Liam's 1 months old!!


It is hard to believe it has already been a month since I had my Little Liam. It just boggles my mind. It is just a day that you just can not wait to get here to finally meet them, and when it is over it just FLIES from then on. Liam is such a good baby. I am not just saying that because I am his mom. Everyone saw how good Declan was and a lot of people would say, "Oh, just wait for the next one then." So, I was nervous thinking "Oh great. The next one is going to cry their heads off all the time, because apparently everyone thinks that you can't have all good babies...
WELL WE HAVE LUCKED OUT! :D hahaa..

He only cries when he is hungry. Seriously that is it. Sure he can get fussy/gas symptoms, but it is nothing. Plus, during the last week he has changed in his sleeping patterns and last night(for instance) he fell asleep at 10:00pm and didn't wake up til' 6:00am!! I know, LUCKY!! He eats like a little piggy during the day, naps here and there for 2 to 3 hours too. I hope the sleeping at night continues. I am sure he'll wake up earlier than that every now and then, but so far he is waking up only at 5:00am or 6:00am.

Declan loves his little brother. He tries to be helpful, but sometimes a little TOO helpful...here's the story:

I was helping a customer in the office...and Kris just got home from work too. Liam started crying and I noticed that Declan went in the house. I thought nothing of it really. I thought he might just be going to go to watch TV or play with his toys. When Kris went around the corner I heard Kris just gasp and raise his voice at Declan saying, "No! No...what you doing?" I have never heard that kind of tone in Kris's voice, and it made my heart DROP!

Declan was being helpful in his own way, heard Liam crying...so he went in there to bring Liam to me since I couldn't get to him. Kris said he walked around the corner and Declan had Liam hanging upside down by a foot on one leg and was holding onto a thigh on the other leg!! I'm so glad he didn't drop him!!! I'm so glad Kris is the one that saw it and not me because I would've died seeing that and probably could never get the image out of my head!!

It scared Declan to see how scared Kris was and myself. I cried and was moving all of Liam limbs and such to see if he would cry to show any 'hurt' areas...but he's fine! We made Declan understand why that was bad and made him go on his bed(which he cried himself to sleep). He loves his brother, and lets just hope he does not do anything like this AGAIN.

Anyways, my sister in law Becky took pictures of Liam on August 6th, exactly when he turned 1 month. I had him in a few outfits, and his blessing outfit. Took a few with Declan and a few with me and Kris. I'll post those as soon as I get them.

Liam was blessed by Kris on August 8th. We did it that Sunday because it was the only Sunday that worked before my Brother and his family moved to New York. He got a job in Palmyra to run/manage the Motel by the Temple and Sacred Grove! Pretty neat opportunity, but I/we are sure going to miss them!!

Liam had many family members in the Blessing Circle. Kris, Chase, cousin Tyson, Uncle Robert, soon-to be husband to my cousin Ty, Brother Bird, Brother Marlin, Larry/Grandpa, Kalab, and Jon. I think that's it?? It was a nice turn out. More than I thought would come. Kris did a wonderful blessing! I'm so grateful for him and his testimony and priesthood which he holds! Such a amazing husband and father to us.

We then had a lunch at Kris's parents(Thanks to my mom and mother in law). Pretty much everyone that was there came to eat. It was really fun to laugh and visit with everyone.
THANK YOU ALL FOR COMING!! It meant a lot.

Here's some pictures of Liam, Declan and Asher(my brother's son) and some of the Blessing day:
