A busy week!

Happy 19 weeks of Micah's life to everyone! We love this picture. Notice how Micah's lip is going one way and his hair is going another. He's a true little boy - his hair won't stay in place no matter what we do!It snowed!! I got to show Micah his first snowstorm. He was pretty indifferent, but I thought it was fun to bundle him up and take him out in the white stuff. It's been pretty cold up here, but we also heard that our home in Florida is getting blasted with cold too. We were watching the Today show yesterday and there was a reporter give a live update from Plant City about the state of citrus and strawberries in Florida due to the cold weather. We hope it's back up to normal by the time we get back! This is Micah with his Great-Grandma Wilson. She enjoyed holding him, and we had a great time visiting with her and Great-Grandpa Wilson. Micah is their seventh great-grandchild and they have three more due before June. Here's Micah hanging with his Great-Grandpa Black. Unfortunately, Great-Grandma Black is obscured by our large child, but she had fun seeing him as well. We spent a great afternoon with them and learned that Micah is their sixth great-grandchild and they have at least one more due this year. Micah is truly blessed to have been able to spend time with generations of his family. This is Micah with his great-Aunt Bobbi, his Grandma Black's sister. She enjoyed seeing him, and for her this was a preview for welcoming her first grandchild in March. We were so grateful that she was able to take a little time off work and come for a visit. She was happy too! Kudos to our friends Dan and Martina who took the plunge last Saturday and became husband and wife. We were so happy that we were able to be there to celebrate with them. May they have a long and happy life together.
And finally, Micah has been making a lot of progress lately in the things he's able to do - roll onto his side to sleep, take his pacifier out of his mouth and put it back in, reach out and grap for objects - but he hasn't quite mastered the sitting up thing yet. Here's hoping for a successful conquering of that task in 2008!
