This morning we headed out to the Morton Arboretum - a 5 mile run for mom and dad, and then playing at the Children's Garden for Micah. What a great morning and a great time we had! Micah has begun the transition from 2 naps to 1, and it will be so nice once he's completely there because it makes the morning wide open. This past week in particular has been one in which I really think he's showing signs of readiness, as he refused to go down for his morning nap on 2 of those days. And usually if we are able to get him out and about he does pretty good of not getting too cranky. Of course this is happening as I am about to start school back up, therefore I can't even tell Micah's new daycare provider about his schedule, but such is life.
"Hi Momma. I'm having so much fun here!"
"I need to get going though...there's just so much to see."
"Well...sure, I can stand and wait for a snack. Anything for food!"
"You, on the other hand Momma...that's old hat! I need to explore."
"Now, what have we here?"
"Oh, now these are pretty cool."
"Seriously, these are so fun! And I love being able to play with them since Daddy's picked me up!"
"Thanks for a great day guys! I just love being a kid."
(And might I add, like father like son?!?! :) )
So on that note, if you think of us, say a little prayer as it's about to get that much more busy. With me starting school, Micah going to a new person (who just had a baby in June as well as a 2 year old little boy) and the fact that Christian's schedule tends to amp up a notch or two this time of year, it's going to be a hectic fall. We are blessed, however, beyond measure and grateful for all that God has given us. As we move to enter a busier season of life, we know God remains on the throne and in control.
