Busy, busy...

We've had a busy couple of days... Grannie Jannie came by on Friday to help bake cookies for an event at church, (actually she did ALL of the baking, while I took care of Micah... thanks, Mom!) and before she left we gave Micah a bath. He's really starting to enjoy bath time! He never really fussed when we bathed him, except for the first time... he wasn't too sure what was going on, and our house can be kind of cold at times. I wouldn't want to be wet and naked in the cold either! :) But I think we've got it figured out now... I crank the heat before we start his bath, use warm water (duh!), and he does pretty well.

He loves to look at things on the ceiling... a fan, a light, or, in this case, our pot rack in the kitchen

Happy in the tub :)

He's always happy when it's over and he gets wrapped in a towel and snuggled :)

On Sunday, we went over to my parents' house in the afternoon and were amused by my goofy brother...

And had our friends Brian and Becky over for dinner...

Becky is going to make a great mom! She can already hold a squirmy baby and eat ice cream at the same time! She's my hero!! :)

On Monday, I had a dentist appointment, so Grannie Jannie came with to entertain Micah...

And the evening hours were filled with staring contests with daddy...

Today, we went over to my friend Shana's house to meet her little guy, Michael... it was AMAZING to see the difference in size between Micah and Michael. Micah is almost 8 weeks old, Michael is just 2 weeks old.

And finally, I have to post a few pics of Micah doing what he does best... look adorable. :)

A few more pictures...

So photogenic! :)

Happy little guy! :)

Goofy Uncle Jim being somewhat normal... probably because he knows he's not in the shot ;)

Micah's first Valentine's Day, complete with a bib from Grandma and Grandpa K. to commemorate the day

Camera Happy...

As the title of this post suggests, I have been quite camera happy lately. I think most new moms go through this... feeling like I have the camera out and ready more often than not, and wishing I had it out and ready even more often than that. Like right now... I'm sitting here working on our blog and Micah is sitting in his swing next to me, grinning from ear to ear. (He's probably working on a poop, but he's smiling) :) iPhoto is ridiculously full on our computer right now, and more than half of the pictures are of our almost 7 week old baby! So rather than keep all those pictures to ourselves, I thought I'd post them here for you to enjoy too.

We had a few days at home due to a major snowstorm

I love this picture with Micah holding on to Aaron's finger

Tiny hands...

... compared to Aaron's hand, which looks absolutely huge in this picture! :)

Nap time with Daddy

Dreaming some good dreams :)

It's a bird... it's a plane... it's SUPER BABY! (complete with the bib on backwards to look like a cape... not on purpose, it just gets that way eventually) :)

Tummy time

Micah's first "play date" with Val and Logan.. which was somewhat similar to that Tostitos commercial with the moms chatting while their babies sleep in car seats :)

I will never understand how that position is comfortable, but Micah seemed to like it

Micah meets more friends... Heather and her daughter Meghan

Julie

Naresh and Tulasi, whose baby is due in May

My boys in the hood ;)

Micah and Cheena get some loving

Happy guy! :)

Snuggled up with a gift from Grannie Jannie

Quite amused by the mobile above his crib

A few more of the many faces of Micah

At our wedding, our photographer kept saying, "It's okay if I take a ton of pictures... they're all digital. I only have to use the good ones." (or something like that) At the time, that was kind of annoying to keep hearing over and over, but it's true... if all I had was a film camera and had to pay to print every single picture, I don't think I'd take as many. But with a digital camera, and being able to see them right away and delete the bad ones, it's a lot easier to get camera happy. :)
