how micah fit in my belly

we tried positioning little micah on my belly to show how 8lbs13oz of baby could fit in there.

(before - one of the last pictures i took of my preggo belly...blurry cause its camera phone)

(after - head down, feet in my ribs, and knees poking out of my sides)

yes, i just so happen to be randomly wearing the same t-shirt, that was not planned but it ended up working out nicely, dontcha think?

first trip to the park

we took our first trip to the park today with aunt amanda and cousin avery. avery played on the swings while micah napped in his stroller. he was dying to get out there and show the kids what's up, but he didn't want outshine any of the other little boys just yet :)

it's a jungle out there

micah loves his jungle play mat from his uncle jonny. after an afternoon of excitement and overwhelming jungle adventures, he konked out hard core.


thanks uncle jonny!!!

mimi's visit

mimi came to stay with us for 10 days after micah's birth to help around the house and help keep my sanity. we went to church on sunday, watched the superbowl, and took lots of naps.


we even got a smile out of him!

introducing our little guy

after exactly 40 weeks and one day of waiting, micah made his entrance into this world on friday, january 23rd at 5:08pm. we had an exceptional birthing experience, with only 8 hours of labor & 20 minutes of pushing, micah emerged plump and happy at 8lbs 13oz and 19 1/2 inches long. and he's even got a full head of black hair, a little bit like a mullet :)
