Being a Goober

Yesterday Liam had his one-year check-up! He weighs 27 lb. 14 oz. (>95th percentile), he's 32 inches tall (>95th %), and he's a very healthy boy.

After the appointment, everything was normal until bedtime. It took almost two hours of screaming and crying before he fell asleep around 9...then he woke up at 2 a.m. and wouldn't fall back to sleep until 3:40 a.m. and got up again at 6. Mommy was very tired today (Daddy's been in Florida all week for work) - - but when Liam is being a goober, the tiredness isn't so bad.

This afternoon we spent some time outside again after work & day care. Who could be tired or have a bad day around this goofy boy?!?!



Almost forgot - - on Tuesday (July 8th) Liam stood on his own, without holding on! Chaka (our cat) was napping on the cot that was still in our office from our weekend guests. Liam crawled over and stood up - while holding on - to pet Chaka. Then he pointed to some toys on top of the file cabinet, so I grabbed them. I held one out, and Liam took it with one hand. I held the second one out, and Liam took that one in his other hand. He stood there for at least a minute before he realized what he was doing, and sat back on his tush. It was so exciting - I could hardly breathe!!!
