Liam and Sparta.....again

Liam's love of Sparta is still great. Every morning and afternoon he and Cathy feed Sparta carrots. Liam calls Sparta,... Tata.  It is very cute. Liam really loves it when it is time to clean Sparta's cage because Sparta get to come out and play on his level. This last time Liam was all about helping with Sparta!

My favorite picture of these two

New Play Set

We are very lucky, my parents recently purchased Liam a new play set.  This was amazing since he was starting to out grow his little slide. We were very excited when the two huge boxes arrived in the mail. Chris had plans to put it all together. It was going to be a morning project but somethings need a little more time. Liam was a big help. He was outside before the boxes were even opened waiting for the slide to be ready.

Trying out the new slide!

New play set!

Loving the new slide

Playing in the house!!! We love to open and close the door!

Behind the ladder! 

We have been playing outside daily since the play set has arrived. It is great! Liam is all boy, so he loves it. It also wears him out. Nap time is going well, since he is so tired form playing outside! I can't say how grateful we are that we have my parents got this for him. He loves it!!! 

Dress like a Cow!!!

Chick-fil-A had their annual dress like a cow and get a free sandwich day. I took full advantage of this day. Liam was going to be my cow! I made him a very nice cow print shirt. This was also going to be his first Chick-fil-A experience. It turned out great. Liam loved his chicken and was a very cute cow. He even tolerated the giant cow at the store. I must say the Chick-fil-A was a great. They helped us with our food and brought place mats for the kids. They took our trash and really helped with the boys! Since it was Lauren and I we had a total of 4 boys! We really did enjoy the chicken and the play area with the boys!

Self Feeding

Liam has started to assert his independence. He likes to feed himself now and again. It is a slow process since he doesn't get much on the spoon but he is learning. Here is a cute video. I am sorry but there is no sound!

The boys

I just love this picture of all the boys! Liam loves his daddy and Uncle Pete!

The boys playing with the iPod Touch!!! 

More Pool Time

Thankfully, Liam has come a long way with the pool.  He enjoying more and more time outside and in the pool. He does love to play in the pool with Chris. I am very glad. I was afraid he might hate the pool. I am just very grateful that he loves the to play outside! Our pool is a little small for more than one person but Liam doesn't seem to mind. He really loves it when his daddy joins in. Liam loves his daddy and playing with him.

Liam and Chris playing in the pool

I will say I was not home at this time. Therefore Chris did not understand the importance for Liam to wear a t-shirt while outside. We have rectified the situation. It is very important that Liam not get burned. As a fair skinned child it is easy to do. Liam is now equipped with a swim shirt! 

Cool like daddy with sunglasses!

Liam loves to wear our sunglasses and I finally was able to get a picture! 

Exploring new foods

As most know Liam is not a fan of trying new foods. In fact he hates new foods. We have slowly introducing new foods. He loves bread. We have started a to like a few new foods over the past few weeks.

Liam and his first McDonald's chicken nugget

Liam loved the nuggets so much that we had to cut him off at 2. He had already eaten his dinner and he would have kept eaten. He was so happy to eat these nuggets. I guess it is true..... every child loves McDonald's! He will eat any kind of chicken nuggets now. I am very excited about this step. Next we are going to introduce veggie nuggets. 

Pete gave Liam his first real cookie, oatmeal raisin. Can we say love? He was so happy to have a cookie.  He ate almost all the cookie. 

Liam has also discovered peanut butter sandwiches.  He takes after his momma with the love of peanut butter. His first sandwich he ate all of it and then some. He loves sammies! I am very glad that we are moving on to new foods. Everyday brings new adventures for us!

Boys will be boys....

Liam is very much all boy! He loves to explore and get into everything. He is always finding new ways to get into things. The other morning, while I was picking up, Liam managed to make a new kind of mess for me to clean up. Liam know how to make me smile. 

What Mom? I am not doing anything!!

Here mom!

On a the same day, Liam discovered how handsome he is. He spent a good 30 minutes looking at himself in the mirror and giving himself kisses. It was very cute to see. I am glad he is taking after the Bradley side with his confidents. He is so cute!
