happy birthday liffey!

happy birthday to liam's "big sister" liffey. she is 7 yrs old today.

i'll write more about our fun weekend later. ate some not good food i think....

1 yr check up

after a few scheduling problems, liam finally made it to his 1 yr pediatrician appt. he is 21 lbs 6 oz and 29 1/2 inch long, putting him in the 25%ile for both height and weight. he is a bit of a runt, but then again, so am i. :) he was 50%ile for head circum., proving that he is a genious! ha.

he has been busy lately - we went to a flyball tournament the first weekend in june. we went to the baseball game on father's day. it was hotter than we could imagine, but liam didn't seem to mind at all. i did, however. :) we went to a big family reunion on bill's side of the family. it was fun to meet so much extended family and hear more family stories.

more plans coming up for the summer: more flyball, camping with friends and a week long camping trip with the 5 of us in the camper. looking forward to it!

new sitter

liam started at a new sitter this past week. he is around boy's close to his own age and LOVES it. he is doing things (like eating more big boy types of food) that he sees the other boys doing and playing with all sorts of fun toys. the new sitter just kept saying - he's so smart and so cute (well, let's just state the obvious here.) :)

i took it as a good sign when i went to pick him up the first day, and, when i walked in the door, he smiled at me and went right back to playing. i hope things continue to go well.
