Yesterday in the car Levi was humming in the backseat. When I asked him what he was humming, he said, "That wasn't me. That was God." hee hee
Totally need to catch up on my blogging. After Halloween...I promise!

A Morning with Levi
Today's Tiny Treasure: A quiet morning with Levi.
Levi never gets up before Eden. Never. So when I saw him coming down the stairs first the other morning, it was a happy surprise. We shared a nice little moment, before the rest of the house woke up. He drew me a picture with his tongue out for concentration...just like his granddaddy Simmons. Way too precious for words.
PS - That's a dolphin he's drawing. Just in case you can't tell.

Sweet Little Conversations
Today's Tiny Treasure: Conversations with my Kids!
I love to hear them tell me...
all about their day,
who they sat with on the bus,
the play they made up with friends at recess,
how that bounce house birthday party was such a blast,
that they love me 139 (which, by the way, is a really lot),
that their pet leopard is eating his dinner,
the steps of a project we're working on together,
100 times a day to "Watch, Mommy!",
their favorite butterfly,
their "night, night" prayers...
And all the other tiny conversations we had today that have already slipped my mind.
Note to self: Get the video camera out more and record these precious moments. They are flying by too quickly and I just know I'm going to miss those little voices when they are all grown up!

My Little Man is Five!
Once again I am behind on my birthday posts. It's like some little part of me goes into denial after the party is over. They can't really be growing up. Right?
I guess it's time for me to face the music. My little man is five.
Levi is the sweetest soul I know. Always thinking of others, always giving you that sideways smile that melts your heart and always in a happy mood. Sometimes I can't believe how lucky I am that I get to be his Mommy!
At five, Levi loves to...
Play baseball in the backyard.
Make up stories about his day.
Give hugs to his Leopard.
Laugh.
Eat Watermelon.
Swim.
Sing Justin Beiber with his sister.
Play with his puppy.
And kick a soccer ball.
He is all boy and is honestly the coolest boy I know.
We celebrated his family birthday at Gatti-town (a little piece of Heaven on earth if you are a 5-year old boy). And topped off the festivities with a Leopard Bowling party with his friends.
I hope he felt special and loved - since that is the way he has made me feel every day of the past five years! Mommy loves you Levi...all the way to Pluto and back.

Binge Blogging - Part Eight
Part Eight brings us up to date...
Today's Tiny Treasure: Playing the "Lava Jump" game with the kiddos before bed. Each level I would move my legs a little further apart and if they didn't make it all the way across they would fall into the "hot lava". The first time Levi stepped in the lava, he quickly informed me he had on his "hot-lava-proof shoes". Smart boy.

Binge Blogging - Part Seven
The kids went back to school today after a very fun and relaxing Spring Break. The house sure was quiet this morning. No one building a fort in the living room, camping out in the playroom, asking if I could turn on the xbox, make something to eat, get out the paints, make lemonade for the lemonade stand, etc. I felt a little lonely, to be perfectly honest.
We were able to squeeze in a quick getaway over Spring Break - joining the crowds at the Alamo, Riverwalk and San Antonio Zoo. The kids found the Alamo very interesting (much to my pleasant surprise), loved the boat ride on the Riverwalk, and got to watch "feeding time" for the Condors (and see lots of other fun things) at the zoo. The trip was a hit and the perfect way to round off the week.
