Little Man Showcase

I love this picture of him.
He's still so little (but growing well - 7 lbs 15.2 oz yesterday!). Both of our babies have had Matt's ape-ishly long arms as you can tell here. I'm not kidding about Matt's arms. He's got a 6'5" wingspan!
The last couple of days Levi has treated us with smiles. He doesn't always give them, but when he does they're intentional and very sweet. This is a smaller one, but it's all we have on camera so far.
Proud Daddy and his look-alike.
We got a picture like this when Hailey was a baby. It was one of my favorite so we tried it with Levi. I love it.
Mommy and baby. I adore him, obviously.
Sister showing the love (she has LOTS to show).
Monkey face.

Obviously Levi didn't like this idea tonight. He even showcased his purple crying face. Hailey loves it when I put him in bed with her. It's a great distraction to occasional pre-bed grumpy moments. She really is a good big sister. We're still working on being gentle, but I'm sure that will come with time and age.
He makes her look like a giant! She's about 37"and he's 21.5".
Funny Hailey story of the day: I was feeding Levi on the couch and had dozed off. I woke up and looked up just in time to see Hailey sitting down of the toilet. However, she apparently forgot to put her seat on that time because next thing I knew I saw her little feet up in the air. She quickly pulled herself out and I busted up laughing to myself. She came running out saying "my fall down. My all wet." I had Hailey tell Matt when he got home and laughed and gave her a hug. He asked why I didn't get a picture - she was just too quick getting out. Thank goodness I had just scrubbed the toilets last night.
Oh, and no, I'm not potty training yet. If Hailey had her way she'd be trained. She knows all the steps from stripping to washing (she even picks up and puts the toilet seat down), but I just haven't been brave enough to attempt training with a brand new baby. That's our next big adjustment project. I think she'll finish up quickly.

He is way too adorable! Just like Hailey is. I love you sharing your photos and life with us, it means so much to us. That would have been funny to see of Hailey in the toilet, I am sure it won't be the last as long as you have boys around and they forget to put the seat down and you go to use the potty at 3 am and next thing you know you are in it all the way!!

You are a great Mother and they are blessed to have you and Matt as their parents. It was great to talk to you on the phone the other day. You look beautiful. We love you!
