11 DAYS!!!!!!!

One year ago we were just settling into our new home in Lichtenau, Germany, I was getting ready for the boys to start school, and getting excited that I was a month away from having a new little baby. 11 days later life changed. Micah was born and our world turned upside down. Now a year has past and I am getting ready for the boys to start school, and I am getting very excited that in 11 days Micah will be 1!!!!!! I still can't believe that a year has gone by.

Update, 16 July....

Let's see...since the last time I posted anything Micah has been doing quite a few things. He is rolling, crawling, pulling himself up to stand, starting to take a bottle sometimes, and eating baby food like a champ!!!!! He was last weighed at about 15 pounds!!!!! He has been doing physical therapy and working very hard at it. He is such a good baby. Jacob, Noah and Emily just adore him. They are so happy he is crawling now and that he can play with them more. I can't wait to see what is coming next!!!!! Thank you all for ALL of your prayers and support!!!! This has been a long and eventful year and I am so excited to think that in just a couple weeks Micah will be 1!!!!!!

HE'S GAINING WEIGHT!!!!!!!!

MICAH IS 14 LBS 4 OZ!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! THE NURSE WAS JUST HERE AND MICAH HAS GAINED 1 LB 6 OZ!!!!!!!!!!!!! SHE WAS HERE A WEEK AGO AND HE HAS GAINED MORE THAN A POUND IN 1 WEEK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I CAN'T BELIEVE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! IF HE KEEPS GAINING LIKE THIS HE'LL BE BACK ON THE GROWTH CHART BY THE TIME HE'S ONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Micah is trying to crawl!!! He is getting up on his hands and knees and and then slides down. He looks like an inch worm!!! Micah had his Plastic's appointment in Boston today and the doctor was thrilled with how well Micah has healed!!!! He doesn't want to see Micah again until he's 18 months old!!! I'm so glad we are FINALLY in the home stretch!!!! He still needs to have work done on his pace maker, but that will be it until he's about 15 when he needs a valve replacement.
