Chuck E Cheese

As most of you know, Liam is a picky eater. We told him if he tried 5 new foods than he could go to Chuck E Cheese! He had been wanting to go. Well we had the sticker chart for his new foods for a few months. His last thing to try was pizza or a sandwich. It took forever. Finally one day it clicked. He ate a peanut butter sandwich! We were so happy! I know it sounds crazy but it was a hugh step for Liam. The next day for dinner we went to Chuck E Cheese! He loved it. We took our friends the Gibbins with there four kids. Liam thought it was wonderful to have his friends with him!

Liam is still eating great. He now eats all kinds of chicken (roasted, baked, homemade nuggets and grilled). He also eats lots of fruits, strawberries, apples, pears, watermelon, tangerines, and raisins. He even ate some pot roast the other night! He is getting much better. 

Seaworld

Chris had the day off so we ventured to Seaworld. I know it was hot and this pregnant lady was feeling it! We really wanted to get some shows in and some rides with Liam. It turned out to be a great day. We saw the dolphin show, Shamu, Liam rode his first really roller coaster and we feed the dolphins. Despite the heat Liam loved it. I didn't do so bad either. Chris kept me well hydrated and we rested as much as one could at Seaworld.

Mommy and Liam. It was the best he would let me get! 

Watching the dolphin show!

Shamu show! Liam loved this show. He danced to the show and still talks about it! 

Feeding the dolphins with Mommy! It was so sad to leave after feeding them that Liam cried. 

He loved the dolphins! 

A few random pictures

So we did the Annual dress like a cow day for our free Chick-fil-A meal! Yes we went all out. Chris had to work that night but don't you worry we still had a wonderful time. We were joined by the Gibbins and the Dyes. We took up 4 tables and had a great time with the kids.

Liam wanted to be a blue cow! 

We left Seamus with Liam one day and this is the picture I get!

I took Liam to the park one day and he climbed the huge rock! 

I swear he is part spiderman! 

Liam has shown a great love of sports these past few months. He loves soccer, basketball, football and baseball. He asks everyday to play one of these outside. 

Look at that jump shot! 

Liam loves to pee outside. He asks almost every morning to pee outside. It doesn't seem to bother me or our neighbors so we let him. I just think it is funny! 

This just makes me laugh! 

Swimming Turtle

We decided to get Liam some puddle jumpers for him to use in the pool. Liam loves to jump and try to swim, so we were hoping this would give him and us some more freedom......... And it did!!!! He will jump and play without us having to catch him. It really helps me out in the long run!

Turtle floating! 

Jumping in! 

No problems. 

RockPort and visiting Grandpa!

I know I am so far behind in my updating. I can't even imagine where the time goes. Thankfully I am slowly catching up before the baby comes.

Chris and I decided that we needed to take Liam and make a trip to see his dad in Rockport. We just didn't have many free weekends without him working. We really wanted to drive down on a Friday but that seemed to never work out. So we finally just gave in and left early Saturday morning and drove. Liam did great. Thank you DVD player. (I do have a feeling we will be needing to new one before our big road trip to Florida. Our battery life is only 2 hours.) Rockport is a 3 hour drive. Thanks to snack and movies we were golden! Liam was very excited to being seeing Grandpa and Grandma. He also was super excited for the beach!

There is a large bridge that we had to travel over to get to Rockport and Liam loved it. He thought it was great to go super high and drive over this bridge. It was very cute. 

Liam going over the bridge! 

We meet up with Grandpa and Grandma at their house and promptly went for some lunch at Whataburger. I was starving!  Liam was so happy to see them. He happily told them all about his Ironman and Hulk. He really has come out of his shell with people. After some much needed food, we followed Grandpa to the beach. He showed us were to park for free and were the free Aquarium was located. 

Grandma and Grandpa left to go get things ready for dinner. I love that Chris' dad is a Chef!!!! I am always guaranteed a great meal! Chris, Liam and I decided to take advantage of the free Aquarium before checking into our hotel. We had some time to kill before the Aquarium opened and we walked around the beach area and feed the birds. I know we were those people.

After the Aquarium, we went back to the hotel for some rest time. It was a bit difficult to rest when we were all in the same room. Liam did not want to sleep. So Chris took Liam for a drive while I rested. Before we went to dinner at Chris' dad's house, Liam and Chris went swimming. Liam loves the pool!!!! 

Jumping! 

Swimming! 

Big Jump! 

We had an amazing dinner with Chris' dad. Pete and his wife Cyndi.  Liam loved spending time with Grandpa and Grandma!

The Family! 

Chris woke up bright and early the next morning to go fishing with his dad! Liam and I took that time to get dressed and get donuts for everyone! After some donuts, Liam was ready to fish! The only fishing pole we had for him was pink but he didn't seem to mind.
