Still ignoring the phone

I love the age of 3 and 4. They turn from babies into little people who talk and laugh and want to help with everything! Levi is a joy to have around. Even though his 'help' may not be all that helpful sometimes he makes everything more fun. I was cooking up a big pot of gumbo the other night and he was my helper. He really liked adding the spices to the pot. (I had him add them before I turned the burner on, just to be safe) In fact, he enjoyed it so much we ended up with extra spicy gumbo!

He also says the funniest things. Yesterday, in the car, he said 'Liar liar, pants for hire'. We all burst out laughing! He aslo explained to one of Katie's friends that he has a big, big, big brain and that Katie's feet smell like tartar sauce. Where does he get this stuff????

He is also still really cuddly and very affectionate. (That's my Disneyworld sunburned face!) Lately he has been all about Daddy, though. Daddy is IT, the MAN, Da Bomb! He loves to help Daddy, sit with Daddy, eat Daddy's dinner, etc etc. It is so cute! He watches out the front window every evening and leaps for joy when he sees his Daddy's truck. He refers to weekends as Daddy/Levi days. I don't mind at all. It makes me love my husband just that much more to watch him interact with Levi. The joy and pride he beams with make me so happy.

Levi talks about his new brother and sister all the time. He shows us how he is going to hold them and rock them, how he is going to teach them things, and what toys he wants to give them. He has a really generous spirit. He has personally picked out special toys for both Ahren and Peri Brynn (his and his sister's idea). We bought them and have them sitting in the closet waiting for them to come home. He shows them to people and explains what they are, but he doesn't beg to open them or play with them. He is a truly special little guy.
