Busy Boy

Liam has been keeping us very busy lately. He is always on the move and I am sure he will be walking soon. He actually can walk with a walker toy without any help from us!! He has figured out how to get back down from standing, so the screaming has minimized... a little!! We have noticed that the bumps, bruises, and scrapes have increased!! He is so curious and such a daredevil that I seem to be always saying "NO SIR" this seems to work better than just "NO". My sister told me to try this!! Thanks sis!

He is obsessed with anything he can open and close (ie doors, books, cabinets, etc.) Locks are something on my list of things to buy today at the store!! He has also learned how to drink out of a sippy cup really well, now that I got him one that doesn't drowned him!! Haha whoops!

Last time I posted that Liam had three new teeth...well make that four! So he has a total of 6 teeth and is working on numbers 7 and 8!! We have lots of fun things coming up in the next few weeks like the Cardinals game with PawPaw and Gail, and Andrea and Mari, and Grandpa and Grandma Quirk coming to visit!! We will keep you updated on this Busy Boy!!



"Look at my new super cool swing that daddy put up for me!! I love to go really high!!"

Best Buddies! Liam follows Truman around EVERYWHERE!! Truman is really good with him and has learned to put up with his new tag-a-long friend!!


Peekaboo!! Liam and his cousin Brooklyn having fun at the wedding! Nana Amy and Steve got married on Saturday May 16th. So, we traveled back for the weekend. We had a good time and are happy for the newlyweds. Hope you had fun in Florida!!

My First Mother's Day

This past weekend we traveled back to Gower for the weekend. We had Liam dedicated to the Lord on Sunday and celebrated Mother's Day with our families. It was a great time and we always enjoy showing off our beautiful son!!

Liam was fussy on the trip home (thanks to three new teeth) so I sat in the back with him. One of the few things that made him happy was holding mommy's soda bottle!!

Sunday May 10th. My very first Mother's Day. I am so very proud to have Liam as my son!! Cory and Liam gave me a gift card to get a manicure and a pedicure and a very nice card! Thanks Boys!

Our Trip to Colorado

Liam and I went to Colorado to visit my sis and Mari last week. We flew in on Wednesday and came home on Sunday. We had a great time hiking, eating, swimming, shopping, and just hanging out together!! We can't wait for June when Mari and Andrea come to visit us in St Louis!!


























Standing is So FUN!!

Liam has learned how to stand and he does it very well!! The only downfall to his new accomplishment is the fact that he hasn't figured out how to sit back down without falling!! So, instead he stands and screams...every single time!!! And on the rare occassion he doesn't scream it is usually because he is too busy getting into something he shouldn't be!! What a cute little stinker!!
