Thrilling


Wearing Sissy's (Sage) shades

Every milestone that Micah reaches is so so exciting for us. When he first got eczema it was as though someone hit "Pause" and he's been stuck at 6 months old ever since-- in weight, size and progress. But here and there he starts doing something new and it gives us a reason to cheer.

2 weeks ago:
began signing "up"

1 week ago: began holding bottle all by himself

Today: waved "bye-bye" to Shane. I got a bit teary eyed, it was just so sweet! These days whenever anyone mentions Shane, Micah perks right up and starts saying "dada." He love love loves Shane and always wants to be in his arms.

Update: Today (9-2) Micah clapped for the first time. Hope he keeps up the good work.
