Liam Using Sign Language

Today Liam used sign language for the second time ever! It was a surprise because we haven't been very consistent with teaching him how to sign. It happened after supper and Liam was fussing to get out of his chair so I asked him if he was all done and he signed that he was! Pretty cool!



This is a great incentive to teach him more sign language!

Fall at Our House

We moved in around the beginning of November last year, so this year was the first time I got to see our Mountain Ash in all it's glory! After I took this picture, the leaves got even redder...I love it!


















Joel and Josiah came over for on their birthday for a special lunch with Liam and me. Of course, all three of them got in some "Wrestle Mania" with my mom.










Nialle's sisters, Carly and Katie, came over for Thanksgiving. Of course Liam was smothered with love from these two! Both of these girls thoroughly enjoy being aunties!

And Liam? Well, this picture sums up his current status around here!

Liam finally has two teeth - he got his top right tooth first and then his lower left tooth! Life has been pretty exciting ever since!

Liam's latest fascination is dropping things down the stairs. At the end of the day, our staircase is riddled with teddies, blocks, pillows, socks and whatever else he can chuck over the side of the baby gate. Liam also has learned he likes to drop things down the heat register upstairs. Fabulous.


The other day, Liam discovered where I keep the treats I take along with me when I go subbing. He is very good at discretely taking the wrapper off of a sucker and happily goes about his business. I'm discovering sticky hand prints everywhere now!







I'm back subbing part-time. It's nice to be out and about again, but it's always nicer to come home to Liam.

That's been our fall so far...and fall always ushers in my favorite time of year - Christmas!
