Micah is 6 months old!

Today Micah got into the grocery cart for the first time!!! He was sooo happy! He also sat up by himself today and pulled himself up to stand!!! Soo many milestones in one day!!! What is a [very] proud mom to do??? (September 23, 2010)

Micah is growing so fast! As I type, he is rolling around on his playmat and onto the rug and then onto the floor. He is learning so much! I can not believe it! My days go by like seconds. Micah can crawl backwards now. But that doesn't mean though he doesn't get where he wants to go. Although Micah may not be able to crawl on his hands and knees forward, he can definitely stick his little tush in the air and move forward with his little feet! SOOO cute! Today, my little boy is sick. My poor little baby is coughing and sneezing and his little nose is running. He hates it when I wipe his nose. I hate to see him so sick! I also hate the lack of sleep I am getting! lol.. Last night he went to sleep around 11 pm and got up every two hours to eat!!! If you thought that was exhausting, the night before that, he screamed until 12am and got up EVERY hour! Needless to say, I am a little sleep deprived. But God is so good to me. As I look over at him, he's looking at me and playing with our next door neighbor, Zachary. What a joy it is to have another little boy to play with. Rico and I love Zachary!

As you can see he's holding his bottle now. We still have to help him with it, but he can do it when he wants to! Micah is turning over like a pro! He's also starting to try to pull up on things! Talk about stress! I have to watch him like a hawk! And can I also mention the fact that he touches EVERYTHING? When he's in his walker, he'll find stuff to pull down. Everything goes in his mouth!

My teething little boy. He doesn't suck on his thumb. Nope, he chews on it. He's sooo cute to me!

Micah loves to be naked.... Yeah... I guess that's something babies go through. But yeap, he loves it. He knows that when we take off his outfits, that it's bath time! This kid LOVES baths! He splashes water EVERYWHERE! I put him in the tub with me behind him yesterday and he loved it. We played with his little duckies and other toys. We may have a little Michael Phelps on our hands!!!

Micah was trying to reach for my camera phone.... This kids loves phones.. Don't leave yours laying around or it will be in his mouth!! And I don't know why but he screams all the time for the "fun of it"! Do all babies do this??? He thinks it's funny! You look at him and as soon as he sees that he has your attention, he starts cheesing! What in the world??? lol. It would be much more funny if he didn't have the lungs that he did... Nah, who am I kidding, it's sweet. Rico and I are so in love with this boy. We have so many high hopes for him!

Today Micah had his 6 month check up. He weighs 14 lbs 5 oz and is in the tenth percentile. He is 27 inches long and is in the 75% for height! We are so proud of our little man! He also got his first sippy cup today.... He's not quite used to that yet! lol He got his shots today and only cried for a minute, then he was cheerful and started playing again. We then had dinner at Sonnys Barbecue where Micah flirted with all the waitresses! One waitress even asked if we needed someone to watch him because he seemed like such a good baby! We are sooo lucky! =)
