stomach

Well, I guess Levi has turned into a stomach sleeper.  Kinda drives me nuts, but he's doing fine with it.  Last week I wrote that he was rolling from back to tummy and getting mad about it, now he's content with it and as much as I try to keep him on his back he always ends up on his tummy.  At the cottage on Saturday, when he was hanging out on the living room floor for a while, he rolled all the way over a few times, so now I know he really can do tummy to back, too.

Just the way he's always acted (even in the womb!) I don't think he's going to be slow to crawl/walk/run...  I've already got my hands full, this guy is supposed to go easy on me!  :)  He's quite the little stinker at diaper change time - always wiggling and pushing back with his heels.  He is super smiley and it's just the cutest thing - I especially love watching him smile at Caleb and Logan.  He totally watches them and gets a kick out of what they're doing.  Caleb is good at getting him to laugh.

Because I like to look back at this kind of info...Levi is currently eating 5x a day, and napping between every feeding.  Sometimes he doesn't nap much between the 11am and 2pm feedings or in the evening because of being out and about or whatever, but I don't think he's totally ready to drop those naps.  He started sucking on his bottom lip the other day - it's pretty cute, but maybe he's teething??  And, anything within arms reach goes in his mouth, watch out, he's pretty forceful about it!

Caleb and Logan are both sick right now.  :(  Try keeping two snotty, sneezy, coughing two-year-olds away from their baby brother!  I'm also working on teaching them they can't just wipe their nose on anything in the house - blankets, pillows, couch, chairs...  They each have a hankie and do decent at using it, just need to be reminded once in a while.

Saturday was our last cottage day of the year!  Hard to believe summer is over already.  Mike and I got to take Caleb and Logan out on kayaks, which they enjoy.  Logan did awesome swimming - I love seeing him enjoy it and do well at it.

Sunday Logan was too sick to go to church at all, so Mike stayed home with him in the morning while I went with Levi and Caleb, and then in the evening I stayed home with Logan and Levi while Mike took Caleb to church.  In the afternoon while Logan and Levi were napping I took Caleb to the park - Mike needed some peace and quiet to do some paperwork (food safety inspections coming up at work this week...).  It was fun, and a rare treat, to be with just one - hope I get a chance to take Logan out soon!

Yesterday was Labor Day and Mike didn't have to work.  I was able to take Levi and go run a few errands.  We borrowed one of my parent's vehicles so that Mike could still take the boys out for a bit, too - they went to Schreur's and walked around.  There was a fair bit of crankiness yesterday due to being sick - so thankful Mike was around to deal with it.  Now today he's back at work and it's rainy out, could be a long day...  :)
