Well, I finally figured out what is wrong with my back. Micah weighs 19 lbs! That's what's wrong with my back! We went to the doctor yesterday for well-kid check-ups and he has gained nearly 3 pounds this month! Katie is no longer measured in "length" - she is officially 3 foot 4! They both got shots - Katie had to be laid on to hold her still, but recovered quickly, mostly so that she could watch Micah get his! (She enjoyed that!) He was asleep when they started and only roused enough to say "yikes" then went right back to sleep! But it was all okay! The doctor was highly entertained by Katie who has now decided that when she grows up she wants to be a princess (go figure) instead of a horse. We feel like that is progress!

Hope you are having a good day!

This is for Katie's debut in Rich and Audrey's wedding! She has been practicing her supporting role as flower girl!

Micah seems to be taking quite seriously the job of keeping the hat on his huge head!

That's about all that's new with us!

So, the next exciting thing to happen at our house is that Micah was diagnosed with RSV, a type of respiratory virus that can be very serious in infants. After a couple trips to the doctor and a chest x-ray at the urgent care clinic, he is confined to the fate of breathing treatments several times a day for a couple weeks! He looks so pitiful, but he has been quite a little man about it all. He often falls asleep during the treatments. When he stays awake, he tries to lick the mask! Not sure what deficit in his diet makes that seem like an attractive option!

Well, it's Micah day today! He had his first "meal" of oatmeal and sat up for quite a while, so we are celebrating. (He didn't actually drink diet coke, just in case you are about to report us as diliquent parents!) Just thought we'd share a glimpse of the day! Hope yours was exciting too!
