Before you read on, please know that these things change everyday, as Liam Changes everyday. Being a new mom, I am amazed at the discoveries and abilities that take place in just 24 hours, this little miracle never ceases to amaze.... I also want to say that I am grateful for everything this little man does, but these few things in particular lift my soul!
1. The way Liam will always grab my hand when I hold out mine to him, we will walk hand in hand, wherever I lead him.
2. The way he always cuddles on my shoulder when I pick him up.
3. The way Liam cries for me if I have to leave, it hurts, but it is pure, raw, need for mommy : )
4. The way Liam goes running to the garage door when he hears the handle, this makes me melt- I love the bond my son has with his father.
5. The way Liam feeds Chloe when he is in his high chair. He has recently become a fussy eater - very unexpected, but the funnier part is that he thinks we don't know he does it!
6. Liam LOVES balloons. We still have 3 left from his birthday party, even one that talks!DISCLAIMER: Parents- please don't ever leave your child alone with ANY object that has a string, or anything that might be a choking hazard, LOL.
7. Liam LOVES baths. In fact, he tries to drink the bath water sometimes! I can't wait to sign him up for swimming class!
8. Liam discovers something new everyday. Today, he discovered my eyelashes....that one hurt.
9. Liam is starting to LOVE his books. I even created him a "book nook."
10. NO. MORE. FORMULA. and I Don't miss it for a second...we might all be drinking whole milk for a minute, but at least it's a ton cheaper : )
11. I am very hopeful that sometime soon my 23 lb. miracle will be able to CLIMB out of his car seat! He is getting heavy!
12. Liam is starting to cuddle with stuffed animals, and he loves his big brown teddy...too cute!
13. Last night, little man pulled a toy out of his toy chest....one of the little pull-a-long puppies with a string. Liam had never played with this toy before, but a few weeks ago after his birthday party we had a bunch of little kids here playing with this toy...and he must have been paying attention. Liam pulled the toy puppy around the house for about 20 minutes last night. If you would have seen this, you would understand why it makes me so happy!
14. We can play, "if your happy and you know it clap your hands" and "this little piggy!" This age is absolutely my favorite so far!
15. When I go into Liam's room in the morning, it takes him about 5 minutes of rolling around until he is ready to wake up (he takes after his momma) but then he pops up with a huge smile on his face!
16. Liam and our boxer Chloe are BEST friends! When Liam cries, Chloe sits faithfully somewhere near him until he comes down ....Chloe has become MUCH more protective in the last few months, she would do anything for our little man, despite the rough start the first night we brought Liam home....
17. We have LOTS of Lego's, which sat untouched for quite awhile....but now Liam Loves playing with Lego's!
18. Liam's great grandmother had a friend knit Liam a PSU quilt, and sometime soon we can pull this out of the closet and he can use it!
19. Liam loves to play "ball" now....he will throw the ball and laugh when you give it back!
20. Liam takes after his momma, he LOVES cheese!
21. Today, when I picked Liam up from daycare...I went to get his jacket off the rack and Liam held out his arm to help me! Yes, I know....but its the LITTLE THINGS!
22. Whenever I go to Liam's daycare, all I hear is how much they love our little man, how great he is with other kids, how much the other kids love him, and how "cute" he is!
23. I love that I can drop Liam off at kids club at LA Fitness, and he instantly makes 2 girlfriends, he will wave bye bye to me and go off and play well with friends!
24. Liam tries to help momma brush his hair and teeth, and put his shoes and socks on....he also is learning quickly to eat with utensils....although this skill has been a bit messy!
#25. More than anything, (I know every momma has a miracle) I LOVE THAT I HAVE A MIRACLE BABY, AND I GET TO BRAG ABOUT HIM EVERYDAY!!!!!!! <3
