"Dog"

Levi has learned another new word-"dog". He actually says "da" but hey, close enough. He just started saying it today. After each time I say "dog", he says, "da". There are two dogs around here so he gets plenty of practice! Levi is getting so big and is getting heavier and heavier to carry around. We haven't had an appt in awhile but when I weigh him on the scale with me he ranges from 20-22 lbs. He hasn't walked yet, but has learned how to climb up stairs, which I learned just as he had climbed two and was falling backwards. I guess gates are a necessity now! He will be 11 months in another week; time flies!

Girlfriend's Birthday Party!

Levi and Sierra really are good friends! She has kissed him a couple of times! It is fun to watch them interact and play together.

Taking time to inspect each thing in the basket and then set it aside and reach for the next thing! It kept him busy for about 45 minutes while mom did laundry! Who would have thought?

Still House Hunting

The whole house hunting project takes A LONG TIME. For some reason it seems to be taking longer for us, but maybe that is because we were ready to buy a house the day we started looking. We have found a couple that we like so far and have made a few offers. One of the houses that we had made an offer on got a second offer and the seller took that offer so no go for us. The house we have made an offer on isn't going anywhere so we are looking around first before we counter-offer on that one. Someday we will have a house, the Lord willing! Just wanted to update everyone on the whole housing situation.

Homer

We took a trip down to Homer, Alaska with some friends! John went on a halibut charter. It was such a beautiful day, we all got a little color!
