Liam is three years old today!

Today is Liam's birthday!



It's official. We have no more babies in the house. Our toddler has turned into a little boy. And an adorable one, at that! He's funny, smart, and the sweetest slice of angel cake imaginable. He and his sister are best friends, and they love to crawl around the floor pretending they're horses, cheetahs, and dogs. They play together constantly, rarely bickering and usually sharing genially.

Liam's favorite foods are macaroni and cheese, scrambled eggs (especially if he can stir them), grape jello, and anything sweet. Otherwise, he's a bit of a gourmand. He likes food that is actively good, not just good enough, which can make dinner a challenge. His favorite show is Thomas, his favorite color is orange, and his favorite animals are bats and elephants.

He is a big boy. He's about 35 pounds and 40 inches tall, and he's very physically active. He loves to jump around, and he rarely gets hurt. Or, I should say, he rarely cries when he gets banged up. He also loves music and dancing. If a show comes on with catchy theme music, he can't help but sit a little straighter, moving his shoulders and bobbing his head.

Happy birthday, Liam

Happy Birthday Liam!! Elliot would love him. Elliot's favorite color is orange (so much so that his room is painted orange) and when he was three Thomas was his favorite show too. Thomas trains are how we survived potty training. I read that Remington Steele, I mean James Bond is the new narrator for the Thomas shows.

Happy Birthday Liam! I was so impressed when I saw him recently how he just looked up at me with the biggest smile on his face while explaining something. You can just tell he dives into life 100%. Both your kids seem so sweet and like very interesting people too (like their ma!). Cupcakes to celebrate?
