Fall in Portland

Liam has a thing for leaves. We hope the weather holds up some more for him to enjoy a nice big pile to jump in.

And even when he has a bad day, and puts Mom and Dad through the ringer, somehow his laughs makes everything all right again.

A Typical Sunday Morning in the Taylor House

I think this about sums it up quite nicely,

After Mom and Dad clean up all the 'fun' then we actually run around the house and play with toys.

From My Baby to A Little Boy

Today was Liam's first haircut! We went to a great place called LITTLE CLIPPERS, they only do children's hair. This place was awesome, the toys, the balloons, the distractions. Well Liam had no interest in sitting in a super cool VW Bug to get his haircut so that meant Mom's lap.

I think Sean summed up the experience the best when he said, "I didn't get any pictures of Liam smiling but I did get some of him not crying." It was not horrible but I don't think he much cared for it. The lollipop was a solution for about 5 minutes.



I was so preoccupied with Liam that it didn't hit me until it was all over, the tears came for me when I was paying. He no longer looks like my baby!!!



Introducing the new, I can't believe this is my BABY, Liam Taylor......

And if the pictures aren't enough, enjoy the video, it's like you were there.

Pumpkin Patch 08

The past weekend was awesome! Weather, events, friends, everything you can ask for. Saturday was the Pumpkin Patch with the Brislins.

Take a good look people because you are seeing the future Mrs. Liam Taylor, and man is she a smarty! She has the greatest Lion, Lizard and Fish you have every heard. Liam was very generous in his hugs and kisses for Ava...That's my boy!

Needless to say that Sean found the perfect pumpkin and was one happy boy himself

and Liam could not have been any cuter if he tried!

Grace Ellis

A BIG HELLO TO GRACE ELLIS!!! Thank you so much for reading our blog about Baby Liam, it makes it a lot of fun knowing people all over the country are reading it. Can you believe your Mom and I have known each other for 20 years!

Hunger Pangs

How do you know when your toddler is hungry? When he climbs into the refrigerator, pulls out a yogurt, puts it on his highchair and then attempts to climb into his highchair. That is your first clue.

The ankle is slowly getting better, the swelling is going down and the bruising is coming out, all signs of healing. Sean is out of town on business and my son Liam was a perfect angel last night. Perfect on the drive home, eating dinner, during bath time..the whole shabang. We have plans for the Pumpkin Patch on Saturday with friends, Annie McGinnis is having a 1 yr old birthday party on Sunday and then we have dinner plans with Tim and Julie and their son that evening (Tim and Sean were classmates at Cornell). When am I going to get the house decorated for fall??

The weekend festivities should provide some great photo opps so stay tuned.....

Cankle

This is what happens when you fall down the front steps.

I do not recommend it....
