The shades

We bought these sunglasses for Micah because he squints in the sun - like his mommy. Daddy argues we should omit shades to toughen him up. But if we did that, we wouldn't have pics like these.

Micah's birthday party in NJ

We'll be in California for Micah's first birthday so we wanted to celebrate his 1st here with our good friends in New Jersey before we headed west. We had a wonderful backyard cookout - Josh manned the grill and served up hot dogs and veggie dogs for everyone.

Burton's Send-off Party

We sent off our friends with a BBQ and cheers just hours before they rode off into the sunrise to bring home their baby from Ethiopia.

Our friend Angela

Here we are hanging out with our friend Angela. Angela and her lovely family are responsible for exposing us to lovely Greek culture (for which Mandy's Greek relatives are thankful). Micah and Angela are always eager to see each other.

Micah gets a hold of the spoon

These videos are really for the grandparents and people with extra special patience to sit through them. Please feel free to, but it's totally understandable if it tests your patience. It's exciting for us to see his growth and development, but you might be wondering why there are so many clips in here with him holding a spoon.

"Oooo...Look honey, he's holding a spoon!"
