Happy Labor Day! I hope everyone is taking advantage of the last day of summer at the beach or having maybe one last barbeque. Im using this day to catch up on some photos. I was gone for almost all of August for some good old Army training out of Fort McCoy, WI. Bad news – We didn’t celebrate Levi’s first birthday on August 5. Good news – We celebrated his birthday a week before and I have pictures!

It feels as if this past year has gone by so quick and Levi is growing up so fast. Before I left for training, Levi wasn’t walking. While Im gone, he takes his first steps and will soon be running after his older brother. Here are some pictures from Levi’s first birthday party. As you can tell, he is extremely loved by all his friends and family. Levi, I cant wait to watch you grow and explore new things with your older brother. I don’t know if your mom and I are ready, but we’re definitely excited for what’s to come!
