Nearly six months?!

I never thought I'd be sentimental about such small things, but I am. I had to store away the swing and the bouncy seat tonight...he's so over something as boring as a little baby swing and he's too big and rowdy for the bouncy (when it starts creaking and clunking and the baby is trying to flip it over...time to put it away). But it made me sad!!!! He's already growing up too fast!!! *sniff*

I love this kid. He's all boy. I'm crazy about baby boys now. I want a whole passel of 'em. Well, maybe one or two more. He's constant energy and motion. He wants to stand and jump all. the. time. Put him in the exer-saucer and he nearly rattles it apart with his jumping. Pick him up and his feet are pumping in a perma-jump. Walk him in his stroller and his legs are STILL moving in and out in a jumping motion. In the car you can hear the rhythmic swoosh of his feet back and forth on the car seat. He's not a squealer, screecher, or anything like that. Just a quietly cackling (his laugh is more of a a chortle or cackle) little jumper.

Six months in a few weeks!!! My oh my oh my...

Thank you Jenny for your thoughtfulness. Love the pictures and the blog. It does not seem possible that it has been almost 6 months since Levi's birth. It is totally amazing the amount of growth a baby makes in such a short time. A year ago Levi was just a blob in an untrasound, and now here he is, jumping around in his jumpy seat. And he is definitely all boy. I am looking foreward to seeing him in a month. Love to you all, I will miss the skype tomorrow, but we will talk during the week. Love, CA Mommy
