Reading is fun!

Liam had his first library visit the other day. He loved it. We walked around and explored all the books. He loved sitting in the rocking chair with his books. We checked out 4 books and he was so attached to his new books that he did not want to give the up for check out. He starts reading them first thing in the morning. He will sit and flip through them like a little reader. He is very much in love with the touch and feel books. We do need to find a way to separate the library books from the regular books. I am very glad the he loves the books so much. Reading is very important to our family. Strong reading skills are a much for the future.

On our way home from the library! He had to keep this book to read in the car! 


He loves the dinosaur touch and feel book! 


Reading with Daddy before bed!

Butterfly Garden

For Lachlan's first birthday, Liam and I were invited to the zoo with the boys. Liam's and Lachlan's favorite part of the day was the butterfly garden. This is large due to that they got to get out of the stroller and run around. Liam loved chasing the butterflies! He would run up one side of the garden and then up the other side. He would bang on the butterfly display and babble up a storm. It was wonderful to see him really enjoying himself and playing!

Hi! Mom! I am busy chasing butterflies! 


Running or Flying!

While mommy is away.......

I went on a girls weekend to the beach. So Chris was on his own with Liam for 3 days! I know that they were taking care of each other. On Saturday, Chris started the day off with MacDonald's! He took Liam to play at the MacDonald's play area. Chris said he had a great time. He loved playing in the tunnels and climbing up and down the slide.

Liam in the slide! 


All smiles and laughs!!!


I love this picture! 


Playing intently!!

Flying the plane......

We took a late flight our of Atlanta, hoping that Liam would sleep. That did not happen. Liam was a big hit on the airplane. The flight attendants loved playing with him. Within 10 minutes of being on the plane, Liam was in the arms of his favorite flight attendant. He didn't even cry when she asked to hold him. He put his are us to her before she even finished the sentence. I was shocked since he is not a fan of people he doesn't know. He just much love blondes or know that there we lots of buttons in the cockpit! She took Liam to see the cockpit and he got to talk on the over head mic. He loved the cockpit. He was very overwhelmed with all the buttons that he could push. It was very cute. However, he did not sleep on the plane. Liam didn't get to bed until after we lated in San Antonio, at 1030pm! He was so tired and cranky but did well!

Liam in the cockpit! He wanted to push all the buttons! 


Driving the plane and loving it! 


Talking on the over head mic! The only time he was speechless! 

Alabama Part 5 - Water Park

After Liam had such a great time with the splash park, we decided to make a day trip to the water park. This was again a great day with Liam. He had a great time with the water. There was a see saw that shot water. Liam loved it! He did not want to get off it. When he did finally get of the see saw he walked right back over to it. There was a great love of the see saw. We did have our first water scare. He fell face first into the water. He recovered very quickly after I snatched him him. After a few seconds he was ready for the water again. After a quick snack, we were ready for more water play! Liam loved the water park. He played so hard that he ate 5 chicken nuggets and many fries from Chick-fil-A!

Liam playing on the see saw! He loved shooting water at Tyler.

Alabama Part 5 - Splash Park

One of our days in Alabama, we decided to go to the splash park. Liam was a little put off at first but once he got into the groove of things he was all about it. Liam loved splashing in the water. He enjoyed running and playing in the water. It was very cute to see him playing. He was running through al the water. He loved the water slide. He even tried to climb up the slide. It was funny, since there was water coming down the slide he did not have the same effect as the slide at home. Liam enjoyed al the time outside!  He is growing up so quickly. I can't believe he is a toddler.

We had a great time in Alabama. Liam loved all the new toys that were there. Tyler was good about sharing his toys. Liam loved all the then since they were new to him. It was fun to watch him explore new places and things. We had a great time playing and spending time with the Glenns!
Liam and Daddy playing the drums. He really enjoyed making some music!



Jamming out on the drums! 



Liam loved the Lego wagon. He would push and pull the wagon and then add some blocks. 



When he was done filling the wagon, he would dump them out and fill it back up!
