Cute picture:
Micah won't take a pacifier, won't suck his thumb, but he likes to soothe himself by sucking. So what does he use, you ask? Anything that happens to be in his crib at the time. Mr. Monkey fell victim this particular naptime.

Great Movie: Australia with Hugh Jackman and Nicole Kidman. Long and very intriguing, best movie I've seen in a while.

Deal of the Week: If you trade in your old printer at Staples, they give you a $50 rebate coupon. HP has a black and white laser printer on sale for $99.98. We ordered by phone and used the $25 off coupon Dad gave us. You do the math :).

New Baby Food of the Week: Yogurt. Last week was avocado and he really enjoyed it. I think (dare I say) he's going through another growth spurt, so I am upping the number of ounces he eats for lunch to three instead of two. We'll see how that goes. He has been eating two ounces for breakfast, lunch, and dinner and even for a mid-afternoon snack if he needs to. And that's all on top of nursing every three hours!

I'll be posting Micah's six-month update in the next day or two. Yep, he's six months as of yesterday!

    I love that first picture. I have seen do the same with the stuffed lamb! You would think he would discover his thumb somewhere along the line, the little cutie! Mom F

    What an adorable picture! Love it!

    I thought Australia looked like a good one.

    Ooh, nice deal for sure :)

    We've kept Matthew away from dairy products for now, since I'm lactose intolerant and all. I don't know if it will affect his being lactose intolerant later, but we'll see. Once he hits a year old, we'll see how he does with milk. If he's cool with it, then I'll feel comfortable with yogurt and cheeses and stuff.

    I LOVE that picture of Micah sleeping! Too adoreable! Soooooo incredibly cute! I watched Australia yesterday, too! It's a GREAT movie, isn't it? I love learning about history in an interesting way.

    Awww at Micah. Ari has the same George, and she loves him. I think part of the reason is because she has a Curious George book, and it's "cool" to her that she has a real George too. :)

    I was really interested in seeing Australia, so now I will have to!

    Oh OK, now I'm looking at the pic again, and it's not the same Curious George that Ari has. Anyway.... :)
