Micah: 9 Months Old



Time is flying by! Micah is already 9 months old and there are some things I want to remember about this precious age.

1. Micah calls me "Nay Nay" instead of Mama. I persist in trying to convince him to do otherwise. He smiles looks at me, looks at Marcus and says, "Nay Nay."

2. Micah is crawling and pulling up. He also lets go occasionally. He is roaming the house however he can and terrorizing Marcus by trying to climb on the electronics.

3. He is particular about his food. I have tried introducing delectables like cheese and brown rice, but he won't eat them. He prefers his plain sweet potatoes and spinach to everything else.

4. Micah communicates what he wants even though he doesn't talk. This is not always done by crying. Sometimes he pulls on his diaper when he wants it changed. He crawls over to the exersaucer when he wants to play in it. He crawls over to me and pulls up on my pants when he wants to be picked up. He refuses to open his mouth when he's done eating.

5. I LOVE him more than I know how to communicate with other people. He is joy and I hope that we will have a healthy, loving relationship for the rest of my life and his.
