Power nap

My son got a power nap in on his way to lunch. Truth be told, he slept through most of lunch in my lap.

Things made...

This weekend's theme seems to be things made and more importantly, things finished! I began a project many (4 or 5ish) years ago. I have not finished piecing the top yet but I'm nearly there. I finished piecing the 20 log cabin blocks for the border. I'm rather proud of that.

My sister did finish her quilt top. The center is not a panel! She took a piece of muslin fabric and fused snippets of various colored fabric. Then she put a fine netting over it. She thread painted over it. The border is a new variation on stack-n-wack.

The third picture is of Levi and I ready for church. Levi is sporting his new tie that his Nana made for him. The button is a lion. I am wearing a crocheted infinity scarf that I made.

Weekend of fun!

Levi "helped" me clean the bathroom. He took a bunch of stuff out from the cabinet that is usually locked. At least I got the counter cleaned off.

Saturday we too Levi, E, and B to my dad's farm. They ran around and had fun. On the way back they, of course, all 3 fell asleep.

Levi lately...

Levi has learned to run...FAST. So I have not posted much lately since I spend all my time chasing him, working grading massive piles of student work, and occasionally trying to get caught up on laundry.
I am amazed at how quickly he is growing and learning! I recieved text from my mother in law, who is watching him today, he went pee pee in the potty today! Jesse and I hadn't planned to start potty training until he was at least 2 years old if not older. Now we are scrambling to get a training potty and books on how to do this, since he is showing an interest in it.

15 month

Levi is 15 months old today!

Levi & drum

This has been in draft form for a while and I just stumbled upon it a few minutes ago. It has been busy lately, Levi is walking now.

Spaghetti and giggles

It was a Good Friday!!

Levi is 9 months old now! We have taken him to the Dallas Arboretum two times in the last month. Today we took his Easter pictures. Here are a few...








This one is my favorite!

He loves to bang the eggs together. He has not figured out that there is food inside the eggs. We put the little puffs that dissolve in their mouth inside the eggs, since he is not ready for real candy.

He loves to take the eggs out of the basket, not put them back in, so tomorrow's Easter egg hunt should be interesting!

He is very serious about this egg hunt business.

 

 Yet highly distractable since there is so much going on around him. There were millions of people there today it seemed.

 

Daddy loving on him! 

:-)

Hanging out at the park bench.

 

His expression here is cute.

 

He had fun snapping the head of the tulips off.

 Yet another expression. Love the eyebrows!

 Loosened up a bit here and cracked a smile.

Crawled all over the place. 

At one point he had an egg on the concrete walkway. 

He tried to pick it up but it popped out of his hand. 

So he crawled to it. Tried to pick it up. It popped out of his hand.

So he crawled to it... 

You get the idea!

He didn't nap while we were there but he was asleep before we pulled out of our parking spot. He slept while we ate out and all the way home.

It was a Good Friday! Thank you Lord for ALL the gifts you have given us, your Son and my son! And the best husband a person could ask for!
