to my little liam,
my sweet sweet baby boy, in just 1 month, you will be THREE! i have to constantly pinch myself and wonder how did time fly by so quickly. daddy and i are always trying to come up with different ways to capture your youth and make great memories with you, while you're small enough for us to carry but big enough for you to be the little independent boy that you are. we love every bit of you, from your cute, excited laughter to your heavy fistful of punches. you are becoming such a little manly boy!
right now, you have so many great interests, like baseball, oh baseball! you love playing catch with daddy on the front lawn and you love it when papa pitches the ball to you! you're always asking to watch baseball on tv and in the silence of it all, we find you mimicking every move the professionals make. for some reason, mommy is allowed to play baseball, because according to you, "baseball is only for boys", just like soccer, basketball, and football. apparently girls don't play sports in your eyes. your speech and vocabulary is excellent and growing every single day and yes, you do talk a lot! you learned how to spell your first and last name with great ease about 5 months ago and over 2 months ago, you picked up spelling "mom" and "dad", which made us oh, so proud! you've learned your colors and recently learned how to draw circles. oddly enough, you learned how to draw circles on the steamy shower glass door! it's so cute!
your food of choice at the moment is spaghetti. you could eat spaghetti every day if possible. as for breakfast, oatmeal or waffles are always your first choice! you are growing every day and i can barely believe how much taller you've gotten lately. you're as tall as my belly button right now! oh little liam, you amaze us and bring us so much happiness, especially when we aren't in the greatest moods. it just warms our heart when you come up to us and say, "don't get mad, get glad", what can we say, you've got mommy and daddy wrapped around your little finger! we love you to pieces and hope you will enjoy your big 3rd birthday party in exactly one month!
love,
your sweet sweet mommy and daddy
