Growing Up

This week Levi has grown by leaps and bounds! He is now pulling up on everything! He's still pretty unsteady, and is constantly (it seems) falling and hitting his head. Wow, I can't believe this child! I guess he feels like he needs to be able to run after big sister.

Levi also learned Patty-Cake this week. He is so cute clapping his hands along with us. I'll try to get a video of him.

Funny Story (mainly a memory I don't want to forget) - You know the picture of Levi's guacamole face in the last post? Well, we brought home the leftover guacamole and I fed it to Levi for lunch the next day. About two hours later I was changing his diaper and he was laughing when I noticed what appeared to be a hole a little smaller than a dime in the roof of his mouth. I nearly had a heart attack! I was scared to stick my finger in and feel it, but I was thinking how in the world did a hole in his palate just show up? They did a CT scan to make sure the palate was intact. Obviously my mind was racing. I finally got brave, pried his mouth open, stuck my finger in, and realized it wasn't a hole, but a piece of jalapeno pepper from the guacamole! I was so relieved I started crying (thank you, pregnancy hormones!)

Lily is doing great! She is feeling 100% better, or at least acts like she does. Her favorite thing to do, as of today, is to brush my hair and pretend to put make-up on me. It is hilarious! She gets my hairspray, lotion, mascara, etc, and pretends to pour each one on a make-up brush and then wipes it on my face. This kept her occupied for at least 30 minutes this afternoon. She doesn't try to open the bottles, so I'm really glad about that!

Hope you all have a wonderful weekend!
