life lately

i want my money back. tennessee has been colder than utah this month! and last week, all of middle tennessee shut down for an ice storm. seriously, it wasn't that big of a deal-just a few inches of snow and ice. however, people aren't used to that here and there were over twenty deaths due to the weather last week! it was so bad, cory even got three days off of work which was so fun for levi and me :) 

luckily, the storm happened hours after erik flew home. speaking of which, my brother came and it was oh so much fun to have him here! mostly, we just ate bbq and went downtown nashville to the johnny cash museum and a few shops. however, it was so nice to have my big brother here to meet levi and hang out with me. erik is the nicest brother anyone could ask for.

cory and i have been adjusting to life with a baby and i think we've hit our rhythm. much, as i'd love for levi to be on a schedule, weekends and growth spurts don't really let us adhere to one. he's not sleeping through the night either, despite his hefty weight. however, he wakes up twice to feed and then goes right back to sleep, so i don't feel sleep deprived at all. he outgrew his bassinet by 7 weeks and is growing out of the little swaddle sacks he sleeps in...i'm eager to find out his stats at his 2 month appointment on wednesday. 

some of my favorite moments this month have been:
-having friends over for dinner/games/superbowl (i'm finally back in the swing of hosting/cooking and being a mama, too. just ignore me breast-feeding while playing trivia games).
-erik coming, of course!
-being motivated enough to work out (one week and counting..)
-opry mills mall with cory; we've learned to wear layers with levi, because he and cory are very hot. and cory will have to run into a store and buy a t-shirt and change into it in the fitting room if he is wearing levi. 
-laying in bed in the mornings (between 6-7 am) with cory and levi while he makes cute baby noises.

spring is coming and i can hardly wait because with it, comes lots of family! levi's blessing will be march 22nd and cory's family is coming out for that. in april we got to california and who knows beyond that?
