Halloween with the monster

It was a great first Halloween with our little monster. We got to see a lot of the family and show off his first costume. His cousin McKessa's wedding was that day, so Nana & Papa Bothum, Auntie Cindy & Uncle Rick, along with Auntie Nancy & Uncle Bert were there. Afterwards we headed over to Grandma & Grandpa Casey's house to continue the celebration. Sally didn't know what to do when he was in his costume.

We have also visitied the doctors for his 6 month visit & shots. He did extremely well during the visit and is coming in at a whopping 19#'s, 27 3/4 inches. He has now started to eat cereal and has seemed to take right to it.

The pictures got imported in the reverse order. Oops.

Grandpa Casey trying to convince Sally it's OK to go see the dinosaur.Sally: " Should I stay or should I go????"

Dinosaur: "I'm going to get you little doggie!!!"

Day at the park

Eating for the first time.

6 MONTHS!!!!

Wow how the time has flown. Liam is now 6 months old, has 2 teeth - and we believe more are on the way, is working on crawling and loves to laugh. He has such a Great personality and is so fun to be around. We are excited to go to his 6 month appointment to see how he is doing and find out how this whole food thing is going to go.

A boy and his dog. Liam looks so small next to these two.

Liam and Kitty Calvin

Yes.... He was thinking about pulling Kitty Calvin's Tail.

Fingerpainting Fun. We gave up on paper and "decorated" the tray, chair, and we can't forget about Liam :) Our First soft sided John Deere Tractor

At Nana & Papa's House

Sooo Big!

Liam & his dog Two Pup.

Fun Times!

We continue to find new and exciting things to do. While we were trying to do 5 month hand and footprints, Liam decided that he was Done. He "let" me make footprints, but wanted to fingerpaint instead of making handprints - so... I let him go & boy did he have fun. We have continued to fingerpaint since that day & I can't wait until he can do more cool stuff like that. Liam is now attempting even harder to crawl (he has gone backwards by mistake a couple of times), and he is now also trying to pull himself up to a standing position when he is seated. Our little boy is growing up soo fast, I can't believe it.

Good Morning!! BRRRR.... It's getting cold outside.

Cool guy hat, matching plug, and mittens - what more could he ask for?

Fingerpainting fun.

More fingerpainting. He was covered Head to Toe by the time he was done.

Teeth, Teeth, oh those little white teeth!

Wow - Teeth are not my favorite part of being a mommy. Liam has been cutting two of his lower front teeth for the last week and sleep has NOT been part of our vocabulary during that time. It will all be worth it though once he looks up at us and smiles with those beautiful little teeth of his. He is sitting like a champ now and loves to have playtime with daddy before bedtime. He's not really crawling forward, but has gone backwards a couple of times (I think it may have been more by accident while trying to go forward.)
We went to Forest Lake over the weekend to watch cousin Nick play football. This was Liam's first time watching a game. After, we went to Pine City to visit Nana & Papa. The following day, we visited Grandma & Grandpa Casey.
