February 13-14 - David's House

Today was a snow day so Levi and I were home all day. We were watching the weather carefully all day to make sure that we could safely make it to David's House tonight. Around 3:00 the roads were looking much clearer and when we had talked to David's House in the morning they had said it had stopped snowing there around 8am, so we assumed the roads would only get better as we headed west.

We headed out around 4:30 and the plan was just to go as slow as necessary to safely get there. We gave Levi a snack in the car and put his movie on and we set off on the road. The roads weren't that bad. About 25 minutes from David's House we ran into snow again, so that was a little hairy in places, but not awful. The worst part was really the fact that it was windy so the car was blowing all over the place and there was lots of snow across the roads from being blown.

We arrived at David's House around 6:45. We headed inside and got checked in. We were in the pig room. Levi was a little disappointed, he had hoped we would be in the space room. But once we got upstairs he settled right in and was trying out the bed.

 Then we headed downstairs to find some dinner. Shepard's pie had just been made! Yummy!!! Levi gobbled it down.

 Then he was wondering around the kitchen and saw another couple getting Popsicle's out. He convinced them to let him have one, wasn't a very hard convince he just asked nicely and smiled!! So he set and ate all of that.

 Then it was time to go play!!! Levi had a ton of fun downstairs playing with everything! From stamps, to blocks, to the slide, to food, to coloring, to everything he just kept playing!!

Levi's pretty picture!

 Before we knew it it was past bedtime. We headed upstairs for drink and snack before bed. He ate a cookie and made a friend with a little boy.

Then we were up for bed. We did our normal bedtime routine and then we started to leave the room. I headed next door to take a shower. Levi had a rough time with that. He kept telling Jay that the noise was loud and scary. Once my shower was done I went back in to the room to say good night to Levi again and then we headed out into the hallway to see if he would fall asleep. It took a long time but he finally did. Jay and I headed downstairs to relax and have some dessert!

Thankfully I didn't stay up late because it was a ROUGH night of sleep for Levi! He was awake over half the night! Up and Down he just couldn't settle. He spent time in my bed, we spent time on the floor, he spent some time in his own bed, it was just a rough night. Sadly this is not a first or even that uncommon lately, this little boy has decided that sleep is the devil! I really should buy stock in Mtn Dew! :)

I finally gave up the sleep battle around 6. Levi and I headed down to play in the playroom. Then we had some breakfast before heading upstairs to get ready to head to the hospital.

As we were leaving we got to see Jaye and Cathy! Levi always like that! :) Then we were on our way over to the hospital.

Thanks for everything as always David's House. We will see you again in 3 weeks!!
