Lots of sick days

Staying home

Lazy morning

Levi words

Tonight I did something that made Levi mad and he scolded me "No do that little boy mommy!"

Levi words

The last several days Levi has been sick with stomach flu.  The little guy kept saying "My tummy is upside down" and "There's a baby sister in my tummy."  Apparently both of those comments mean his tummy hurts.

It's snowing today, and Levi is so excited.  He calls snow "no" ("there's no outside!") and when it's snowing it's "no-ing."

He uses "er" for several different words.  Such as "Er coming too?" and "Er wants some."  It's adorable!

Levi words

Last night I slept in the bunk with Levi. He went to sleep before I was in bed so he didn't know I was there. When he woke up he was irate and told me "No me want you in mine bed!" Then he said he was going to take his monkey blanket and go sleep somewhere else, and told me to get off his monkey blanket!  Little brat child!
