Levi is at a very cute age right now, he is full of opinions and demands along with loves and thoughtful comments. Here's just a small taste of Levi for you....
Church: We were sitting in sacrament a couple of weeks back, just as they had finished the sacrament song my Brother Dustin and his wife and son snuck in to the row of seats behind us. Levi was so excited to see Baby Ethan that he could hardly keep his arms folded and head bowed during the prayer. Sure enough as so as the prayer was done, he demands very loudly "I want that Baby on me, right now!" as he pointed to his lap. Of course everyone turned, and when baby Ethan did get to sit on his lap he told him "You a good baby, you big!".
Baby Ethan and Levi.. (Don't you love how little kids love babies!)
Potty Training: Well the time has come...and yes we have done the potty training thing. I'd have to say that Levi has done a great job...however he is so obsessed with washing his hands (he gets this from Dad) that he wont let me put his pants back on until his hand are washed! The other day when Levi was with Grandma she helped him go in and use the bathroom while we were at the Big Boys Basketball game. After the game Levi told me in the car that Grandma didn't know how to go the bathroom right...."Gam-ma, no do the potty right! I not go backward...my hands got no big bubbles!" I was dieing of laughter! (I hope this picture doesn't land me in jail..)
Like Dad: I just love how little boys want to grow up and be like their Dad's! Levi insists in riding his motorcycle like Dad. He has to have sunglasses on so he looks "tool"! Not to forget the sock on his hands for "glubs".... If I'm not watching I might end up with my toe ran over...it's no joke when the "tool Dude" is on his bike!
The Shoes: Levi has this very old pear of shoes that he loves. I have bought him a few new pairs, but he just wont let them go! For some reason he started calling them his Football Shoes (maybe because we would only put his shoes on when we were going to go to Dad's football games). Anyways, in order to get him to wear his other shoes I told him that the blue shoes were Basketball shoes...of course we now have Soccer shoes...(I'm running out of sports hear!)
The other day when Levi had first started potty training, he had an accident that went all the way down both legs and into his shoes...(the football shoes) I thought "Great, we get to throw the shoes away now!" No such luck! Levi found them in the trash and pulled them out, and put them in the washing machine! I tried again to throw them out, but he was keeping a close eye on them...I've had one more accident since, and still no luck on tossing the shoes! I even had Brock take them all the way out to the trash can's outside, but wouldn't you know it...Brennan saw them in the trash and carried them back in saying as he walked in the house "Mom, someone put Levi's Football shoes in the trash"....to late, Levi saw them! (Those dang football shoes!)
Other common things you'll see or hear from Levi are: "Tanks Mom, you da best!" when you've given him something. Or the other day when it was his turn to say the pray, I helped him with Dear, Heavenly Father, then when I started "Thank you"...he finished "For watching T.V.! Amen." (I told you he took after his father!
Brock informed me he had a real problem the other day as he came walking into the kitchen from the office....sure enough Levi was on his tummy on the floor holding onto Brock ankle as Brock was dragging him into the kitchen....I wouldn't of even known Levi was there other then he was laughing so hard!
This past week Brennan came running up stairs to tell me that Levi was trying to kill him....sure enough, here came Levi sunglasses on, socks on or should I say "Glubs" on, with his sword (which I thought I had put on the top shelf). As Levi was pointing to Brennan with his sword, he had a pillow from the coach in the other yelling "I get you bad guy! You goning to jail!"
So, like I said before....to know Levi is to Love Levi!
