my birthday dinner


Kind of a late post...but I wanted to put up pictures from my birthday dinner. We went to HuHot for my birthday with the Birkey's. (Fyi...HuHot=amazing. If you have not been, GO.) It was a great time to celebrate turning a quarter century old :). Thank you so much to my mom and dad and the Birkey's for celebrating with me :)

12 Months

Liam had his 12 month check-up yesterday at the pediatrician. He did well, until the mean nurse came in with his three shots :). That trauma proved the last the ENTIRE day. But he is growing well! He is 21 lb 8 oz, which only puts him in the 29th percentile in weight, and 30 inches long which puts him in the 57th percentile in height! The doctor was very happy with Liam's development up to this point. He told us things like, he can sit facing forward in this car seat now, and, you can start him on whole milk. So we just said, ok! Decided not to mention that we took it upon ourselves to do both of those things a couple of months ago :).

Here are a few pictures of Liam enjoying his birthday present from us. I forgot how cold the water is that comes out of a garden hose! I figured he would hate it because the water was so cold, but he loved every minute of it! His little chin chattered the whole time, but he was smiling! :)






Oh SO cold!

so I'm happy!"













Could I sell this one to
Toy's R Us to use for
an ad? :)

Liam's First Birthday Party

We had a great party at mom and dad's on Saturday.  Liam is SO blessed to have so many amazing people in his life who love him so much.  He got a ridiculous amount of presents, just like any 1 year old should, I suppose :).  He really seemed to enjoy it, which I was so happy about.  He thought eating his cake, was pretty great.  Although it did require a bath afterwards :).  Here are a few pictures of our day.  Thank you so much to everyone who was able to come...you all helped make it very special.
