Michaela

Michaela Joy joined our family on October 1, 2009.  Michele had been hoping for a September baby, but a very long labor foiled those plans.  In the few short months since her birth, she has lived up to her middle name.

Since becoming mobile, Michaela is into everything she can get her hands on, but her favorite things to play with are Christopher, Erin, Sean, and Kelsie.  She lights up when she sees any of them enter the room.

Unlike the other kids at this age, Michaela has a bit of separate anxiety when it comes to being away from Michele.  It’s fine for someone to hold her, but she needs to be able to see Mommy…of course, Mommy isn’t complaining.
