month: eight

I can't believe I have had the privilege of being this sweet boy's mama for eight months already! EIGHT MONTHS. It really is hard to believe. And every month just keeps getting better and better. (I have a feeling this will stop maybe around the teenage years?? haha, kidding... kinda)

At 8 months, Micah is in love with... - his daddy's laugh - playing peek-a-boo - being tickled and kissed all over - my iPhone - our dog, Heidi (still) - other babies and little kids - saltine crackers - my earrings, jewelry, sunglasses, etc. - really, anything fun or interesting looking. He is such a happy boy!

Micah is crawling... everywhere. He is a little mover and I can't take my eyes off him for long.

I am pretty proud of this picture. It's hard to get him to sit still for long, let alone smile for me! This squinty nose grin is one of my favorites. :)

There he goes... trying to pull himself up on the chair! Like I said... can't. take. my. eyes. off. him.

He is learning so much lately. I can see it in his eyes when I sing the "ABC's..." or tell him a story. He wants to understand. He's also learning how to play with his toys, instead of just chewing on them. :)

Micah has no fear. It's a very scary thing to know that he is capable of getting himself into trouble, but has no understanding of danger. I am saying, "No, no" a LOT these days. He's already shaken open a bottle of teething tablets, stuffed lint in his mouth and tried to climb out of his high chair. And they say this is only the beginning.

Micah has four teeth (working on two more at the moment!) light brown hair that is coming in all over and hazel eyes that are settling in on a green/brown color

This face just melts my heart. He is an absolute blessing to our lives! I could not have asked God to give us a more precious baby boy.

Happy 8 months Micah Jordan!
