Are you ready for some football?

Liam's pick: the Giants. Nothing against the Patriots or their fans; he just wants his Grandpa and Uncle Brian to be happy. Fortunately, Liam didn't last through the Super Bowl - he was asleep by 7 as usual. He just woke up (10:40) with a soaked diaper and a BIG burp. After some walking around, and some mattress-bouncing, he fell back to sleep.

Liam was so good today. We started the day at 6:30. He ate, played, and napped before we took him to church for the second time. This church (Uncle Brad's church) was a bit more contemporary than the last - they had a band and group of singers (rather than the traditional organ and hymns). He was due for a bottle just as the service started - so I got one ready, but he was so excited & distracted by the music. He stood on daddy's lap, bounced to the music, and waved his hands around. Once the pastor started speaking, Liam started his bottle. When the bottle was done, Liam started speaking up!

But, there were accomodations - we watched the rest of the service on a screen in a room next to the main room. It worked out perfectly; I think we found a keeper. Plus we get to see Aunt Aly & Uncle Brad if we go to this one.

The rest of the day was great. More yogurt today; although, we gave him a bit less than yesterday. Trying to avoid the smelly spit up. And Liam took all of his naps. (even mommy got to sneak in a good half hour in the afternoon)

Cutest moment of the day: we were playing on the floor and Liam kept raising both arms toward me, so I decided to take that as "Give me a hug, Mom." He gave a squeeze right back - ah! I love Liam-hugs!!!

So it's 11:10 p.m. Liam is back to sleep. Here's hoping he stays asleep until 7 a.m. Fingers crossed!

Good night, sweet boy.

12:45 a.m. and we're up again. This time we walked around until he fell asleep; as soon as I laid him down he started screaming. So we changed the diaper (only a little wet) and walked some more. Still screaming - so we had a bottle. But only 4 oz. this time.

He still screamed when I laid him down, but he calmed himself down right away. The lullaby is still going, but I think he's already asleep. Whew. It's 1:22 a.m. and mommy's going back to sleep.
