A Cool Treat

Popsicles were on sale for 99 cents a box. I thought they might make a nice treat (and a method of hydration) for Levi as the weather warms up...too bad they won't make it to Houston with us. Well, here's Levi's first taste and so far only taste of icy, sugary goodness.

He enjoyed it for a little bit, but was certainly ready to be done. Mom was certainly ready to clean him up. I knew he couldn't eat the popsicle on the stick, but it was enjoyed in pieces after a photo op.

Recent Funnies

Its a happy boy in the tub, no it's Super Levi!
He has foam letters to play with in the tub. Who knew that an adult size washcloth and foam letter could turn a little boy into a super hero.

We try to feed the ducks and geese around the corner about once a week. Well, the ducks are a lot friendlier than the geese. This little fella got really close to our little fella. :)

Levi had a cold two weeks ago and we had been giving him some Triaminic. We had also been giving him the syringe after giving him his medicine. He found the medicine bottle and carried them around together for a while. He knows you need both to get better.

Levi and mom have both found a new treat...grapefruit. I didn't grow up eating grapefruit, but in an effort to eat healthier I discovered it was a yummy treat, even without sugar, and Levi feels the same way.

Hard at Work

Levi spends each Friday at work with mom. He needed to send a very important fax one morning.

After touring the office to make sure business was running smoothly he needed to send some emails. :)
(He loves keyboards. I tried to get him to play with a keyboard that was not plugged into a computer, but he knew it wasn't the real deal.

Everyone I work with welcomes a Levi visit. Friday's are happy days, not just because they usher in the weekend, but becuase Levi is there to bring smiles, laughs, and happy distractions to all.

After a hard day's work at the office there is still work that needs to be done at home. Here Levi is helping dad tighten the bolts on the dining room chairs.

9 Months!

One of our snowy weekends in the Burg. Levi wasn't a fan of the snow once it started falling in his face. We only spent a few minutes outside.

Levi is an expert at opening cabinets as well as pulling things off the coffee table and the pantry shelves. We decided to keep the bathroon door shut from now on since we are getting tired of cleaning up after him.

He is a very happy boy most of the time, but especially in the tub. He loves to splash.

Levi got into the Valentine's Day spirit and sported a red shirt at church.

Your Opinion Matters

Okay, we have decided to exploit Levi and enter his photo in a type of, "I Have A Pretty Good-Lookin Kid Contest" and we are having a difficult time, A. Getting a Good Shot and B. Picking the Best Picture. They suggest a close-up headshot looking right into the camera lens. We haven't really been able to get a good one of those, but we have these 4 that we like. We'll still try and take more shots the next few days, but we wanted to get opinions. Which of the following 4 shots do you think we should submit?


Shot 1-he has food on his shirt, but he looks pretty dang cute.

1.

Shot 2. You can see his beautiful eyes, but he's not looking at the camera. This is Sloan's favorite so far.

2.


Shot 3. He has a great smile in the one and again, isn't really looking at the camera. This is Josh's favorite.

3.

Shot 4. Well, this isn't one of our favorites, but you can make out his features pretty well and we don't know everything, so this one is thrown in.

4.


Please let us know what you think we should do. If we get any more great shots over the next few days we will certainly add them and get your opinions again.
THANKS EVERYONE!

Levi's Christmas

Levi got an Anywhere Chair from Pottery Barn...as you can see he really enjoys it.

We knew he wouldn't really get into the idea of tearing open presents, but he had some fun.

Look at all of this stuff!

Gettin Ready for Christmas

Levi picked out the first ornament to go on the tree.

He and the Purdue snowman became fast friends. :)

Levi showing off our Christmas tree.

He said, "I LOVE this bright, shiny addition to our living room. I enjoy looking at while lying on my changing pad."
