Happy 4th Birthday Micah! – Photo and Video Memories

November 17, 2016

Today Micah turns four and I can’t even believe it!
He brings so much joy into our family. We are blessed by him and his love for life.
Micah keeps us on our toes and keeps us laughing!
Since he was a baby we always joked that he is like Santa… jolly!

Micah is an expert at robot moves.
He is such a fun kid. and so sweet. I love seeing his personality come out more each year
and how much he wants to learn and know everything.
He gives awesome hugs and has some pretty sweet dance moves too.

Micah arrived and rocked our world. We didn’t find out what we were having,
but with two girls everyone had their fingers crossed we would get a boy.
Ben cried when he first laid eyes on him and told me, “it’s a boy!”

I remember when we first told the girls they had a baby brother or sister coming…
We were SO EXCITED!

 Micah was a busy bee even when in my belly.
It still blows my mind seeing how he kicked and the girls could experience that.
You were loved from the very very beginning Micah. We couldn’t wait to meet you!

Micah’s been mothered and loved on from the start haha.
My favorite quote from my birth story post is about the girls meeting him….
” Sophie was IN LOVE. She just wanted to hold him constantly.
Sienna loved him too..but in a more aggressively
lovey ‘I want to poke your eyes out’ sort of way.”
Micah you have two sisters that will forever be mothering you. and loving you. :)

In this video you can see that moment the girls first met their little brother…
and we fell totally in love!
 

From the start everyone said Micah is Ben’s mini..and it’s still the same!
They are silly and trouble together. These two boys keep us laughing.
His laugh makes my heart so happy.
Enjoy the baby giggles in the video below! :)

 He gets energy from being around people. He loves people!
Micah lives extreme…. super social and then super chill.. loving to
snuggle on the sofa and always asking for us to read him a book.
He loves youtube/eggs surprise shows, playing with his sisters, helping mommy bake
and all the boy stuff. ninja turtles, fire trucks, super heroes. the classics. ;)
I remember when we went to visit our old College…
and he just walked off waving and ready to mix and mingle.

We are celebrating his birthday in Charlotte, over Thanksgiving break,
with my family and all of the cousins!
It’s a construction theme party because he loves tools and building things!

    Aw.Happy birthday, Micah! It’s crazy to realize I’ve been following along since before his first birthday! Possibly before he was even born. Your kids are so adorable!
