Go, Go, Go baby Go!

We made up some fun songs for Liam tonight.  I think he enjoyed them :)

We're trying to upload some video of him talking from a while ago... Technical difficulties are delaying that, but we'll get it up here someday!

Unexpected Nap

It's 7 pm and your baby hasn't had a nap all day when he curls up in a
ball of cuteness and falls asleep on you. Bedtime is usually about 9
pm. What would *you* do?

A Quick Nap

Good thing he's so flexible! I wish I could sleep like this. Long
plane trips would be so much easier.

Starting to read

Liam is on the cusp of being able to read. I noticed him reading some words in a book several weeks ago, but I think he's starting to sound things out now.

We had a fun time at IKEA today looking at things to make our basement more fun. They have a pretty cool slide. Beautiful weather today, so we're off on a walk!

Here's the Sesame Street song that made B Liam's favorite letter of all time!

Opening Doors

We'll have to make sure he doesn't just walk out one day!

Car and driver

Don't worry, we were only doing 35.

No No, Lellow! Moo!

A few weeks ago, I asked Liam what he wanted to be for Halloween and showed him some costumes on line. He indicated that he wanted to be a cow by telling me Moo, Moo over and over. So, being his faithful servant, I ordered the costume. After it arrived, I realized that it was missing a few snaps and wasn't worth the money I paid. Thinking that surely a 19 month old would forget asking to be Moo Moo, I bought him a duck outfit. What a rookie mom mistake--of course he remembered. When I tried to put the duck outfit on him, he told me, "No, no, Lellow (yellow)!" He isn't exactly thrilled to put his cow costume on either, but when he sees it, he does indicate some like for it by telling me Moo and he agrees to wear it for pictures and minor trick or treating! Happy Halloween everyone.


Another successful line up of the babies in their costumes. This one was probably less successful than last year since now the kids can move.


A group of neighbors Liam went trick-or-treating with.


Liam is trying out a "post office box" costume at my work. Notice that even though this is a costume party, Liam would only wear his pajama tops.
