Just an update on the “chunk”, as we affectionately call him. 🙂 He is getting so big and his hair is getting so long! Next week he will be 11 months – so hard to believe! Levi loves the camera {especially for mommy!} so we have fun taking little snapshots. 🙂

GeeDunk Picture
Grove City College’s alumni magazine, The GeeDunk, has a section that shows off all the babies born to alums. All you have to do is let them know you had a baby, they send you a t-shirt, you take a picture of baby in t-shirt and send the picture back to GCC. Then they publish it in the next issue. I finally contacted the college after Christmas and we got our shirt a few weeks ago. Took some pictures of Levi today (more to come!) and we finally have a GeeDunk picture! I am absolutely in love with this picture …
Happy V-Day!
Happy Valentine’s Day! Sending everyone lots of love!
Sick
That time of year. Everyone has something. Ugh. We have all been a mess since we got home from Christmas. Mike has been the exception – he has stayed pretty healthy through it all. I have had some sort of crud for weeks. Finally feeling better but still not great. Levi has had a persistent cold, an eye infection and now an ear infection (with a much nastier cold!). Needless to say, I am exhausted and very ready to have everyone well again.
First Christmas
We traveled to MD for a week to visit with family and friends. Here are some pictures of Levi’s first Christmas!
Thanksgiving
Thanksgiving was very low-key this year. We stayed home since we had traveled the whole eastern seaboard in September and October. It was lovely to not have to travel! We were especially glad because Little Man got his first cold right before Thanksgiving (which has now turned into croup and an ear infection….). Here is a very unhappy and sick Levi on his first Thanksgiving. 🙂 My sister came to visit and we had our friends Brian & Lindsay and their little guy over for dinner. It was a team effort for dinner – way to take the pressure …
5 Months
Time is flying – although some days it definitely doesn’t feel like it! Our little boy is 5 months old now! He is working on sitting up and rolling over but still has yet to do either. He is “talking” a lot now and is so much fun to interact with. He really does not like tummy time and will roll right off his stomach and onto his back. We went to the doctor just a few days ago for a reflux check and Levi weighed 17 lbs 4 oz. Big boy! Mommy got a new camera the other week …
Baby’s First Halloween!
This past weekend, exactly one year ago, we found out we were pregnant! I was also still hobbling around recovering from my disastrous injury. This year we have a very active and healthy 4 month old that got dressed up as a penguin – thanks to Aunt Sarah! It is amazing to see all that has changed in a year! This past week we also broke out the jumperoo (thanks Aunt Erin!). It is safe to say that Levi LOVES it! He was a little confused at first but once he figured out that he was supposed to jump …
4 Months!
I can’t believe how delinquent I have been on updating our blog! I got on here to post Levi’s 4 month picture and realized I haven’t posted anything since his 3 month picture! Will try and get better. 🙂 We have had a busy month full of traveling. We traveled up to Pittsburgh for my dear friend Jenna’s wedding and then down to MD to visit with the family for a week. Home now until Christmas. Whew!Levi goes to the doctor tomorrow so we’ll find out how big he has gotten – my guess – 16 lbs! We’ll see!
Road Trip!
Way back last spring my dear friend, Jenna, asked me to be a bridesmaid in her wedding. I, of course, said yes – couldn’t wait! A few months later we learned that we were pregnant and we would have a little one in tow for all of her wedding festivities. September has come – so hard to believe! – and we made our first of two trips to Pittsburgh this past weekend. This trip was for her shower and we will return in a month for the wedding! We also stopped over in East Liverpool to visit my family. Levi …
