MY BIRTHDAY

Liam hosted a jungled themed first birthday party. We have lot's of great photos to share thanks to the photography of the Fioravanti ladies. Here is a preview of a few birthday photos. I will share more when they are all sorted out.

This would have been the saddest photo ever if no one showed up for the party. As it turned out we had a very wild jungle full of crazy animals in our house.

One year complete, moving ahead full speed!

ABOVE THE RIM

I can't wait until Liam is old enough to play me 1-on-1 with the mini hoop. I can already picture how annoyed Jamie will be with how loud things are going to get in this house.

I couldn't dunk until I was much older so obviously I'm very proud of how athletic Liam is.

GODPARENTS

As of last weekend Liam has two new godparents. I believe these two were always were there for him even before it was official.

Liam relaxing in the grass with godfather Derek.

Liam trying to impress godmother Shelly with some table dancing. I told him to take his shirt all the way off but these kids don't listen.

And the best thing about the weekend? Liam's white suit!

TODDLING

Liam can now toddle.

(I don't get many excuses to play circus music so just deal with it or turn down your volume.)

WHILE I WAS OUT

I have been traveling in Europe for the last two weeks and while I was gone Liam learned to walk, he learned to wave goodbye with one hand, he grew a new tooth and he learned to clap his hands on command. In fact if you say, "Hooray for Liam!", he will give himself a round of applause.

Was I holding him back? It's as if my leaving caused him to sprout wings and fly around the house.

I can only think what we could accomplish I left for a whole month. When I got back Liam would be bench pressing 200 lbs, speaking Portuguese and probably would have already plugged the BP oil spill.

I will have a video for you soon of Liam walking around the house... and then falling down, I'm sure.
