Oh Levi!

One of Levi's favorite things to do is pull himself up to our front door and look out. Joe just happened to be outside with the camera the first day he did it. Here are some of those pictures!














Baseball, swimming and 4th of July!

We have had a very busy summer so far and I apologize for not updating our blog regularly. Levi has been growing like crazy and has been crawling for about a month and a half. He is very fast! He also loves to pull himself up to things and is very proud of himself when he does.


Over the 4th of July we were very busy trying new things with Levi. Joe and I took him to the Kalona pool for the first time and he loved it. Mom and dad also have a little pool in the backyard that all 3 kids love! Levi also tried his first grilled hot dog, baked beans, watermellon and freeze pop! He loved it all!


As a family, we went to the Cedar Rapids Kernals game on July 3rd. Levi did very well for how hot it was and got his first taste of one of our favorite things....Baseball! He even got his picture with Grandpa and Mr. Shucks!

Family Pictures

We had some family pictures taken by one of my co-workers. Alli has spent several years as a travel nurse and decided to take some time off and take a few photography classes. Then she decided to head back home to Iowa and landed a job as a transport nurse for the U of I. She still does a few photography sessions for friends and family. We met her in a little park in North Liberty and she started snapping away. We are so excited and happy with the results and definitely appreciate the time Alli put in to make this time in our lives so memorable!


Newest thing for Levi: He has his first tooth!


Hope you enjoy the pictures!

Easter and 7 months

April was a busy month for the Fernau family. Levi is keeping us very busy. He has now learned to wave bye-bye and we often hear lots of Mama's and Dada's which we love! He is also figuring out how to get where he wants to go....not by crawling yet but lots of rolling and scooting backwards. We are sure the crawling is coming soon! Here are a few pictures of our Easter weekend. We spent the Saturday before Easter at Grandma and Grandpa Schrock's with cousins Tori and Kenna. Then Easter Sunday (the orange outfit) was spent going to church and again at Grandma and Grandpa Schrock's with the extended Leichty family. We all had a great time!

Our Babe Magnet and Daddy's Buckaroo!


Our little Babe Magnet!






Daddy's Buckaroo!



6 months old!

6 months old! Wow, we can't believe it! Time has gone so fast and so much has changed and we are loving it. There is always a new adventure with Levi and we look forward to many more adventures this summer. Levi has been busy playing with his many toys, learning to eat new foods, rolling all over, and learning to scoot around a little bit. He loves to be outside and discover new sights and sounds and he loves to take walks with mommy and daddy in the stroller. We are looking forward to the weather staying nice so we can enjoy it as a family.
