Levi's ONE


(These pictures uploaded backwards...) Levi turned ONE on May 13. Most, actually, all of the celebrations were Saturday the 10th. He even opened all his family presents that same day instead of his birthday. We had so much fun at the party. It was for both him and Addilyn. The whole morning we were worried it was going to rain which would have been a huge bummer since all our plans were for outside. 

The party was very similar to Addilyn's 1st birthday party. We ate in our driveway and played in the backyard. We had the sprinkler, water balloon games, and a parachute to play with. Everyone brought side dishes and we had the grill going and otter pops with cupcakes for dessert. It was ridiculously humid- but it didn't rain!! The sun came out and everything.

Addilyn knew exactly what to do. She was shushing everyone so that we could sing Happy Birthday to her. Can you see the smile on her face?? She blew the candles out like a professional. 


Levi inhaled his cupcake. Addilyn wasn't even half done when he was finished. I think he enjoyed it!



I am so proud of these cupcakes. I finally got the frosting right and they even frosted beautifully. They were delicious!

Some cute things:
-Levi eats ALL the time. And he's mad if you're not feeding him and you are eating. Like, scream at you until you feed him mad.
-He dances by leaning his upper body side to side
-If you catch him looking at you and you smile, he throws you a huge grin and coyly looks away
-Levi can go up and down the stairs like a boss. But he still is figuring out how to turn around before going down so he's starting feet first rather than head....
-He gets super hot when he sleeps
-Levi cuddles. I mean lean into you and cuddle type cuddles. I LOVE it.
-He knows when his sister is gone and goes to town doing things she doesn't like him doing

Others
- He naps 30 minutes in the morning and ranges 1-2 hours with some help in the afternoon
- Yesterday was his last time nursing in the morning which was the last thing to ween him from
- Did I mention he loves to eat?
- He poops seriously all the time. I don't know how he gains weight with how much he poops.

Lexi was 30 & 21.5 so that means Levi is officially bigger, since when was that possible? But her percentages were higher so something is off! They lie with those. Any way I LOVE LOVE LOVE your 1 year illustration. Looks great! And same with those cupcakes. Wish I could have had one =X
