“Serve the LORD in sincerity and in truth... Choose you this day whom you will serve.
But as for me and my house, we will serve the LORD.”

As Naomi's arrival gets closer and closer I feel the need to put my little guy in the spotlight. Why? Because he is amazing. I know I'm his mother, but he really is. He is so intelligent that everyday he blows me away by the way his mind works. He is constantly developing new skills and learning new things, most of which he discovers on his own. He also has a huge sense of humor. He loves to joke around and be silly. He has the best smile of anyone I know, and everytime I see it I fall in love with him all over again. I never knew that motherhood would be so amazing and change my life so much. He has truly been one of the greatest blessings of my life. I'm so honored to be his mother, and I can't wait to see him meet his sister and be the best big brother that I know he will be. Thanks for making life more adventurous and wonderful each day. Here are a few things about Levi. (Mostly for my benefit, but feel free to read on.)
  • He is so obedient and polite. Seriously, and the closer to Naomi's arrival the better he gets and the less we have to remind him.
  • He enjoys watching movies/tv. Of his favorites are Dinosaur Train, The Cat in the Hat, VeggieTales, Curious George, and Cars. The Narnia movies are a new fascination.
  • He is really enjoying Christmas this year and loving all teh decorations -especially the lights!
  • He is obsessed with all things automotive. Cars, trucks, trains, tractors, motorcycles, big macks (18 wheelers), bikes, airplanes, etc.
  • He is all boy. He loves to run, jump, and play in the dirt.
  • He loves our dog, Dodger, and unfortunately torments him day and night.
  • He sleeps in a big boy bed.
  • He is completely potty trained.
  • He loves to eat. Among his favorites are chicken nuggets, cheese, fruit, dried mangos, raisins, fruit snacks, fruit bars, chicken, and pasta.
  • He growls at everything (because he loves dinosaurs).
  • He wears 3T clothes.
  • He loves music and dancing, and playing (beating on) the paino.
  • He enjoys going to Bible Study (BSF) every week.
  • He loves his grandparents and ask for them on a daily basis.
  • He enjoys reading.
  • He loves football, and will watch it with us all afternoon. Go Dawgs!
  • He loves animals.
  • He can count to 10.
  • He can sing the ABC's (with help from mommy).
  • He adores his Poppy. Aaron is his hero.
  • He knows my name and his poppy's name as well as his full name.
  • Whenever he gets a boo boo he wants his mommy to kiss it. I love it.
