Time flies when, well, you know the phrase...

So the past month and a half has brought lots of night-time baths, loads of laundered diapers, and our first few trips to see family overnight (and our first night out, thanks to Mom…and no thanks to a cranky Levi).  Levi turned 4 months old last week, weighing in at 17 pounds and 2 ounces and measuring 26.75 inches long (83% for weight, 98% for height), and life doesn't stop at that…I spotted his first teeth coming in yesterday and found him, after crying out at 4:30 am, on his tummy in his crib!  Yikes.

I have many thoughts as the weeks roll quickly by, but I don't think I record or gather them well... something to work on.  In the mean time, enjoy!

I love these boys.

First try with the Bumbo...

Overalls!

Best buds.

Cool dude.

More best buds.

I know they're small, but look a them…TEETH!!!

Meeting Gma for the first time!

Silly little man with Grandpa and Grandma R.

Meeting the Mitchell cousins for the first time!  Adeline knows how to make him giggle :)

First Easter!

Meeting GG for the first time!

Meeting G (Genevieve, of course) and Aunt Emily for the first time.

Levi, Sir Laugh-a-Lot

Our Sleeping Angel

Inconceivable!

Drum roll please...

Levi had his 2 month appointment today…2 months old!  Exciting and sad at the same time with his first round of shots.  But our sweet boy who started off at 7 lb 5 oz and 20 inches long is much bigger now: 13 lb 4 oz and 24 inches!  He's already 2 feet tall, which seems silly to say because he doesn't stand up.  Hopefully he won't grow out of his car seat and all his clothing too soon…

For he's a jolly good fellow.

I'm talking about Levi, and he's a jolly good baby for dealing with a mom who 1) forced an impromptu "photo shoot" before nap time and 2) lacks the creativity to make it a great one.  We'll get better, and next time, perhaps we'll get the aesthetically creative parent (that would be Jonathan) to help out.  Thank goodness for the redeeming qualities of bold primary colors, stuffed animals, and cloth diapers.

And this morning's text greeting to Daddy on his way to work...

Proof of Life…not the movie.

But it is a video.  Let's see if this works; haven't tried to load a video on the blog yet.
