Our weekend

Friday morning, Levi and I went back to his school to drop off his paperwork.  We decided that Levi will begin attending school on January 5.  This trip, Levi was awake; so we stopped by his class.  His teachers were very sweet to him - trying to get him to smile, but it did take him a little while to do that.  At times, he can be very solemn around new people.

Friday night, I went on a date with my boys.  Although, Levi wasn't much of a dinner companion.  I guess he didn't care too much for the ambiance, deciding the back of his eye lids were more appealing.  We actually went back to the same restaurant - and then the bookstore - where we had gone the night before Levi was born.  We had a really fun time.

Saturday was our weekly Wal-Mart trip.  This trip was different for Levi though.  Usually when Kevin goes with us to Wally World, Levi gets to ride with his daddy in the Baby Bjourn.  Levi still rode in the Baby Bjourn, but he was finally able to be turned so that he is facing outward.  He LOVED it.  He reached for just about everything that came near to him - the fish in the fish tanks, toys, cereal boxes...  One time, Kevin came walking down an aisle toward me, while Levi was holding onto an Eeyore.  Another time, Levi was "driving" Kevin with this little dashboard like toy complete with wheel and gear shift.  He was so cute and very alert, watching everyone and everything.  While we were checking out, Kevin decided we needed to add some candy to a gift we had purchased, so he went in search of some Christmas candy.  Kevin and Levi were checking out at the 10 items or less lane, and I was looking for some change to speed up the process.  We looked back at Levi, and he was asleep!  There was NO way he could have been comfortable, but it didn't seem to bother him at all.  He did the same thing today, when Kevin and I were checking out at Target with a few Christmas presents!
