Liam is changing in leaps and bounds lately. He is getting really good balancing and he's taking more and more steps everyday. A few weeks ago he went through a faze where he was scared to take a bath. He would be excited to get in, but once he was in, he got scared and cried. We worked with him, being really quiet and gentle, and thankfully he is OK now, and even likes to splash the water like crazy.
Liam had a really fun Halloween. We went to Pumpkin Land to pick out some pumpkins, and we got some cute pictures of him with the BIG pumpkins. We also went to the zoo the Saturday before Halloween. He wore a tiger costume that Grandma P made that Mike wore when he was a kid. He was really cute in the costume. On Halloween we carved our pumpkins, and handed out candy to the trick-or-treater's. Liam's cousin Baloo, who was dressed as a bear, stopped in for a visit, and we got some cute pictures of them together.
Liam really loves food, and especially loves the food we eat. Some of the new foods he's tried lately is our 'Lemon and Caper Pasta' meal, a Moroccan stew, guacamole, and mango salsa. We are hopeful that this is a good sign that he won't be a picky eater later on.
In the morning when we are getting ready for work, he loves to watch 'Elmo's World' and 'Word World'. He squeals when he sees Elmo on TV, and also when we let him play with Tickle Me Elmo. It is sooo cute! His favorite sound lately has been 'Da Da'. And it seems he tries to say 'Dog' when he sees a dog. It's crazy to think that our little 6lb. 6 oz. bundle we took home almost a year ago is a soon to be a talking and walking little boy!
