Micah turned the big 4-0 yesterday! We didn't get a chance to take the picture, so we fudged a little and did it today when we got home from Parts I & II of vacation. He sort of looks like he's levitating in this picture, doesn't he? Just trying to touch his feet - something he loves to do!
We spent the first part of the past week in Chicago, visiting Uncle Matt and Aunt Kristin - Micah's aunt and uncle. We hung out at a local park for part of our first day there. This was Micah's first time in a swing. At first he wasn't too sure, but by the end, he was like a little Superman.
I like to call this picture, "If You Give a Kid a Box..." We made sure to bring a few toys with us when we traveled, but Micah spent the better part of an hour on one day and about as much another day just sitting in this box. He talked to it and chewed it a little and just generally really enjoyed it. We're finding out what every rookie parent eventually finds out - no presents, just boxes!
Aunt Kristin fed Micah his bedtime bottle one night while the rest of us played a game.
We also went to a baseball game at Wrigley Field and watched the Cubs take on the Dodgers. It's also where we were reminded that we now officially have the blood of southerners. For as nice as the day before was (see park picture above!), this day was sunny - and a balmy 35 degrees! We were freezing! You can't tell by looking at this picture, but everyone in the stands was all bundled up in their fleece blankets and watching the game. We're glad to say we've been to Wrigley Field, but we were also glad to say we left! :)
Uncle Matt and Aunt Kristin hold a squirmy Micah. Thanks for letting us stay with you!
And then my boys fell asleep on the way to Boston. Stay tuned for those pictures...
