This is for you, Chris!

At Chris' request, I have added a few new pictures and will attempt to write a brief update for everyone who's reading. Micah is 11 months old today! He celebrated by getting up at 5:45 this morning, much to my dismay. He has a cold right now and also has his two front, top teeth coming through. Hopefully he will sleep a bit later tomorrow morning.

Micah is finally in a routine. It took us about six weeks to get there, but a typical day is as follows. Wake up at 6:45/7:00, naps at 9:30/10:00 and 1:30/2:00, bedtime at 7:00. His naps are about 1 - 1 1/2 hours long each. He's still waking up 2-3 times per night for a bottle. The doctor hasn't given us the go-ahead yet to try to get him to sleep through the night, but I may try soon anyway!

We went to the pediatrician last week for four more immunizations. I asked the nurse to weigh him and he was 18 lbs., 7. oz. He did have his clothes on, but that's still about a gain of one pound in one month. We go back in another month for more shots and I will have him weighed again at that time. His one-year check-up will be shortly after that.

Chris, I hope this update is sufficient for you. Let me know if I missed anything! :)

Good News!

I'm happy to report that after visiting with a pediatric cardiologist from Children's Hospital, Micah has been given a clean bill of health! His earlier EKG that was thought to be abnormal is actually normal. We are so happy about this, as you can imagine!

Brad's brother and his girls are visiting for the weekend, so there's not much time to post right now. Just wanted to share the good news with everyone. Happy 4th of July weekend!
