A Day in the Life of Micah

Trying to reach for my toys.

Bath Time

Story time

I am seven weeks old today and although I am not on a set schedule (I like to keep mommy and daddy on their toes to make sure they know who is boss) I thought I would share about a day in my life….

When I wake up in the morning, I help mommy open all the curtains and blinds to let the sun shine in to the house. Mommy gives me breakfast and we talk about our night and plans for the day. Afterwards mommy will get me dressed for the day and I will watch mommy quickly eat breakfast and get ready. Then is walk time. I love going for walk. I use to fall asleep right a way, but now that I am bigger I love to stay awake for a little while and listen to the sounds around me… birds chirping, dogs barking, trees rustling and the river flowing. Mommy tries to explain everything to me. I do not always understand, but I like the sound of her voice. Sometimes we stop at the market to pick up fresh fruit and milk. When we get home it is lunchtime. Yummy!

After lunch, we will have play time… we will read stories (Mommy's book club friends give me a whole bag of fun books that mommy likes to read to me), listen and dance to music (so far I like everything except daddy's 80s metal), have belly time (I even sometimes roll over), or have a mommy's sing-a-along. Some times if I am lucky we will get together with mommy's friends or I will come along as mommy runs errands. I also like to listen in on mommy's telephone conversations, especially when she is talking to Grandma K or Auntie Daina. Then is nap time and eating time again. On good days when I wake up daddy will be home. I love spending time with daddy… he is a funny guy and he makes me smile and giggle.

Some days after supper mommy and daddy will give me a bath. I am starting to like bath time. After such a busy day I am tired and after I eat (again), daddy will put me to bed. If I am not too sleepy we will read "Good Night Moon" and daddy will remind me about everyone who loves me as we rock in my rocking chair. Life is good!
