Our Mischievous Little Man!

This was the week of Mischievous Levi! He is super fast, super smart, and super super curious. Jenny turned around to put his diaper in the Diaper Genie (a parental must-have) and found our little man sporting a pseudo milk-mustache a-la baby powder.

But why stop there... later in the week he enjoyed a nice handful of tissue paper.

This week we got the joy of watching the Dalach boys for a couple hours. Wow, sometimes I forget how small newborns really are!

Now I know that Levi loves to walk up to the TV and try to turn it on; however I had no idea how much he touched the screen! The finger/hand prints were almost too cute to wipe away (almost).


Another phenomenon of super Levi is his reach. Jenny thought the banana was well out of his reach. It was not. He loves being a big boy and feeding himself. There's really no harm other than the mess that will need to be cleaned up after... we just got to make sure he doesn't stain his clothes!

"Don't worry, I got this"

We had a free weekend! So, with a city of endless activities we decided to try to check out the Transformers 3 set... along with the rest of Chicago.

If you zoom in on this picture you can see a lot of the fake destruction and smoke... all in all, it was a nice day downtown filled with shopping, eating, and walking, and Levi napped.


If the banana wasn't enough, he also managed to grab Jenny's apple off the couch and finish it off (under her supervision).

"I'm big-boy!"

Today Aunt Martha, Uncle Ed, Uncle Dave, and Aunt Leslie came to visit. It was a good time with great food at Candlelite (amazing thin-crust pizza) and a nice walk in Roscoe Village, which included a visit to this pet boutique where Levi got a little lovin' from one of the "owners."

Well, only one more week before Jenny and I are the parents of a one-year-old... AH! He is getting so big and is an absolute joy! God has truly blessed us with Levi. Thank you all for taking the time to take interest in our lives and have a wonderful last week of Levi's first year!
