Where has time gone?
My little Levi will be six weeks old tomorrow.
I thought I should post this before two months creeps up on me.
He is already doing things like smiling and sleeping 6-8 hours at night.
Way to go Levi!
We love you so much Levi. Although we are still missing your sister everyday, you have brought so much love and laughter to our house again. You are such an incredible blessing to us. Here are some things I want to remember about your first month:
You grew out of your newborn diapers the first week you were home. Β You are now in size 1.
You also grew out of your newborn clothes. You are a growing boy! You are wearing 0-3 month clothes and I don’t know how long you will last in those.
You are starting to like your baths. No more screaming!
I love when you stare at me with those big, deep blue eyes.Β
You are a spit up baby. Definitely not as bad as your sister, but my piles of laundry are multiplying.
You are starting to give us little half smiles. I think you will be smiling in no time.
You are still sleeping in your bassinet in our room. You wake up every 3-4 hours at night, but you are a good sleeper.
You have the hiccups ALL the time, just like when you were in mama’s tummy.
You are a true boy. Very noisy. You are definitely not a quiet baby and you are always grunting. I think you like to make your presence known.
At one month you are weighing in at 11 pounds 4 ounces. Obviously you are a good eater. You weren’t a big fan of getting stripped down to be weighed. You let the nurse know by peeing all over her. Β Oops!
I love you sweet baby boy.
Christina - Oh dear! I didn’t read about your situation until right now…it’s always alarming when someone comes along and informs that we are breaking some law! How nutty. So sorry…but it sounds like you got some good ideas from people.
Your little man is just so darling. They grow so, so fast. I hope tomorrow is a good day.

Diana - By gosh and by golly, he’s just soooooooo squeezably handsome! Such a good-lookin’ fella! Yep!
We know you’ll a-figure somethin’ out!
Praying for whatever your decision turns out to be!

Tibbetts Travels in Thailand - I came across your blog today as I was looking for the words, βCome to Jesusβ, a song that was played while a missionary familyβs premature daughter died at 4 months on January 22, 2010. I have been praying for them as they grieve. As I read your story of losing Cora, I wondered it might be of mutual benefit for you to be in contact with each other. Their blog is at http://rustylynette.blogspot.com/ May God continue to help both of your families through this tremendous loss. I enjoyed too the pictures of your precious baby Levi.
Take care,
Jennifer Tibbetts, a missionary in Chiang Mai

winchesterspeech - What adorable pictures of Levi. He is so precious. I can’t begin to imagine the loss you feel everyday for Cora, but I’m sure this little guy brings light into your lives everyday.
I loved your post about the cupcakes. What a fun and thoughtful way to thank the nurses and staff that took care of Cora. I’d love to know where you bought the containers to transport the cupcakes.
Blessings,
Donna
