6 months!

A whole half year already!My little bald and still blue eyes baby is still a very happy guy. He has regressed a little in sleeping. He was sleeping in his crib swaddled, but then he started rolling. I'd swaddle him, he'd roll on his belly, get stuck, get mad and cry.

So right now Levi sleeps all night long, but in the swing, not in his crib. And it is with the swing off. We'll work on it. But for now, he sleeps all night and it isn't in my bed, so I'm okay with it! So cute!

If you have forgotten...

I am lazy.

Not only am I lazy, but I hate to spoon feed babies.

Levi has entered that "let's try solids" phase. Yuck.

So, like the other two, if he wants it, he needs to get it in his mouth. (I am well aware of the fact that I will not be getting mother of the year ever.)

He is doing very well with the self feeding and loving making the mess.

These hands are amazing.

Levi found his hands.

He finds them very impressive.

Healthy boys!

Work has been keeping me busy! But things are good.

The boys had their well baby/child check ups yesterday. Since I was at work, Casey took them.

Austin at 3 years is....
39 3/4 inches tall and weighs 35 lbs, he's 1.5 inches taller than Georgia at 3, but they weighed the same. Austin was so excited to see corn in the grocery store. There was no way he was going home without some.Levi at 4 months is...
26 1/4 inches tall and weighs 16lbs 12ozs! He's 20 ounces fatter than both Georgia & Austin at the same age! And he is taller than both of them. There was a concern from the steroid he was on that his growth could be restricted, obviously not a problem. Levi tried a couple bites of cereal, he wasn't impressed. We'll try it again in a week or so.

A Quick Update

Well, if you haven't heard, I finally got a job! It only took 10 months to find one. I'm pretty excited about it. I start on June 21st. It's just a lab tech position working with metal alloys, but it is a whole new field for me and I'm excited to learn it.

The position is also 2nd shift. That is going to take some creative thought to work out. I am training on first shift, and then moving to 2nd. Our daycare lady closes at 6pm. Casey's mom is going to help out until the start of the school year with the 6pm until Case is done working time, we just need to work out something for the fall.

Georgia is beyond excited to start going back to daycare full time. She is the type that has to be doing something or going somewhere. She is also my little Mama. She loves to help with Levi.And speaking of Levi, did you see who still has blue eyes? The hair that is coming in is so light. The recessive genes are strong in this boy!And my other boy. Austin is such a die hard farmer. He farmed himself to sleep the other day! He broke the hitch on his toy plow and he sobbed for hours. When I ask him what he wants for his birthday he replies, "Skid steers, tractors and dump trucks!".

Levi

His eyes are still blue and the little bit of hair he has is blonde! He's getting so big. He is so happy. He completely lights up like this whenever he sees a face he knows.
His gangster baby look.
I brought out the excersaucer and thought that he'd still be too little to use it. He loves it. Just look at that face... "Of course I'm big enough for this Mom. What did you think? That I'm some sort of tiny baby? Watch me even grab my toys and drop them on the floor!"He is also a drool/spit up monster. He always needs a bib on.
