Liam finally got to go to his 6 month doctor appointment on Friday. The appointment got pushed back twice!! First Liam got a little stomach virus at the beginning of March so he could not get his vaccines until he was better. Then the Dr was going out of town for two weeks, so even though Liam will be 7 months on Thursday we made it!!! He checked out PERFECT! Like always the doctor was amazed at how tall he was! 28.5 inches (91%). He weighed in at 18lbs 12oz (54%), and his head was 45.5cm (85%). Dr Adams was very happy with his progress both in growth and developmentally!! It is awesome to hear from the doctor that WE are doing such a great job!!
Next big milestone for Liam will be his uretal surgery. For anyone that didn't know, Liam was born with Hypospadias. This is where the urethra forms on the bottom side of his penis and not in the middle. This can become an issue as he gets older, so the doctors like to take care of it between 6-12 months. I will be calling the Pediatric Urologist tomorrow to schedule a consult. Unfortunately this will mean Liam has to go under general anesthesia for surgery. I am nervous, but I have peace knowing that God will keep him safe and healthy throughout the entire procedure and recovery. I will keep you updated when the surgery will be.
We miss you all and hope to see you soon!
Here are a few pictures that I took the last few weeks!!
Getting closer and closer to crawling. Liam is scooting backwards and pushing forwards off of his legs....now he just has to figure out the arms and we will be chasing him everywhere!! Uh OH

Spring Is Here...
Finally nice weather has arrived!!! So, with Cory having a day off we took the opportunity to take Liam to the park. We went last evening with the dogs for a walk and since it was so nice we decided to spend today at the park again!! We packed a picnic basket and headed out for a day in the sun!! After lunch, Cory fished with not much luck. He caught one little bass and had a few other bites, but he had fun!! Liam and I walked around for awhile and watched the other kids feed the ducks and geese. Then we lounged on the blanket in the sun for awhile. Liam took a quick nap and then it was off to the playground! Liam had a lot of fun on the swing, but by the time Cory took him down the slide, Liam decided that it was time to go home for a real nap!!

It is so completely hard to believe that our BABY is 6 months old today!! People don't lie when they say it goes by WAY to FAST!! We have be so blessed with such a wonderful son and can't wait for the next 6 months to watch him grow. He makes us smile each and every day with his faces, sounds, and newly learned moves!! These are just a few pictures I took of him on our couch today!!
