Blessing Day

Today my little boy was blessed by his father Paul. They both did a great job. Paul was calm and I am so glad he has the priesthood and is able to bless his son. Liam was awake during the blessing and did not even cry. He looked so cute in his litte outfit. We had both sides of the family their which we were very greatful for and had a fun brunch after sacrament. So glad I did not have tons of leftovers after. This will be a special day we will remember and we are so glad to have such a sweet spirit to raise.

The second of two new posts

So second blog today, told you we have been busy. Liam is getting blessed this sunday and I have been doing a little fashion show with Liam. He ended up trying on his dad's blessing outfit and his cousin's outfit. We decided he will be wearing his own for the big day but it was sure fun seeing all three on him.

As of Late

So The past two weeks Liam has been really stuffed up and was only seeming to get worse. Last Friday I took him to the doctor just to make sure it was only a cold. Turns out it is only a cold but this momma is not enjoying her eight week old not feeling so good, but he really is being a trooper. I have gotten many smiling shots and videos of him and been keeping busy. We tried out his bumbo seat just recently and I think he likes it, makes him feel like a big boy. He also has really strong legs loves to stand, even at the doctors office she tried to lay him down and he would not have that showed off and stood up with help of balancing hands.

Week of Halloween

This past week I took lots of pictures of my little Liam and we had a couple of Halloween festivities we went to and enjoyed. On October 30 we went to my parents trunk or treat and then on Halloween we went to a friends house and went trick or treating with my side of the family. Liam just wore a little monster onesie and slept in a pack held by his dad the whole time. Next year I am sure he will get a little more enjoyment out of the holiday. I also was able to catch him smiling on camera and hope you enjoy the video. All these pictures are of Liam this past week from 6 weeks to 7 weeks. My little guy is getting so big. He also caught a cold this past week and I took him to the pediatrician, nothing serious but did find out he is over 10 pounds now!

So sad of Liam tiny

So I found such a sad video of Liam he is like one day old and three days old in the videos. The videos were taken by his dad Paul, he did it because he thought it was funny that when Liam was learning to cry his little chin quivered. This momma just finds it heart breaking. But for memories sake I am putting it on here.

Fall can it really be so.....

I thought i would do a better job keeping my blog updated seeing as i am not working, at least not working at the hospital. But wow Liam keeps me busy, not only with feeding and all that but hates to be put down. Well this past 6 weeks sure has been a challenge. It is so true that these little angels do not come with manuals. I have had lots of bumps along the way but had lots of family and friends to help me and pick me back up when i have felt i could not get back up. Liam has been growing and learning so much. I am happy to say he did learn how to breast feed after 5 weeks of pumping for this mom i was threw. Course only a day after he decided to breast feed i was diagnosed with mastitis after a trip to urgent care with a fever of 101. So antibiotics and me will be friends for ten days. Liam smiles all the time and has graduated to size one diapers and fits 0-3 month clothes in length and is still working on the girth fitting part.At his almost 5 week check up he weighed 8lbs. 14 ounces which is the 25% and height was 22.5 inches which is almost the 90%, looks like he is def taking after daddy. His coming home outfit is now high waters which is sad cause it only feels like yesterday that i was awaiting his arrival. He has started to transition into fall clothes which none of them really fit him but oh well they still look cute and I am just loving the weather and so is Liam he loves to be outside, can you blame him with temps at 75 degrees! Liam also got to meet a future friend who was born only 6 days after him, me and his mom are good friends so we are excited to see this friendship grow.

Photo Shoot

I was so excited for our first family photo shoot. It was very much something that occupied my mind alot during my pregnancy. Paul's dad did us the honor of taking these pictures for us we thank him so much and will cherish them always. Their is alot but i think you will enjoy, I must say I have a beautiful family! I love my boys!

Liam is a growing boy

Yesterday me and Paul took Liam to his first doctors apointment. The pediatrician said Liam is a very healthy boy! He is already just about back to his birth weight. I have been having so much fun with him. He has alot of the same habits as his dad. He loves to sleep and he is deff a side sleeper. No matter what position i put him in he alsways ends up on his side. Him and daddy have had quite a few naps together course he has napped with me too. Only issues we are having is he is not a very good breast feeding eater. He takes it fine from the bottle though, it is just alot of work for this mommy. Surprisingly my lack of sleep has not caught up with me yet and i am so greatful for that. I just love taking care of this little guy even at 2am.
