Baptism

Micah was baptized today! It was a beautiful day for the baptism! Micah did very well during the service and just fussed a little when the baptismal water was put over his head, though in his defense, it was very cold! We then had a brunch for our families in our new garage. Thank goodness for the garage - with just our two families, even with a few missing, we still had 23 people there, including 3 babies! I've learned how to add pictures! The first picture is of Micah with his cake, which he can't enjoy yet (kind of cruel!), the second is of our little family, of course, and the third is of Micah tuckered out after the party! I'm starting to get the hang of this, so hopefully you won't be too bombarded with pictures of Micah!

New edition!!

Hi, everyone! I'm very new to all of this, but several of my friends have websites, so I guess I should do one too to stay in the loop! Hopefully, I can keep up on it, because it'll be a great way to keep up with all of you, especially those of you who we don't get to see regularly. My friend, Natalie, came up with the address "The Nicolas News." I know that all of you who know her know that I would of course consult her when trying to come up with a cute, creative name! It honestly took her about 5 seconds to think of it! Anyway, it's very appropriate, because now we have a lot of news to share with our new edition, Micah! He's changing everyday and is the joy of our lives! It was a surprise to have him come early, but we're so thankful for him and that everything turned out alright! So many people have told us what a beautiful baby he is and, though we may be biased, we have to agree! He's quite a mover and is extremely strong even though he's so small! He's growing fast, which makes us very happy, because Daddy (Chris) is hoping for a football player in the future! Anyway, I'm going to try to add pictures now, so we hope you'll enjoy catching up on our news periodically!
