Feburary - Levi makes 7 months

This month, Darin was in Michigan more days in the month of Feburary, and I was home alone with Levi for the first time. I have to admit, I cried when Darin left, but it wasn't all that bad. He was only supposed to be gone for 11 days, but then had to head back for another week after being home for one week. The second trip Darin took, our fridge broke right before he left! So I was left with Levi and no working fridge. Luckily, we have our parents across the street, so we ate there for our meals.

Levi started scooting around the place this month. No crawling yet! He's also starting to eat things with his pincer grasp (puffs cereal and mum mums). 

Daddy's team got to the Super Bowl, but he was in Michigan during that time. This was our Ohana group kids playing while the game was going on. Levi was quite a spectacle doing his high screaming. He found his voice this month!

Uncle Royce and Aunty Amy came to visit at the end of February. It was nice to see them again. We haven't seen them since August, when Levi was just a little thing that grunted all the time. They went camping up in Kokee for a few days, and Royce got to show his townie friends his wilderness survival skills.

So, when we went to my grandparents house, we looked through some old photos and came across the one on the left of my mom. Similar cheek resemblance? Looks like Levi got a combination of daddy's cheeks as well as the Takayama side.

Levi and mommy were very happy to have daddy back home. So was he!
