New Things

This week has been filled with fun new things for Levi, and for us too! Here's a quick look at what we've been up to.

Levi has been attending church with us since he was 6 days old. I know they tell you to stay at home for longer, but I was already stir crazy and in need of some social interaction. We feed him, wrap him up in his car seat and sit in the back on the aisle in case we need to step outside. So far I've only had to leave the service once to feed him and the other times he's slept right on through. We're enjoying that time out of the house and he's doing great in his car seat. He's probably used to all the music and Pastor Glen's voice anyway from being there every Sunday in my tummy! The past two weeks we've stepped up his wardrobe a little and got some good use out of all the cute clothes he has. He busted out his first pair of jeans, a polo onesie and shoes last week. He's so cute we had to take a picture of our little man!

He went to the doctor with me this week to get the all clear. I think he was a little bored! Dr. Pinkus was excited to see him again and we both were given a clean bill of health. Now it's time to hit the gym! :)

We met up with our good friends Sheri and Stevie this week for a walk on the Strand. These two don't know it yet but they're going to be very good friends! It was a great time to talk with someone who is going through exactly what I'm going through and get a little exercise in the process. Hopefully this was the first of many!

This weekend we had the Holmes' and the Smarts and the Wimers (minus Travis) over for dinner. We had a potluck bbq and enjoyed having all three little ones together for the first time. Here's all the new daddies and kiddos. What a difference a year makes!

How hard is it to photograph three kids???

We've enjoyed Skype-ing with Grammy and Grandpa this week too! Levi is all smiles and coos as he listens to their voices and tries to figure out what's going on. This Saturday we brought out the Bumbo seat for him to sit on while we're talking and he loved it! It's a little early for him to use it but he has pretty good neck control and seemed to enjoy it. Way to go Levi!

That's been our week of firsts! Another first at the moment-- single parenthood! Dave has been in Houston overnight so Levi and I have been home alone for the first time. It went ok. Let's just say I'm exhausted and SOOOO glad I don't have to do this by myself all the time. So glad Daddy is coming home tonight!
