6 weeks, (late) and no pictures

I was SO hoping to find my camera battery charger before now. ): But I fear it is in the garbage. So for a buck 4.09 I am getting a new one from Ebay. In the mean time I don't have any new pictures of the cutest baby in SC. :) He is doing well. But he is coming down with a cold. I so hate when babies have colds. I thank the Lord we have been well for MANY months! I don't take that for granted for a second. God has been so good to us. With Levi snorting and hacking, it was a long night last night. I was pooped out today.

We are just plugging along. There isn't a whole lot going on of particulars. We do miss our WA friends and church. I wish it weren't so far and we could come there for Christmas. But we'll be going to AR. I am looking forward to that. We have a great church there as well and I look forward to seeing our friends. There are a few new babies there too so it will be fun showing off each other's little ones. :)

Well, I just wanted to post a little bit. Hopefully my charger gets here early next week and I can put up more cute pictures. :)

We love you all! Please keep us in your prayers.

Dad and Baby

Can you tell they are related? :)

Week 5

Yet another week has gone by. They are flying out the door too. Nothing new really going on. We did have a bout with thrush. Not fun, but we survived. Levi is just a sweet little guy. We are all so in love. The kids are still a wonderful help to me and I am eternally grateful for what they do. He still is sleeping good at night and has a lot of awake time during the day. I got some rare pictures of him actually sleeping. :) He is wide awake at the moment enjoying Samuel time. :):) He has the brightest eyes. I do believe he is starting to smile for real now. That is quite precious.

Well, not much else to report. All is well in our neck of the woods. We love and miss you all! Take care and may the Lord bless you all!

Week 4

Can you believe that??? Time is going quickly. Levi is a wonderful little feller! He has his fussy moments though. I am not sure what is up with him. As far as I can tell he is just fighting sleep. He acts like he is in serious pain, but if you can get him to calm down he zonks right out. He is still a great baby! I am in love!

I am posting some pictures of the kids tonight. It is right before bed. :) So they aren't the best, but at least you can see them. I am so very blessed with these little ones. I thank the Lord for them. They have been so VERY helpful during this pregnancy and beyond. They are great about taking Levi in the morning for me so I can get a bit more rest. I have a wonderful bunch here that is FOR SURE! :)

P.S. There is a spot on the picture with Sam and Levi. It happens when I do the red eye so I just left it...after the third time I edited it. I didn't know what was worse, the silly mark or the blaring red eyes. :)

Week 3

There isn't a lot to post about. I am still working on gaining my strength. I didn't realize being old and having a baby was so tiring. :) I am getting there slowly but surely. Anyway, Levi is doing well and growing. I can't believe it has been three weeks already. I have a few pictures I just took. He seems to change by the week. I think he is looking more like Daddy each day. He is still a great little one and so sweet! We are so very blessed!

Take care and God bless!!

Week 2

I can't believe that Baby Levi is 2 weeks old today. My how time flies when baby gets here. I can't say the last two weeks of pregnancy went that fast. :)

All is going quite well. He still has his days and nights in the right order, Praise the Lord! He is a very noisy little feller though and about to get me kicked out of my bed. LOL! He grunts, sounds like a donkey and just seems to sings when he eats. It wakes Shane up and he is the one who has to be up at 5 a.m. It is cute, though, when he makes all the noise. He is a wonderful baby and great eater. I will go on Wed for a weight check and I am certain he doesn't weigh 9 pounds anymore. :) I love it!!

We are still getting into the swing of things. I am sure we'll have a good routine soon or at least eventually. :) I sure know I am in love with a great little guy. I am soooo thankful everyday!! God has been sooo GREAT to us! I pray we never take it for granted.

Week One

Baby Levi is an amazing little guy! We are soooo blessed! And I am soooo in love! He eats every two hours day and night. Try as I may I can't change that. He has chubby cheeks to maintain, so I guess I have to provide for that. :) He sleeps at night and wakes only to eat. I am thankful he has the days and nights figured out so soon. Sure that might change, but for now, I am thankful.

My in-laws left today. It went well and they were a wonderful help! The kids got to fish in a pond here with Grandpa and they caught LOTS of fish. None of which you can eat, but they enjoyed themselves. Hopefully we didn't drive them too crazy. :)

I can't believe a week has passed. Not sure where it went, but I am delighted to have him here.
