He's Walking

This post is about a month overdue, but Micah has starting walking. It happened so gradually, it's hard to say when he started, he just added one more step to his longest run the day before and eventually he was walking. I decided to put a video in late anyway, just because it's fun for me to look back and see how much he's changed. It's only been a month and I can hardly remember what it was like when he was just crawling. A lot of people told me to be glad that he wasn't walking yet because he would be in to everything, but I wouldn't really say he's busier now, he was already a crazy speed crawler and into everything, but he definitely falls a lot more, on the flip side though, we're saving a lot of wear and tear on jeans!

did you catch the nice save so his head doesn't hit the cement? I flinch every time!

Weekend With Friends

A couple weekends ago we went up to Moorhead to visit our friends the Olsons. It was a fun and relaxing trip, no agenda, just hanging out, it was great. Their 3 year old, Lily, kept Micah very entertained, which was awesome.

It was a long drive, so we did a few things to break it up...

switched drivers...

We stopped at a grocery store somewhere between Alexandria and Moorhead. I think small towns are the only place to still find horse rides at the stores, and it was a penny!

Lily wanted to dress up and have Micah be Tinkerbell. I love their faces, seriously, a picture is worth a thousand words...

Happy Halloween

I had to work this weekend on Halloween so Micah and Kim came to the hospital to hand out candy to the nurses, unfortunately Micah isn't as good at handing out candy as he is holding it with a death grip until it's melted beyond recognition.

Here's our little Elmo...

It was so funny when he looked down and you just saw the Elmo face.

Kim and Micah stopped at a few friends' houses after the hospital. Thanks Steph for these great pictures!
