Christmas 2012

Merry Christmas 2012!  

I haven't posted in almost a year. SO much has happened this past year. Dan started school in February and has class every evening. He was only working part time for awhile but actually found an HVAC job and has been there full time for the past couple of months.  It's been rough without Daddy around but we enjoy our time together on the weekends. Soon it will all be over and we can have Daddy back!

I started a new job the very beginning of 2012 and have almost been here a year. We are very thankful for health insurance finally! I am also thankful to be working for a company that cares about it's employees. It's a nice, welcome change for sure!  Dan and I also celebrated out 1st wedding anniversary together this year!

Levi has grown so much. He has recently starting talking in full sentence and has a large vocabulary. It is super cute to hear him ask questions, tell us things, sing songs and communicate with us. He goes potty on the toilet whenever asked and even tells us sometimes when he needs to. He has learned how to count to 16 so far (with the occasional missing #4) and knows about 8 colors. He loves reading books and watching cartoons. He got a portable DVD player for Christmas 2011 and he loves watching movies on it. His favorite foods include pizza, macaroni and cheese, pasta, fruit and SNACKS. He has coined the name "snack boy" from my parents. Throughout the year, we visited Sesame Place, took a trip to the beach and even went for a helicopter ride. We had the pool set up this summer and he had a blast in it. He is also into basketball, football and baseball. He loves to play them and watch them on "the big TV" 

He really liked looking for pumpkins at Halloween and Christmas lights this Christmas.  He recently got very into Thomas the Train. We took him to visit Santa (he did great!) and a huge train set. He absolutely loved it. He is also very interested in vehicles. He loves firetrucks, cars and buses.  

Levi has been at the YMCA for just over a year now and does pretty well there. Hopefully he will be potty trained in the near future so that he can go swimming. 

Oh! Levi finally gave up his bottle at 25 months which we were very thankful for!
