Levi Grows: 1 Month Away...

I guess I have to say it. Levi is 11 months. I was trying to get out of it since February 30th doesn't exist : ) I just can not believe that he will be 1 year old at the end of the month. Time slow down! 

Things he loves: 

- crawling and exploring

- pulling up and cruising 

- push toys

- chewing on his tooth brush

- eating anything

- saying mama

- saying bye and waving

- playing peek a boo- that he initiates (from the side of the couch in particular)

- try to throw a ball; he holds it over his head and jerks arms down but the ball rarely leaves his hands

- being read to and turning the page/ flap books

- baths

- being carried around 

- cuddling 

- brush his own hair

- play with his sisters

- holding his own bottle or water cup

- he is a good carseat rider 

- facetiming Mom at work 

When we came back from our trip to KY and TN we went all in with Levi in the crib. He sleeps in there every nap and every night now. No more merlin :( Some nights he does great and others we have to go in a lot and help him lay back down. We have put about 6 pacifiers in his crib in hopes he will find them in the middle of night and plug himself. 

Also he got his hair cut this past month. His first "real" hair cut. It aged him! 

Before and After

 Levi also enjoys playing with his friends. His neighbor Ila came over and we babysat Jackson one day too. 

 Also this past month, Levi had hives on his face and red itchy eyes after a cashew butter exposure. We had him tested for nut allergies and he tested positive for tree nuts and peanuts. We are going back in April for a second opinion to another immunologist to learn more. In the meantime we are packing benadryl and EpiPens :( 

 Overall he is just a typical baby! So thankful for that!!!
