New Outfit

I would love to take the credit, but I didn't make this one. This awesome set from Wild Child Woolies came today. I put it on Liam and snapped a couple of picture right away. He was being so goofy, so the pictures are not very good. I wish I could get the wool interlock that I sew to cooperate with me, like Angela from Wild Child Woolies does. She has some serious talent.

On a side note, Liam learned to hold milk in his mouth and slowly let it dribble down his face and onto his brand new shirt. I have to put it in the wash already. He only wore it for a hour or so.

Liam's 18 Month Checkup

Liam had his 18 month checkup today. He'll be 18 months in 5 days. He is developing great. He has a bigger vocabulary than expected for his age. He says at least 45 words and is putting 2 and 3 word sentences together. He still signs about 60 words. We haven't really added any signs, although he recently made one up for guitar. He is right on target with everything else. He is 30.5 inches tall (5%) and 24 lbs 9 oz (25-50%).

He has also started potty learning. He tells me "the pee" and then he sits on the potty. He is very proud when he goes. I'm not sure how long he will be interested in this, since he is so young, but I'll go with it for now.

New Longies for Liam

I knit Liam a new pair of pants. I've been working on these off and on for about a month. I'm glad to finally be finished. Now I'm going to knit him a matching hat. I really love the colors in this yarn. I had my eye on it at the Local Yarn Shop for a while!

YMCA Here We Come

Liam, Bryan and I joined the YMCA yesterday. I'm going to my fitness center orientation and I'm dropping Liam off at the child watch program. I hope he doesn't freak out! I'm keeping my fingers crossed. Mama needs some exercise.

I haven't blogged in a while......

We've had lots going on, so I haven't had a chance to blog in a while. Here are some pictures from the end of October.

I knit Liam this hat using the Ky Baby Ear Cozy Pattern. I think it is soooo cute. It is knit in a really soft super wash 100% wool. He should stay nice and warm.




We had fun on Halloween. Liam was a bear. We went to a few houses, then he helped to pass out candy at Grandma and Grandpa's house. He was doing a great job until Batman showed up. He was so afraid of him. It turned him off to giving out candy. Before that he was putting candy in the kids' bags and saying "bye" as they left.


Liam also tried his first lollipop. We don't really let him have candy but he chewed the wrapper off of it, so I couldn't say no after all that work breaking into it.
