Micah's First Christmas

Merry Christmas!!!!
Granny's house



ahhh palm trees


Gotta love the reindeer antlers


Waving "bye"



Micah did good with Santa-just stared at him and pulled his beard




We visited my (Kim's) Mom and some friends in FL last week. We spent a whole week there. It was wonderful. I've forgotten how much I enjoy warm weather. I was actually comfortable without 3 layers of clothes. We saw her new house and love it. One reason we love seeing Granny is that we always leave with hundreds of good pictures. I don't have the patience. It was great catching up with everyone. I miss everyone so much.

Micah is crawling all over the house and pulling up on everything. He is Mr. Independent at the dinner table. He prefers feeding himself. He is saying "da da da da" and Todd just thinks it's the greatest thing. He's getting good at waving "hi" and "bye."At the 8 1/2 to 9 month mark, it seemed like he was doing something new everyday. He's been the sweetest baby-always smiling and giggling and has a sweet disposition. We are so blessed.

We will stay in town for Christmas with Todd's family. We're probably doing some house projects, which is usually what we do when Todd is off work. We'll be celebrating the New Year with the Europeans! We'll be in bed by 9:00 probably.
