Daily Micah: Baby tongue

Sometimes I wish that my eyes were connected to a camera, kind of like Geordi LaForge from Star Trek: The Next Generation. That way, I could catch all the hilarious things that Micah does, but does only once, and only for a split second. The pictures we post here only very rarely capture the really special moments, just because it often takes too long (i.e., more than a second) to find our camera, turn it on, and snap a picture. Sometimes, however, we get lucky. This one, for example, was a complete accident, but a very fortunate one. As I was setting this shot up, I had no idea what he was doing. In fact, I don't think I realized he had stuck out his tongue until I reviewed the picture afterward.


Micah has been experimenting with the different sounds he can make, and recently has taken to two different strategies:

1) sticking his tongue out as he talks
2) closing his mouth altogether as he talks

Both are hilarious, and he makes great faces. We're pretty sure that's how we were able to catch this one; he was talking, and we just got lucky. Hopefully sometime soon I'll catch one of his talking-with-his-mouth-closed faces.
