Wrestling Match
Usually my sweet husband gives Levi a bath, tonight I gave it to him for reasons I will get to in a minute. Bath time with a crawler/cruiser is not bath time, as much as a wrestling match. First thing he does when I put him in 3 inches of water is pull up using the faucet. Then he promptly falls face first into the water. He gasps breath inward so that when he hits the water mouth first, he sucks in a big gulp of it. Like lightning I pick him up gagging and sputtering. More of the same happens for the next 10-15 minutes until I pull him out.
Now, why me tonight? A few nights ago Jesse used his multi-tool saw thing to cut some dry wall. We are hanging our TV out of reach of little hands, so we have to do some rewiring. Well when Levi heard the high-pitched dental-like drill sound, his bottom lip tucked in, his eyes got huge, and he sucked in a big breath for a terrified wail! I have never seen a look of sheer terror on his face before.
Problem was that we weren't done sawing yet. I took Levi in the other room so it wouldn't be as loud. His lip still quivered. He kept leaning to see what was making the noise but then shying away and clinging to me, not quite sure what to do.
So last night I put Levi in the bath with some water running, the radio blaring on my phone and the heater going. That way he wouldn't hear the saw. It worked! Whew!

8 months
Last month Levi learned how to crawl on all fours. This month he has perfected this mode of locomotion. He has become really fast. One minute he is in the living room with me, the next he is through the kitchen, going to the bedroom to find Daddy.
He continues to play with new faces and sounds. Just today he started making a face he learned long ago and has not done in a long time. The "Ooh" face. I have not captured it on camera recently but I will keep trying to get it.
Taking pictures of him has become quite interesting. He loves the camera. He wants to play with the camera. ...Our really nice camera... I think not.
This is the official 8 month old picture. It took some doing to get him sitting next to the Tigger long enough to snap the shot.
Do you see the cuteness I have to put up with? Yea, life is good!

Freyja
I have the best dog ever! Freyja is constantly by Levi's side. When he pulls her hair, she licks his face to make him let go! He of course thinks she is hilarious when she catches a ball, plays with Isis or pants in his face.
However, Levi does not think she is funny all the time. Like when Levi is playing with the doggie door. Usually Freyja is careful when she comes in the doggie door now, but sometimes she forgets and runs over Levi. He will eventually learn to not hang out by the doggie door.
As of today Levi is 8 months old!
