A day at the pool....

 Can't beat pictures of little kids in goggles...

 This talented man was painting a mural!  Cute!

Freeze Dance, Noah, and Murder in the dark...


 Here we are with our silly song.  It is a freeze dance, found on the internet.  It wasn't my favorite one, which goes:  "Hop and hop and hop and hop and hop and hop and Stop!"  But it was a pretty good one. 



 Obviously freezing here:



Cory helped Levi with his lesson.  They used some vintage flannel board characters that depicted Noah's Ark.  (our church library was cleaning out all kinds of stuff, and I brought these home!) 
Levi had fun putting up all of the animals.
 When the floods came, we sang "The Wise Man built his house upon the Rock", because of the raining lyrics.   Fun times.
 And THEN we played murder in the dark....
 By the light of Nathan's color-changing alarm clock.  Spooky fun.  We played the "hand squeeze" way, because the winking way freaks Brinley out.  I was the first murderer, and went on a real spree right away.  After that, it was decreed that you have to wait for one person to die before killing another.
 Then we had these semi-okay sorta yummy treats that we probably won't make again.

Levi is three!

Little Boys of Three
Look tenderly on little boys of three,
Their softness is as fleeting as a flower.
The cheeks like petals such a little hour,
The deepest dimple theirs so transiently;
Even tomorrow softness may be hard.
The little cotton cushions on the knees
turned into bony knobs for climbing trees.
The fists so like a rose grow lean and scarred.
His full moon cheeks will narrow to a line,
the silken hair becomes a brush of bristle,
As Mother's little flower turns to thistle,
And there will linger not one little sign
To prove the cuddly cupid that was he.
Look tenderly on little boys of three.
 


Does a face get any more cherubic than this?  Not possible.  Oh how I love my little angel...



  Here he is with some sweets and treats from his Grandma Gay...
Showing me his many faces...






 Wearing the Birthday Cape!  At Grandma Sue's...
 Helping me make his cake... (he is always with me, so I couldn't really surprise him.  So I involved him and he loved it)
 Isn't that the sweetest profile ever?  I need to make a silhouette.


 Sister making crayon toppers for him...oooh she is so cute, too!
 I asked his sibs to each spend 1/2 hour with him, instead of buying him presents.  He felt really special.


 We had "circles" all day... pancakes, lunch meat, burned pizza,
 Bucket o' Salad (my latest and greatest health invention.... which I try to keep stocked....)

 And the Circle Cake he requested (easier than a dinosaur or train.. thank you, baby!)


 What a cute cowboy.



In many ways, this little guy has been my saving grace as I have had some rough days.  I treasure him.

Levi made a fun craft today!



 We had so much fun making a little manger for baby Jesus to sleep in.  To make one, you can go to  this link and click on December Printables.

Oh this little guy is so much fun!
