Levi had his 2nd birthday this week. He had lots of fun being the center of attention. We celebrated by doing stuff he likes with him. We made a pit full of balloons, played cars and blocks, let him be the leader while we copied his moves. We danced and played duck, duck, goose and hide and seek. Clara and Greta made a yummy carrot cake for him. I took him and Adam to see Cars 2 at the theater.
He is such a fun kid, he walked around with the bucket on his head. I love the shot of his sad face, that bottom lip. He is starting to talk and we understand him. His older brothers and sisters love to practice words with him. The other day he asked for a 8th helping of noodles and I said, "Seriously? he answered back, "Seriously!" I cracked up.
We loved our family vacation to Florida this summer. We swam in the pools, the beaches, went to an Indian Mound, schoolhouse from 1917, and stopped by the site of the Battle of Vicksburg to tour. We loved having friends and family to hang out with and enjoyed the cooler weather.
We cooked a couple of eggs one afternoon on our driveway, they didn't sizzle but they definitely were cooked. I have loved the clouds this week in the morning. When it started to thunder on Monday, I got back in bed just to listen to the rumble.
Clara got brave and cut 8 inches off her hair and she LOVES it! She told me that she thought she liked long hair, but there are so many things to love about her short hair. I think it is adorable.
