Cousins graduating

Over the past few weeks, we have made trips north to see two cousins graduate from high school. Becca graduated from Milledgeville and Kyle graduated from Stockton.

During these trips, the boys also enjoyed time visiting grandparents, playing outside, doing cow chores, and helping with some projects.

Graduating to Kindergarten

Andrew completed his year at Spectrum. Ms. Regina and Ms. K. were great teachers and he had so man adventures from bug observing to making smoothies and even yoga!

They celebrated the end of their year with a Super Hero party.

Levi Todd is 2!

Levi turned 2 on Wednesday! By Thursday he was answering the question about how old he was, "Two", while he held up his whole hand! He will also answer that his name is "Levi Todd".

He is catching up a bit on the growth charts. At 27 lbs. 2 oz., he is 39th percentile for weight. His height of 2 ft., 9.5 inches, puts him in the 26th percentile.

Here are a few highlights of Levi's habit, likes, and characteristics at age 2.

• He enjoys cleaning. Receiving a toy broom, mop and dustpan were HUGE highlights for him. He is busy "cleaning" each day. 
• OUTSIDE is his favorite place to be. Activities include bubbles, playing ball and SLIDE! 
• Some of his favorite books are The Eye Book, Mr. Brown Can Moo, Can You; and Goodnight Moon.
• Elmo and Mickey Mouse are his favorite characters. 
• Stickers are another favorite. He even enjoys sticking them on the walls of our house. 
• He is often heard yelling at his brothers, in the same tone as Mom and Dad. 
• At night, he likes to have his "Oo Ah Ah" stuffed monkey from Costa Rica and his nuk.

We celebrated Levi's second birthday in a few waves. The first was at Starved Rock with the Todd family. Then, we have pizza and cake at home on his birthday. The Schnitzler family celebrated both Karl and Levi's birthdays with cake after Kyle's graduation.
