And in with the new!

Happy New Year!!

I hope everyone had a happy and safe new year! We were very low key around here. Had a few friends come over, ate way too much Trader Joe's, and watched movies. We didn't even watch the ball drop, although we did watch the clock to appropriately say "Happy New Year." Once the day hit, we had lunch with Grandma, Pampa, four aunts, one uncle, and two cousins. Oh, and 2 boyfriends, can't forget them! It was loud and fun and delicious, much like many meals at Grandma's house. For dinner, we headed over to YaYa and FuzzFace's and were joined by Traveling Uncle Matt (yes, my brother is a Fraggle) and Aunt Nicki. Overall, it was a really nice start to what is going to be a great year!

Welcome to 2012!

Day 29 (1/29/11)

We introduced Li to a new toy today. A "workbench" set that includes a hammer! Fuzzface and Yaya picked it out for him before he was born. I figured with Li's newfound sitting skills, he'd be able to actually play with it. See for yourself how much he likes it:






He and I also had storytime this morning. Everyday I try to read at least one book to him; today's was "Where the Wild Things Are" by Maurice Sendak!

Day 14 (1/14/11)

We spent the evening at YaYa and Fuzzface's house and Liam had a blast! This kid just loves his grandparents!

Our little guy is still teething (nothing has popped out yet, but you can see it under the gums!) and he discovering all different things he can gnaw on to relieve the pain:

like large water bottles


or glass root beer bottles



Happy 22 weeks Liam!

Day 8 (1/8/11)


Yesterday was going to be a quiet day around here, but then we decided to be sociable. Our day started off waking up to half an inch of snow on ground. I wanted to take our daily picture out in the snow, but by the time I would have been ready it was already melted :( Instead, we spent our morning being lazy, watching movies and playing with Liam.


According M, Fuzz Face and YaYa (my mother), Li has found and sucked on his toes several times. I just had to take their word for it because I'd never seen it. Until today!


Liam and M were snuggling on the couch and I looked over and he had his foot in his mouth! It was so exciting (to me anyway)!



M's aunt was throwing a small get together that afternoon, so we figured we'd stop by and visit (this starts the sociable part of the day). It was a lot of fun, but we ended up leaving earlier then I would have liked. Our reason for leaving was to go and have dinner with Pampa, aka Liam's birthday buddy (Liam was born on Pampa's [M's grandfather] 81st birthday). Dinner was really nice, it was Pampa, Grandma, M's cousin Kacee who is visiting from the desert, Liam, M and myself. After dinner, we continued our sociable day.



Our last stop was at the house of one of M and my's favorite people. Linda and Barry. I don't know what it is about them, but I always feel so much better after visiting with them. They just have an amazing energy that they share with everyone! Aside from stopping by just to stay hi, we were there for their daughter Rhia to meet Liam. Rhia was one of my bridesmaids in our wedding, and she had yet to meet Liam. Until last night. And of course she's on her way back to school now and wont see him again until the summer, but at least she got to see him as a 'little' baby!
