True, all out crawling. He’s done figured it out now! No more rocking, no more scooching. Now we really MUST baby proof. And if I can figure out how to post a video, I can post that… Hey Matt – you wanna see it??? Tell me how! But of course, I do have other photos…

Wanted to share our dining experience last evening. I made Italian breaded pork chops with spaghetti marinara on the side and salad. That means Levi got Spaghetti Marinara with a couple cucumber slices on the side. The results speak for themselves: Knowing that spaghetti is going to be a messy endeavor, we decided to just…

No, I missed the KR fly-in this year. The week before the gathering I found out that I had scheduled my vacation for the worng week. OOPS! Well, I have lots of time to work on the KR. Here are some pictures I took of my progress. < — Levi, don't hit Daddy with airplane…

There is something to be said about over-thinking stuff… 😉 As is wont to happen when starting solids, Levi’s had a bit of trouble moving things along, as evidenced by the streak and occasional solid pellet bit in his diaper, and the shrieks and wails coming from his as he pushed them out. So I…

I went to the Whole Foods Market in Ann Arbor – why don’t we have one in Lansing??? – and bought some wheat berries so that I could try my hand at whole wheat bread. I’ve tried before but have always been sorely disappointed with the texture and raising of wheat bread using premilled flour.…

So at our 4 month check up with Levi, our pediatrician said that we could go ahead and start “solids”, meaning cereal, either rice or oats, mixed with breastmilk. He has good head control, can sit unaided (in the tripod) and regular sitting with only us helping to stabilize him, and can transfer objects from…

What summer without a bit of swimming? And why not go for a helicopter ride while you are at it? The other gal is Victoria, from my church. She’s 7 months pregnant and Greg’s wild side (the pilot) got the best of her belly. She started to get nauseous so we came down.

So we’ve given the little guy bits of avocado, which he loves. The occasional bit of banana, let him suck the juice out of a muskmelon and turn the pulp to mush, which he also seems to like. A few cheerios that he has mashed into oblivion. In the last week or so, though, he’s…

It’s been quite a month for little Levi! He went on his first camping trip, and when we came back he laughed for the first time. Apparently, spitting up on Mommy after a big belch at 1:30 a.m. is pretty funny. 😀 But there we were, all three of us on the bed at 1:30…

Well, first off, it is Keith’s birthday today. Happy Birthday Honey!!! It is also one year ago today that Levi became a part of our lives. He didn’t look like much then, but here’s what he looks like now:
