Liam's Christmas Toy

Here is Liam finally playing with his new Christmas toy from Quin and I. I wish it were a real airport and we were off on a family vacation! We need a vacation badly!

Liam's Third Christmas

I can't believe my little baby has had three Christmas with our family already!

A Few Christmas Pictures

The one with my niece with her hands in the air, she is jumping because she is super excited we got her the Tangled barbie :O). Christmas went really well this year. We spent it with both our families, even though it was sort it was still a lot of fun!

My Sisters

The Holidays always make me an emotional wreck, this one especially. I have been thinking about my sisters a lot lately. We all live in different towns this year. I miss living under the same roof sometimes. I know we all have to grow up, but I love having them around to talk to. I am glad we are able to talk to each other. We are always just a phone call or webcam/chat away. I love my sisters so much! They are my true best friends. We all have been through so many life changing events together. I love that I can call them and they will listen to my irrational thoughts, dumb jokes or silly stories. I can tell them what is on my mind even if it doesn't make sense. Or I can call just to ask dumb questions. I am the baby of the family so there are plenty of irrational thoughts my way....I was spoiled by my parents and my sisters. We may have our rough patches but we always work them out. I hope we stay this way for a long time!! I miss them so much! I love you guys! Can't wait to see you all Friday! :'(

Hanging around.....

Christmas Break is great! Just hanging around the house spending time together.

Liam's First Christmas Present

He was super excited to get woody in RC (if you shake it, it moves). He was jumping and laughing

Sunday

Liam did really well in the nursery at church today. I am proud that he only cried for five minutes and was over it. Hopefully this can become a part of our Sunday routine. As much as I would love for him to sit in church with me, he just can't sit still and quiet for that long yet.

Potty Training Day #2

Tired after a long day of potty training yesterday and dancing to Christmas music. He loves Elvis' Blue Christmas. He was swaying and singing "without you." The one day he can sleep in, I can't!

Day one of potty training was pretty difficult. We tried the bare method with him yesterday. That did not work at all! He loves being naked but he would purposely pee on the floor because he loves to clean up. So we bought him plastic training pants half way through the day. With those he started to tell me when he was wet. (He hates feeling wet, before I started potty training he would take off his own diapers when he used the restroom).  I am going to continue on with those hopefully he will eventually learn to tell me he needs to use the restroom.

DAY TWO HERE WE GO!

Potty chart

Liam putting his stickers on his potty chart. Printed it out from the pull ups site. He hasn't gone yet but we have sitting on the seat, flushing the toliet, and washing his hands down.  ;)

Potty Training Day #1

Yesterday I went to pick Liam up at daycare, and I was given a potty training video. They told me it would be nice if he was potty trained by the time he comes back from Christmas Break. It would be awesome for him to be potty trained and cheaper on daycare expenses. So here we go, DAY ONE starts now! Liam is going to be in the bathroom every thirty minutes from now till we get the hang of this potty training business. Wish us luck! :O)

P.S. If you have any potty training advice let me know!

Happy Picture

It only makes me happy because every time Liam sees him, Liam laughs and says HoHoHo! :)

Christmas lights

I love Christmas lights! Its a blurry picture of our tree by the beach. We are on a wind advisory, so it really hard to hold my phone still. Liam kept yelling STAR! He loves stars like his Tia Carney.

Christmas Break

My Christmas break has officially started! I am so excited!!! :O) More time for me and my little man. I miss the days when I used to stay home alone with him. :(

So I decided I am going to post pictures up everyday of things that make me happy during this holiday season. My first picture is of my family. I love spending time with my little family. I love this picture because my two boys lifted their heads high whenever I said lets take a picture. They are so silly together. Those two always make me laugh.

Getting ready for Christmas

For some reason my phone is not cooperating in sending pictures to the blog. So I will have to put pictures up through the computer till then. Here is a picture of Liam helping decorate the Christmas tree. He loves the candy decorations. :)

Where is the winter weather? Its 82 outside. Doesn't feel like Christmas time.

First Post

Hello!

This is our first post. Trying to figure out the odds and ends still. I gave up Facebook because of how time consuming it was and how much privacy you give up. Anyway, hopefully I can learn how to post pictures up through my mobile because that is one thing I did like about Facebook. I like to keep our families updated on Liam's pictures and it is much faster to send it off from my phone. Well I hope everyone is having a great weekend!
