A day in Micah's life

Here is a typical day from Micah's perspective as a two-week old infant:

My day usually starts out with breakfast... Dad offered me this breakfast burrito, but Mom turned down that idea.

While my parents eat, I lay on a quilt and exercise my legs and arms.

When Mom needs two hands, she puts me in my bouncer.  I like being in my bouncer a lot and I like falling asleep here, unlike my cradle. 

 After naps, I like to eat and then fall asleep again...

Sometimes, I get bundled up and taken on a walk.

If I'm lucky, I get to have a friend over to visit.

 When Dad gets home from work, we spend some time together.  Laying on Dad is my favorite position, and I like to fall asleep here too.

 Other times, Dad and I have intellectual discussions.

 At night, my parents swaddle me to keep me warm and content.  Dad calls this particular wrap a mermaid swaddle.  Sometimes I like this...

And sometimes I don't...

 And here is where I sleep at night, in a wooden cradle handmade by Opa.
Goodnight!
