Grandpap, Grammy, Micah and Noah on Thanksgiving

Micah under the lights...

Here's Micah getting phototherapy treatment for jaundice. He "tanned" from around 2pm on Sunday to 6pm on Monday.

Baby Micah - 3 days old.

Baby!

Micah Edward was born on November 19th, 2009 at 1:34pm. He weighed 8 pounds, 3 ounces and was 21 inches long. The delivery was very easy and we were able to go home from the hospital the next day. So far, he eats and sleeps well. His big brother Noah is very excited about his new little brother - he wants to look at him all the time and is very eager to try to touch his face, particularly his eyes.

Grandpap's Helper

Noah loves to follow Grandpap around, especially when he is working on projects. Noah's not yet the most efficient helper, but he's learning! Here he is making sure Grandpap doesn't fall off the ladder.

Our Big Chicken

Noah was a chicken for Halloween this year. We attended a Halloween party for his baby friends in the afternoon, then went trick-or-treating in Grammy and Grandpap's neighborhood, followed by a stop at Grandma Lola and Grandpa Abby's house. A fun day! Noah caught onto trick-or-treating very quickly and was not the least bit shy about taking candy.

First "Professional" Haircut

Noah received his first "professional" haircut today at Cartoon Cuts. The end product is very handsome, but the process was grueling...you could hear the wailing clear on the other side of the mall. Three adults had to hold Noah down. He would not be coaxed by toys, treats or milk!
