Keith & Martha Crawford

At CMU! Lucky me. Thought I’d update my blog, since a lot has happened since last time. Levi has 2 new tricks: one makes me say “AHHHHHH” and the other makes me say “AWWWWW”. I finished the quilt I was working on, with loads of help from Levi. In other news, Levi now has four…

Classes were cancelled yesterday because of a power outage on campus. What a great way to start the semester! 🙂 So I stayed home and played Susie-Homemaker. I pulled out some frozen turkey broth leftover from Thanksgiving and made a super yummy turkey soup with yummy root veggies like rutabaga and carrots and green onions,…

And happy new tooth too! Yup, this morning I discovered tooth number 3. Looks like Levi is about to get his top teeth now! We had a good, if not busy, Christmas holiday. It was fun with all the grandparents and even though Levi didn’t understand what this gift wrap stuff was all about, he…

We had a great Thanksgiving; we visited with Grandparents and great grandparents and were stuffed fuller than the turkeys. And best of all, it snowed! Not just a bit, but some great big fluffy flakes. It was so pretty. It’s been so long since we’ve had snow before or on Thanksgiving. It covers all the…

Last night was Lansing’s Annual Silver Bells Festival. We took Levi and it was really neat to see the look on his face as the parade went through. The Marching Bands were loud and he was fascinated by the drums. And all the floats were lit up with lights; Levi was just in awe. Look…

Since it is the month of Thanksgiving (My favorite holiday!) I though I would list the things that I am thankful for, one for every day of the month. Today is the 9th, so I have some catching up to do. Each time I update the site, I will post from the last day posted…

Yay! What fun, for us anyway. 🙂 Levi had a big day: he helped carve a pumpkin, dressed up and paraded through Menards, and then we went Trick-or-Treating during his nap time. Which means I had a fussy baby when I got home, but it was fun and we got some good pics. Will I…
