All the toys

While Sylvia was away for a few days, Levi got to play with everything.

Sitting in the cart is so exciting!!!

Pigs in a wagon

They are all napping, except the mama, nestled in small boxes and protected by blocks taped to the sides so they don't roll out. Therese, do you recognize the finger puppets you gave her?

Drawing and painting

Weekend

Good night, Sylvia

I was laying next to Sylvia tonight, waiting for her to fall asleep, when this happened:

Sylvia: Mommy?
Me: Yes?
S: I like you.
M: I like you too. You're pretty fantastic.
S: Thank you.
M: You know, Daddy and I talk about you all the time. We talk about how smart and funny and kind you are, and how much we love you.
S: (Silence, then -- snoring)

Happy birthday, Jimmy

We went to a kids' art space on Saturday and painted. I remember Jim being so pleased to hear that Sylvia likes to paint.

Notes on Levi

Well, he's six months old now - already! - and so happy and relaxed. In the past week I noticed that when I plop him down in a seated position, he can stay there! He only falls over ... slowwwwwwly ... if he's reaching to the side for a toy. Speaking of toys, he likes to bang or scrape hard toys on the floor or the table or a wall, over and over, enjoying the sound. You can offer him a spoonful of avocado but he prefers to feed himself, thank you very much, and will grab it out of your hand, turn it upside down and yank it toward his face. (Sometimes this ends in tears.) He loves, loves, loves his sister, who always makes him laugh. He is always so delighted when Paul comes home.

Last night, Levi was sitting in his exersaucer in the kitchen, and Paul was playing peekaboo with him around the doorway. Then Levi slowly ducked his head behind an exersaucer toy, and looked back up at Paul and grinned. He can play peekaboo too! I was so proud.
