Hmmm...where did I put my wallet?

Micah's first time swimming (other than in the amniotic fluid)

I love my teething biscuits!

I love dates with Mommy at the coffee shop, too!

We all enjoyed our trip to Chicago...Micah's first trip to the big city!

First time sitting up all by myself! (Daddy says I look like a gorilla.)

Go Cubs, go!

Micah likes to help Mommy in the kitchen.

Lovin' the bath!

Micah loves his Daddy.

Did I used to cry a lot? I don't even remember!

Finally getting outside after a long Midwest winter!

Thanksgiving was also Micah's first trip to Minnesota, and he loved seeing his Grandma Lois and Grandpa Mark.

Micah also got to meet his Great-Grandpa Schmidt, and here we captured four generations of Schmidts.

The next weekend, Micah was dedicated to the Lord at our church. Here he is in his Sunday best.

Even during his busy day of dedication, Micah took a few minutes out of his schedule for photos with Mommy and Daddy.

We have been enjoying lots of smiles from our boy!

Micah loves time with his Nana.

He also enjoys spending time on his tummy, but only for a few minutes.

"I just love my baths, but don't let go, Daddy!"

Micah and Daddy enjoyed a little extra sleep on Christmas morning.

"I need a break after helping pass out so many gifts!"

"Now I really get to relax with Mommy and Daddy. I had a great first Christmas!"

And finally...here is Micah in his brand new chair...the Bumbo.

The beginning of a smile that we captured on camera.

Micah at the pumpkin farm (funny, because Mommy calls Micah "Pumpkin").

Micah in his giraffe costume for Halloween.

Here's Micah all prepared for a chilly Midwest winter.

Micah loves working out in his activity gym!
