Happy First Birthday Liam!

 Liam baby turned 1 last week!  I can't believe how fast this past year has gone by.  The last few weeks have been filled with a lot of "a year ago today we were..."  I wouldn't change anything about this little guy.  He has been such a good and easy baby.  We love his energetic and very social personality.  Every where we go people are always stopping to talk to Liam and he acts like they are his best friend.  He is walking around with ease and having many animated conversations in a language we can't understand.  The last few weeks we have been singing "Happy Birthday" to him and he lights up and dances.  He LOVES dancing and is always bopping up and down to any sort of noise or rhythm.  We had a very enjoyable birthday party with family and friends and Liam was so spoiled!  It was a "mini" party with mini decorations, mini party hats, mini desserts, and mini invitations.  We did a cake smash but Liam couldn't quite figure out what to do (distracted from loving the attention with everyone watching to see what he would do.)  He poked at the cake a little, rubbed some frosting on his face, rubbed his face on the cake, and then sat there like....OK I'm done.  I can't wait to see more and more of how this little guy is going to grow up....but not to fast!  We love you not so "baby" Liam!

10 Months

Not going to lie I'm at a point where everything I do I think "I can't believe I have a son this old?"  I know he isn't old but he is just growing to fast that I'm in shock at how quick he is catching onto things.  It makes me scared to think we want our kids close together and we have to start talking about when we want another!  (WHAT?!)  Anyways....Liam is my world.  Even on the worst days this guy lifts my mood instantly.  When he is awake and ready to get out in the morning he lets out a quick and happy "ah.....ah.....ah....ah" and since he still hasn't said "mama" I'm starting to think my name is either yaya or ah.  If he wants to be picked up he will cling to my shirt and give me a look like "i'm not letting go, might as well pick me up".  He has 3 teeth on top and 4 on the bottom.  He is the quickest crawler and of course from the most recent post you will see that he just took his first steps.  He loves teasing Josh and I and loves when we say "I'm gonna get you" and he laugh/screams while wildly crawling away.  He is very into balls right now.....baseballs and basketballs and bouncy balls.  And throws them across the room then chases after them.  He has also taken an interest in the wall (Sorry Annie, Cody, Craig, and Lane).  He loves banging his head, hand, or whatever toy is in his hand against it.  If there is music playing he is shaking his hand and arms like crazy (Josh says he got Uncle Chambers rythm).  Oh and since the last time I blogged I went insane and bought an over sized teddy bear that basically completes the life of Liam, Josh, and Hendrix.  All of them have napped on it.  On to the pics....in no order at all...
