Back in action...

Well hello....

We have been out of commission for a while nursing illness and trying to get better. We are all almost back to 100% and are just waiting for Micah to recover completely. We had a play date with some friends that came over sick and the next thing we knew me, mom and Micah were all feeling yucky. Micah's almost looked like it was going to evolve into Pneumonia but that tuff little turd managed to keep it at bay- and is just finishing the last of his chest infection.

On a lighter note I have been keeping busy enjoying the nice weather and getting out lots. Mom has almost mastered the "two kids in public" and takes us out at least once a day. I am finished my Monday classes at the library, but now I have play time on Wednesday's with the church, and dad takes me out one day a week for an activity.

This is me and Micah at the beach a couple of weeks ago...

Naked cowboy... What is so funny about that??

The triplets... Micah has to learn the "cheese" face...

He almost has it...

Me and dad at the "Taste of Edmonton" in the city hall pool...

Well that is all for now. I ask that you keep us in your prayers and specifically stuff like health, employment, and immigration. We will try to get back on the blog more regularly since Micah is changing so much and so fast. He is already well over 15 pounds and he rolls over and tries to talk. For some reason though he doesn't like it when I squeeze his cheeks together. (Personally I think it is hilarious!)

Take care...

Me and my brother...

Hey folks, we are back. I have figured out that Micah is not going anywhere so I will be including him regularly in my posts. We are having a good time and he has strated to make noises that sound like he is trying to talk. He rolls over from his tummy which mom and dad seem to think is a big deal... (I can do that...) He is over fifteen pounds and has really yucky skin that they call exzema... (Pray for that cause it looks really itchy and mom has to put thick cream on him that gets everywhere...) This shirt was given to Micah from the girls mom works with at the jail. How fitting! He spent nine months on the inside of mom and the jail...
This was me at Ft. Edmonton Park. I got to ride on areal choo choo train which thrilled me to no end. I had the same hat as the engineer and even got to ride on a horse-drawn carriage.
Here is me and Micah in my bed. I was getting ready for a nap and mom was reading us a story. I couldn't understand why mom didn't leave Micah to have a nap with me...Doesn't this face look trustworthy?
It took a long time but Micah is finally smiling. Mom says it melts her heart evertime he does...

Well, that is it for now. I am getting a littel impatient on mom's lap, ( not to mention heavy), so we will give you more updates when mom has more time...

Love ya!
