happy baptism birthday, baby boy

Two years ago today, we rejoiced as our baby boy was added to the kingdom of God.  Take a peek with me as we relive his most important moment this side of heaven...

Micah's godparents, Chad and Michelle, are on the left with their daughters Mackenzie and Alyssa.  His other set of godparents are Joel, on the right, and Mandy, who is taking the picture.

A child of God forever

In all the hullabaloo of the baptism and Papa King being one of the photographers and Grandma getting everything ready for the reception, Dan and I neglected to get a baptism picture of Micah with them.  Having traveled all the way from CA for this special event, they were very much present and a crucial part of his big day.  We want them to be represented somehow and Micah to know that they were there for him that day!

fantastic fall fun with friends who feel like family

Last weekend, Jessica invited all of the daycare kiddos and their families over to her house for a fall get-together, complete with pumpkin painting, a bonfire, amazing foods, and lots of laughs.  Micah and I had a fantastic time, as I'm sure all the other families did.  Here are the memories we shared:

 Hunter and Graden carving pumpkins

Paige: Ummm......I'm kinda stuck.  Micah: Hey, check out this thing in the grass!  

 Hey, everybody, look.  Paige is stuck.  Just so you know. 

 Hey Paige, are you still stuck?  Do you need help?

 Yep.  Look.  She's still stuck.  She might need help.

What Paige's thinking: Micah's no help.  What Micah's thinking: I helped Paige!

 Off to go play golf.  'Scuse us!

 Bye, everybody!

This is the life, being driven around by a beautiful girl.

 What?  I'm eating.

 Suh-weet!  Check out how far this stretches!

 The famous Henry looking cute as always

Paige and Micah hiding in the bushes in the corner.....someone should keep an eye on those two!

Jessica and Henry

Who said I can't put my whole hand in my mouth?

Is there a problem?

 The pumpkin carving masters are done and ready to light it up

 A rare treat - a smile actually captured on camera!

 Maybe...if Henry isn't looking....that cookie could be MINE!

 Best buds

 Rye-yee has the greatest smile!

 This, folks, is how you spell T-R-O-U-B-L-E.  (Oh SO cute together though!)

 More best buds

 One smile out of two ain't bad....

Daddy's boy

Leave it there - I might want to eat that part later.

picture frenzy

Here are the pictures from my actual birthday in September!  I had a blast celebrating with my daycare family! 

Awww, check out my very own birthday message!

 My Elmo balloon bouquet that my godmommy "Shell" (Michelle) surprised me with!  She dropped it off for Mommy and Daddy since they had to work.

 Cool, a blue thing!  Never mind the 5 gigantic Elmo balloons above my head.....

 Sharing my balloons with my bff Henry

 A smile for a great day

 Chowing down on some cupcakes Mommy made for us.  Notice how smart Jessica was to feed us outside!!!!

 CHEESE!

 Don't mind me, I'm just gonna have a bite.

 Mommy thinks I have a bit of a crush on "P", as I call her - her real name is Paige!  Don't I have FABULOUS taste????

 NUM, NUM, NUM.  Mommy says I have a big mouth!

 Wait, I found a bit more I can shove in there....

 Mommy might frame this one, she loves it so much!

 What?  Do I have something on my face?

 Well, see, I was saving that for later....

Maybe I missed a few crumbs....
