Hello everyone! Sorry I missed the monthly update last month! I didn't even realize it! Liam is already 8 months! We can't believe how much he's growing and changing! He is motoring all over the place! He's quite a handful to keep up with now. Not only is he crawling everywhere, he's been pulling up too! He will pull up on ANYTHING! We're really having to watch him. He's even starting to cruise a little on the couch and end table. I really wasn't prepared for him to start all of this, and I have to admit, I've thought of putting him on his rump a few times to slow him down! He's just growing up too fast for me! He is truly so adorable though, he is fascinated with the world around him, and it's so fun to watch him learn new things. I think that's why he weaned himself, he was just too busy for all of that! He still doesn't have any teeth, but he LOVES his baby food, and he will eat anything we put in front of him! He's packing on the pounds, his last weight was 20 lbs. 3 oz. and he's 27.5 inches long. He's getting to be quite a load to heft around!
I get so many comments when we're out and about about him being such a happy baby. He truly is so happy all the time, and he loves to be out flirting with everyone. It's like he knows the exact moment to bring out the dimples! He has all those old ladies at Wal-Mart melting into puddles! He loves to give his mommy and daddy sweet slobbery smooches, and I have to say, it makes my day every time! He also LOVES his big brother! Fischer walks into the room and he just bursts into laughter! It is so cute to watch them "talk" to each other. Liam is really babbling a lot, mostly "DaDaDaDaDa", which has put Matthew over the moon! I'm working on "MaMa" everyday, but I don't seem to be making any progress! I guess the smooches will have to do for now!
I know I've been behind on the pictures, so I'll try to catch up here!
Just chillin'

This is the first time he pulled up. He looks a little confused. We had to lower his mattress TWICE that night!
Now, he thinks it's really cool, he can watch the door until we come get him!

He also thinks his crib is delicious!
I found you brother!
Holding my own bottle (but only when I want to!)
Trying out the sippy cup!
Too cute!
He thinks his car is delicious also!
Like I said, he'll pull up anywhere, but this is one of his favorite places. He loves looking out this window, especially if Daddy or Fischer are outside!
Pulling up!
Finally! The chair and the remote all to myself!
Happy baby!
Mommy's favorite smooches!
Also, here is a link to our 6 month "Mommy and Me" pictures. My friend David Trimmier took them , and I think he did a great job!
We hope you're all as happy as we are! We want to take a trip up to Birmingham soon to see everyone! Until then, we'll keep sharing here! Love you all!
