The back room is a great place for photos. The blue walls make a nice background, and because it is all out of focus, you can't see how horribly my drywall skills turned out.

Day 204 - Blue Room
The back room is a great place for photos. The blue walls make a nice background, and because it is all out of focus, you can't see how horribly my drywall skills turned out.
Day 203 - One Man Rubbermaid Band
Let the music-making begin!
Day 202 - Pacifier?
Huge difference between Leevi and Paige. Paige loved her pacifier. Leevi really has no desire for one at all. Every now and again it might help him stop crying, but very rarely.
Day 201 - Comfortable?
I'm just be happy that he isn't attempting to cover his face up with a blanket or mush his face directly into the mattress. Not a common occurrence.

Day 197 - First View
Very first shot of our new place in Wisconsin. Just a few weeks before we moved! It is hard to tell but there is a fireplace on the back right wall.
Day 196 - Library Time
Leevi is starting to get more adventurous and pull books and other items off the shelves. He really likes to grab books from the "Library" in our dining room, and boy can he make a mess.
Day 195 - Training Room Time
Spending some quality time at work with Mom at the training room.
Day 194 - Time to Play
All bundled up and ready to go. I couldn't decide if I liked it better in color, or in Black & White. I am leaning towards Black & White, which, I am sure, means that almost everyone else will prefer color.
Day 193 - Family
We made a stop over to Morgan and Max's house. Leevi is certainly starting to interact with his cousins more. Very cool to watch.
Day 192 - Extreme Close-up!
Hard to believe that Wayne's World is 24 years old. Sad.
Day 191 - The Amazing ______!
He clearly is quite fascinated by something. What that things is, however, I have no idea.
Day 190 - Not Gonna Happen
Then again, even strapping them in and bribing them with food doesn't always work either.
Day 189 - Good Smile.
Getting a smile on camera is not always an easy task. It becomes much easier if you strap em down...and bribe them with food.
Day 188 - Magic Ball
Leevi loves anything remotely shaped like a ball. Including balloons. Especially balloons that have lights inside of them, which causes the balloons to glow. Paige certainly likes them as well.
Day 187 - Bundle On Up
Yes, we are the parents who send their kid to daycare with a broken zipper on his snowsuit...in Minnesota...in February. However, we do in fact have a solid defense. He has already far outgrown anything we would have anticipated him wearing, and when we tried to go to the store to find a suitable replacement, it was as if every retailer in the state decided they were fed up with Winter and had moved on. What can you do? At least he isn't too mobile, so the fact that his snowsuit only Velcros shut isn't that big of a deal (other than being embarrassing...)
Day 186 - A Rare Sleep
Pretty rare for Leevi to fall asleep anywhere other than in Valerie's arms, his car seat or his crib. He is a much lighter sleeper than Paige, and will stir at the smallest of sounds. Note the blanket he is wrapped up in. This was Valerie's receiving blanket when she was born. Still going strong!
Day 185 - Floating Blanket
Great shot of Leevi, bad photographer placing a giant red blanket behind the subject's head. Leevi wins out.
Day 184 - Sleeping, Again.
A lot of long days lately. We are in the middle of transitioning to on the move to Milwaukee. I've been back and forth a lot, and some times you just have to squeeze in the shot at the last minute. At least it is quite comforting to watch your baby sleep. Oops.
Day 183 - Blanket Hoard
Leevi, and babies in general, sure seem to have a whole lot of different blankets.
Day 182 - Hide
Leevi likes to cover up his mouth with his blanket when he is sleeping. Very scary, and makes me worried. I will often uncover his face, but he will pull it right back up a few minutes later. At least we know now that he is strong enough to move himself around and pull down the blanket if necessary.

Day 181 - Continuing fun
Another easy place to get some photos. Paige loved the mega-saucer too, so it isn't that surprising.
Coincidence? Paige Day 183:
Day 180 - Late Light
Yes, I realize this is three days in a row in his high chair. Its just easier to actually get a good shot when he is strapped in!
Day 179 - Solids
Feeding a baby is not always an easy thing to do. Quite the moving target.
Day 178 - Cheese.
Happy baby time. For the most part, Leevi is a pretty darn happy baby.
Day 177 - Lineman
Just give it a month or two. This kid is growing like crazy. You might have noticed the repeating pattern of clothing on Leevi. That is because at 6 months he was already wearing 12-18 month clothes...Caught us by a bit of a surprise, so we didn't have too many options for him. What are you going to do? Also, i'm thinking he will be a defensive lineman before a quarterback someday, so the shirt is a little misleading.
Day 176 - Sophie
Squeak Squeak Squeak. Not sure about this whole Sophie thing. Seems more like a dog's toy that one for a kid.
Day 175 - I still see you.
He is definitely developing more sense of awareness of what is around him.

Day 174 - Open Up!
Paige decided she needed to feed Leevi. She actually did a pretty good job of getting it in his mouth. Most of it anyway.
Bonus Photo:
Lots of tears lately.
Day 172 - Wing Man
We made a quick trip in to BW3 for some wings. Leevi wasn't as impressed with his hat as we were. Sour grapes I guess.
Day 170 - Staring Contest
I'm pretty sure every baby on earth masters this look by this stage.
Paige on Day 180:
Day 169 - Bath Time
Leevi likes a good bath, but not nearly as much as his sister. Oddly enough, he doesn't really enjoy warm water.
Day 167 - and UP!
Leevi is making progress on pushing himself up off of the ground.
