Airplanes & Airports

Due to the very unfortunate passing of a dear friend, Craig Cooper, (Check out Britt's blog: www.mbrittm.blogspot.com) we took an unexpected trip to the States. We had a layover in Tokyo and Britt and Micah found a comfy place on the floor in the sun for a little snooze.

Micah and Britt played video games on our international flight from Houston to Tokyo.


Micah was behaving so well we decided he deserved a cookie.

Back in the Tokyo airport, Micah passed the time with another nap.

Micah entertained many people waiting for our flight from Tokyo back to Seoul. He sauntered around like a superstar, smiling at anyone who would pay attention to him.

Food Exploration

We thought maybe Micah might like to enter the world of eating. So we tried some rice cereal for a few days in early February. He certainly enjoyed the experience.

He loved the cereal in his mouth, but never quite got the hang of swallowing it. In spite of how much fun we were having, we decided to wait and try again after he turns 6 months old.

I think he always succeeded at getting more cereal on his bib than in his tummy.

Micah is fascinated with adult-sized cups, straws and water bottles. Britt and I have fun trying to teach him how to drink out of a cup.
