If you see Levi you usually see him with his best friend Rupert. Rupert became a part of our family when Levi was about 5 months old. I don't really remember how (I've had way too many sleepless nights since then) but Matt says we let Levi choose what stuffed animal he could sleep with. Levi chose Rupert and they have been together ever since! Rupert has been with us everywhere. Seriously...EVERYWHERE!! Rupert has been to Wyoming, Montana, Arizona, Illinois, Oklahoma, Missouri, and many places here in Texas. If we ever lose Rupert I really don't know what we would do. I have looked online for a replacement bear that looks just like him but I think Rupert was a one and only bear. Rupert is the kind of friend that you want to have though. He has been with Levi through every sickness, and there has been a lot, every tear Levi has cried, and shared every laugh. Rupert might not have a nose anymore but it doesn't matter. I'm not sure how much longer Levi will be so attached to this bear but I love watching Levi with that silly bear.

This is the first picture I have of Levi with Rupert. Levi was 5 months old. Rupert still had a nose back then.

This is in August so Levi was 8 months here.

The chewing on Rupert's nose begins. This is in December 2008 so Levi is 1.

This was on our trip to Wyoming and Montana. Levi was 15 months.

Levi sleeping with his pal. He still has to sleep with that bear today! September 2009

Levi today with Rupert. Rupert's nose is long gone!!
