<< Back to birth (Sept 2006)

"Uncle John" is holding Micah, with Curt & Sue Dobbs all visiting our Xiamen home. Uncle John is Rick Laymon's uncle, age 89, and was visiting our factory to share some of his manufacturing expertise with us.

Getting ready for a stroller ride!

Ready to go!

Mama's giving me a bath! Micah enjoys his warm baths.

Uncle Rob and Aunt Emily came over. They live in the building just nextdoor!

This was an early morning with our early riser. Even sleepyhead Dad got up!

Sometimes are crying times.

Sometimes are happy times!

Rongqing jie and Chen Guangxin came to visit us in October.

Yunyin Ayi looking at Daddy's baby pics with little Micah. (When Daddy was a boy.)

Trapped! In wrestling, Micah usually wins.

Nainai Nancy likes to teach Micah to lie on his stomach and strengthen his neck. Amy & Luke took this picture when they visited Micah.

Micah's first airplane trip was up to Beijing for Thanksgiving! He was so glad to see Nainai Nancy again!

It was also Jenny's first time to visit "Ben's" house. We had a great time.

Micah's having a deep conversation with Robbie Yeye.

Do you see a family resemblance?

Big smile!

We took the scooter to church on Sunday.

Here's Micah making friends with Aunt Kathy Laymon.

Nancy & Micah got into a fight, but we broke it up. They were upset about who's brow was more cross.

A family shot.

Thinking...

Smiling...

Tired...

And yawning.

Quiet time with Nainai.

Micah was glad to meet Ben Hopwood up in Beijing.

Micah was spoiled by all his Gugus up in Beijing. When he came back to Xiamen, he wanted to be held all the time! This is Avery Gugu loving on him.

Baby fingers.

Micah loves to "fly the airplane" with Daddy every night!

Micah's Waipo--Jenny's mother--came to help take care of Jenny & Micah for a month. Here is a typical evening in the Briggs' house, entertaining Micah on the sofa.

Jenny's friend Christy brought her daughter Natalie & four other children over one Saturday.

Christy's kids and friend Anna painted watercolors while the ladies chatted.

Micah typically sleeps from 9:30pm to 7:30am. He's in a great mood when he gets up in the morning! Here is his changing his diaper next to his playmat.

Morning smiles!

Here's little RMB visiting Dad's office! He was glad to meet Mr. Damon Wu.

Passing time with Mama one evening...

Dad's looking forward to playing soccer and going on camping trips.

Christmas was on the way, and we had a little tree and nativity set. Forrest Lin's 5-yr-old daughter, Lin Jing, made the angel for our tree.

Stretching his neck to have a look...

Studying the nativity scene.

Talking with sweet Mommy.

We don't use a heater much, so we keep bundled in our apartment.

A big boy!

Exploring the living room...

Here he is with a winter hat!
