in town this weekend. Last night he took us out to dinnner at Earl's. Micah really enjoyed flirting with the waitresses and dancing to the music. So far, it looks like he gets his dance moves from his uncle Jason. He's just lacking the ability to snap his fingers.

Say Cheese

Trying to get everyone to look at the same time and smile proves to be difficult. I guess we're at that stage.












Maybe we're better off trying to get pictures of just Micah.

Cup

On Sunday Coach Donny called batting practice that quickly turned into beer-in-hand batting practice...well, at least the ones shagging balls had their hands full. I sat out with Micah due to my bum thumb that still hurts. Tom took a break to visit us under the shade tree and left his empty cup within Micah's reach. I believe that cup was the most entertaining thing he came across all day. Check it out.



BTW, we lost our game tonight, but Tom had a really great hit to right field and managed to pull off a triple. Yay, Tom!

MBA

So, I've talked about going back to school to get my MBA for a while now, and I've thought about it for even longer. Today, while I was writing one of my two entrance essays, the fear started to set in. I asked myself over and over if I'm ready for this. Weekends spent on the computer. Late nights spent on the computer. Every free moment on the computer.

I spent 5 hours working on one essay today. Do you know how many loads of laundry I could do in that time? Or how much dusting and vacuuming and other misc chores I could do in that time? It has been the better part of 5 years since I've had to write any sort of academic paper. Once upon a time, I could churn out papers like nobody's business. Now, I'm slower than ever. Will I get back into the swing of things? Perhaps. I may let the speed and ease of the second essay be the determining factor. I may need a little motivation and support and a few prayers from those of you out there reading this.

Micah and his pool

I had fun swimming in my brand new pool today!








Look. I can stand on my own. Naked.


I like skinny dipping in the backyard.

Another Day

We took a walk to the park this afternoon and noticed these extra large dandelions along the way.


Despite his new ear infection that he came down with yesterday, Micah enjoyed playing on the playground.
