On the Move

We bought a house on Wednesday and are moving to the boonies! Mom likes to call it Tom Sawyer land, basically moving to the woods to give Micah a wilderness playground. It's in Medina/Maple Plain. The new house will be great other than the commute to work. Good thing that is only 3 days a week!

Speaking of moving, Micah has figured out how to crawl this week. He's hasn't mastered it by any means, but he is definitely on the move. He has also figured out how to stand with assistance, whether a piece of furniture or one of us, but he will be walking way to soon. I am really hoping that I can keep him at bay for a couple weeks so that we don't have to baby proof this house for two weeks since we are moving soon. Fingers crossed!

Cruising' Kiddo

Micah is days away from crawling..SCARY. Just today he figured out to go from all fours to sitting up and has already mastered it after a few attempts. He is trying to move forward but can't quite get the coordination to do so. He moves backwards like a champ already and now goes from back to sitting up to back to attempting to go forward...just a matter of time!

He has also decided that at 6 months he loves the pacifier. WE tried for months to get him to take it at night to help with sleeping, soothing, etc to no avail. Now, within the last two weeks he has decided that he loves his nook, such a weirdo. At least now we have a way to sooth him when he is freaking out, especially in the middle of the night. Guess we will have to ween him off eventually, but for now we are happy to allow it.

Micah has now tried many different food options with no problems. So far no allergies! Time to start green options...stinky!
