These Boots Were Made for Walking




Levi loves shoes and boots and anything else that goes on your feet, including mom's pink slippers. He'll go to the shoe holder and take them out and bring them into the livingroom with his toys. He will try on everyone else's shoes. Today he managed to get on Bret's boots and my pink slipper. We weren't quite fast enough wtih the camera to get him in the pink slippers.

Today he was into singing "I love you" to us. Of course it wasn't quite that clear but it sure did melt your heart to hear it. I hope my little boy always keeps that sensitive side to him.

He loves music and is often humming. Rachel was singing a song that is on a musical book of his and he went to find the book right away.

Yesterday he found a little piece of paper on the floor and went to the cupboard under the sink, opened the door and put the piece of paper in the garbage. It is amazing how many things we say and do that he is trying to imitate!!
