cory: what summer it's been so far! mostly work, grocery shopping, church and random fun things. work, though-that's kind of been your life the last month because the DE's dropped off significantly in june. it's been rough for you, but luckily it's not a reflection of your performance, just the company's marketing. i'm proud of you for not letting it get to you, even though i can tell how stressed you get at the end of the month by how early you'll leave for work. you passed your license apprenticeship test! the one that they said you failed because you got a 74 instead of the passing grade of 75. and then two months later, when you were going over the test with the supervisor, you found two answers the marked wrong that were right...WOW. everyone is so mad about that, especially the tons of people who took the dumb test three times and failed every time.
work aside, you've been itching for a project now that life has settled down (meaning no trips or houseguests for the span of two months). it's just so insanely hot that it limits most activities, especially when you throw in a baby and his needs and schedule :) you bought a bird feeder and ask every day if i saw any birds (always no). and you actually think going to tj maxx with me to look at house stuff and baby clothes and bow ties is a treat! life sure has changed, but we're appreciating this slower pace for now. oh, let's talk about how sick you were last week with the chills and cold and a fever! you haven't been sick like that before, but it was fun to have you home for two days even if you were in much discomfort.
right now you love making levi laugh by squeezing his thighs and saying "chunky legs!" and rubbing your beard on him which he's still wary of. we now pretty much always have dr. pepper vanilla float in our refrigerator, much to my chagrin and your delight. you are much better at feeding levi than i am and you don't like changing his diaper anymore (rude!).
levi: my little songbird has turned into a screamer! you are definitely discovering the different nuances of your voice and it can be painful at times :) i absolutely love to watch you crawl because it's hilarious-you get on all fours and you use your arms to propel you. sometimes you go on all fours and rock back and forth, especially in the crib. you've got two teeth and i can't tell if your top one is coming in yet or if you're just being irritable :) one of your favorite things is to crawl over to sienna to take/touch her toys. she doesn't approve. this week you've started turning around in my arms constantly to look out at everything, which not gonna lie, can be pretty annoying! there's nothing more satisfying than giving your cheeks a big smooch-seriously, i dare anyone to contest this.
