Play

Just a few pictures of Levi at play. He's always doing new and funny things that I have to run and get my camera to capture. Nothing is as good as seeing it in person, but pictures are a grand invention. Although some of you will get to see it in person soon. Looks like Nathan REALLY is going to school in October, and Levi and I will be coming to St. Joseph for about 2 months. Long time. More details on that to come.
I just thought this picture was neat with it's crazy glowing blurriness going on. Levi playing with Pippin's leash and Papa's belt. Everything goes around his neck now. And he saunters around as if he's wearing royal robes or something.

He's gotten into clapping lately. He's done it randomly for a few months, of course, but lately he seems to do it at the right times. And he says, "yea" when he claps. He actually clapped a little during worship Sunday at church. That was cute.
And that's his goofy smile where he's also laughing. He jets his belly out like that and makes a silly little laughing noise. It's hard to describe, but it's funny. He's a little entertainer. I don't know where he would get that.


Reading time with Papa. Levi is very into books. He's always bringing us books to read to him, and he actually sits and pays attention to the pages now. His favorite books are Colors and Baby animals. Anyway, he's smiling in this picture because Nathan was using a crazy voice. That went on for a while; Nathan speaking all crazy and Levi laughing.

It's a pretty exhausting thing...reading. And just in case anyone notices...his feet are so dirty because he had just been playing in the back yard. His face too. Really, he gets baths.

Glowing red hair! I know,it's the lighting. But I'll see in person soon---YIPPEE! Isn't that funny that he struts around with his neck gear? Love the clapping pic and the belly laugh one. Well, and the reading ones! I love that he goes outside and gets dirty, that's what it's all about.

I see Nathan reads himself to sleep too. He and his brothers use to laught unmercyfully at me for that. Now turn around on
"Nato". I love it. Also we are all very excited about the idea of getting to see Levi and Anna, and maybe Nathan.

I love "saunters around as if he were wearing royal robes".
