Liam gave me a great opportunity last night for a hilarious, yet cute, photo of him. However, something was going on with the camera and all the shots were ruined...so instead I invite you to check out Liam's 2nd year in photos (please click link below):

Liam's 2nd Year Book!

This is what happens when Liam realizes that he can't have everything he wants or that everything doesn't belong to him- Out of the hundreds of leaves, Olive took the one Liam wanted.

Sorry I don't have any good photos this week. Here is one I snapped quick during the costume parade at daycare. I am sure everyone of those teachers dread that day. all . year. long. Kids crying, parents stuffing their kids in ridiculous costumes, eating candy (or pretzels per my class donation), parents holding up the parade to get some pictures of their kid. Andrew and I were there for an hour and seriously it felt like five hours.  We did get to see Liam in action in class...circle time, name game and snack time. It was cute and it was reassuring that he enjoys his time with his buddies and his teachers & they enjoy him, too.

Same boy. Same park. Same time of year. Same ten fingers holding on tight.

Lots more teeth. Lots more hair. Less baby face. Lots more big boy.

This week flew by. It was a short work week. We got lots of rain. and then more rain. and then some more. Locally there are areas that are literally under water. There are mandatory evacuations. Bridges closed yesterday. No driving in some areas (including a whole county) Schools are having "rain" days. Homes are being destroyed by this water. There even have been some fatalities. I know areas beyond the Capital Region are being hit even harder and experiencing even more devastation. Everytime I see more photos or hear another story about how Irene and Lee have impacted our area, I feel awful for those families and feel so blessed that we are okay.

Liam loves to say "puddle" and loves to jump in those puddles even more. After a long day of rain and being indoors all day long he got to do a little splashing.  So did Lovey.

It's Friday! Yahoo! Liam is going to get a surprise tonight. Details to be shared later. And we are suppose to get a visitor sometime this weekend. Her name is Irene and she is wound up about something. Enjoy the weekend and stay safe if Irene should drop by your neighborhood too.

In honor of Ms. Olive's 5th birthday. While some most days she makes me crazy, I could not ask for a more sweet, gentle, kind, understanding and loving dog. Happy Birthday, Olive! Can't wait to see how the next five years treat you.

Here is a little something I worked on this week. Liam really enjoys

looking at his photo album, 

but he also likes to take

the pictures out- which 

means the photos have

been through the ringer.

I hope this book will

prevent any more photo injuries.

Can't wait for it to arrive!

Where did Liam go? Oh right, he likes to get under the bed when Olive is hiding under there...she can't catch a break. She is under there, just look for her gray beard.

what is in Liam's mouth...oh right, anything he can stuff into it these days.

And let me tell you one more thing...

Ready to conquer the day!

here is a sneak peek from our world this week...

another venture into gardening

the black thumb has not attacked...yet

quick sprint & the front of the house that we are trying to improve

so big, so much fun

a new favorite even though his face is covered in crap.  I usually catch that.

another new favorite...strawberries & cream

Liam takes dipping very seriously

and then not so serious

we may have gotten a little silly

"hi!"
