Whew!


Well, I have been chastised long enough for failing to provide my adoring readers with pictures of Levi. The last seven weeks have been a whirlwind! I have much to update everyone on but will have to do it bit by bit. To hold you over, here is our little guy at six weeks. He is growing like a weed. I know he weighed twelve pounds at five weeks and who knows where he is now! He smiles a lot at his siblings, never stops moving, and loves attention. He seems happy to be along for the ride. He's eating, sleeping, and surviving well in our busy household. He does seem to be my most sensitive baby to noise so I'm not sure how that's going to work out for him. : ) As a matter of fact, Kailey apparently just woke him up so I'll have to go for now. She has got to stop doing that!!! I hear John V telling her that as he yells up the stairs to me that he'll handle it. Hmm, why am I not sure I want a four-year-old "handling it?" I'll try to do better about keeping you posted!

I knew when you posted on the Carder's blog you must be back! :)

I have tried really hard not to bother you for a picture or two and so I am thrilled that there is a new one of sweet Levi! He looks so much like what I remember of LJ. Hope all is well and glad you are posting again. Your blog is always one of my favorites. :)

Your absence is much understood . . .but you have been missed. I so enjoyed getting a little peek at your wee one the other night at church - he is adorable and looks just like a Critz baby should, I think!!

Awwww...he's so cute! I can just hear John and the "i'll handle it".
Hugs!

Cutie, cutie!! Nice to see you back here, although we all completely understand your absence:)

Thanks for the comment on my blog the other day. It was very sweet and meant a lot:) You were one of the ones who inadvertently persuaded me to homeschool my kiddos. I'm thinking others might be following persuit as well.

He's so precious! I can't wait to meet him in person one of these days.

Maybe Kailey thinks she's just "helping" when she "accidentally" wakes him up, haha. I know that was the case when I became a big sister at the age of 3!

Have a great weekend.
