Levi is 17 months old!

Here we are, almost a year and a half.  I'm actually behind on this post so in a few shorts weeks Levi will hit the halfway mark on his way to two.  Yikes!


Levi finally gathered up enough courage and tackled the climbing toys at the mall.  He is still not a risk taker by any means, but he does enjoy running around 'attempting' to climb and slide down the toys.  On the steep ones he still feels better if I hold his hand when he comes down.  I don't mind obliging.  So sweet!

His new favorite game is standing on the couch and trying to say "1, 2, 3" and then he falls down.  It sounds more like "da, tha, weee!!"  With a high pitch ending. 
 

"They put this here just for me?"  Genius!  Whoever thought of this at Town & Country must have had kids.

Soaking up the sun(actually staying in the shade) while it is still PLENTY hot!

Levi absolutely loves to hide and then be chased...as long as you aren't acting too scary.  Apparently my scary is pretty tame.  When other people chase him, he is much more scared. 

What would we do without that dog? :D

Stirring up some mysterious potion....still a favorite activity wherever we are.

First yogurt Popsicle.  He didn't even get a fourth of it eaten before he moved on to something he found more interesting.  Keller didn't mind finishing it off though.
 

We enjoyed a long trip to Nebraska this month to celebrate my cousin's wedding with my dad's side of the family.  Levi's enjoying my Grandma's tree.
 

Naps were a bit difficult to get in with all the hustle and bustle.  Poor guy!
 

My cousin Emily and her sweet babe, Gus.
 

My grandparents.
 

Grandparents and the great-grand babies.
 

That's right...a pic of just the two of us.  We realized when putting together a photo album for our adoption that we basically haven't taken a picture of just us two since we had Levi.  :/
 

My sweet sisters and I.  Love them!
 

Did I mention the wedding was great....and rather warm.  We roasted!  :D
 

Twinkies!  Love these two so very much!
 

We visited the Omaha zoo while in NE.  The aquarium was definitely the coolest thing!  So fun!
 
 

My mom does such a great job loving on all the grand kids!
 

Hi there monkey!
