Micah's Television Debut!

"Good Morning, Alabama!"

Last week, Micah was chosen to model his Halloween costume on The Good Morning Alabama Show on Fox 6! I must say, I was a bit hesitant to accept the offer, especially not knowing how Micah would react to all of the cameras and people. My top two fears were that: 1. Micah would begin to cry and run off of the set, or 2. Micah would unzip his costume and model his Thomas the Train underwear instead!

Luckily, there is hardly anything that Micah won't do for some fruit snacks, so let's just say he had about a week's worth of fruit snacks in a span of about an hour! If you had a chance to see the clip, I'm sure you noticed that he was chewing fruit snacks on air! Once he saw himself on the screen, his eyes remained glued on himself, so he kind of looked like a deer in the headlights, but it got the job done!

Below is a picture of Daddy & Micah posing in front of the television station...

Dewayne has such a knack for taking photos...notice that he got a picture of a criminal in the background of my picture with Micah just before we went on the air...

Pumpkin Patch Express!

Pumpkin Patch Express!

Last weekend, Micah enjoyed his first "real" train ride aboard the Pumpkin Patch Express! Midway through the trip, we made a pit stop in the woods where Micah met The Great Pumpkin, rode on a hayride, picked out his very own pumpkin to take home, & got his first (temporary) tattoo!

In the photo above, we are heading towards the pumpkin patch on the train. And, below, Micah is showing off his prized pumpkin and coloring masterpiece. As you can see, it was hard for me to get him to look at the camera (his eyes were fixed on The Great Pumpkin.)

Micah examines his first pumpkin tattoo! He didn't like it at first and tried to wipe it off. But then it grew on him and he refused to let me wash it off. By the next morning, it looked less like a pumpkin and more like some sort of nasty growth.

Micah pointing to The Great Pumpkin...but now, he has his eyes set on the sandbox in the distance. Too bad I didn't get a picture of Micah playing in the sandbox, as this was his first time to play with sand. He usually avoids the sand at all costs, but he saw a couple of his friends playing in the sandbox so I suppose he decided to give it a try--EXCEPT, he never stepped foot in the sandbox! He scooped out the sand from outside of the sandbox...at least it's a start! : )
