Liam Update Finally!

So it's been ages since I wrote anything on the blog....

Liam is growing up so fast. He's so tall now and his feet seem like they are growing right before my eyes. He's almost into a size 7 shoe! (I have no idea what that translates to in a US size.) He says so many words now, and in the last two weeks he is finally saying "drink" instead of "a-boo" when he wants a drink! No luck yet with toilet training. He isn't telling me as much when he's done a poo now, not like before. No hurry for toilet training really.

Things Liam really loves at the moment:

Bob the Builder, Thomas the Tank Engine (that seems to be the only thing he wants to watch this week, he'd watch it all day if I let him I think!), Makka Pakka from The Night Garden, Pirate toys, shirts whatever (it was a tough choice for t-shirts the yesterday between the pirate ship shirt or the train t-shirt, the train t-shirt won out).

Liam can count up to 20 now, can say all of the alphabet and knows most of the shapes and he's getting better with colours. He has turned into a bit of a parrot too and will copy you if you say something enough or if you ask him to try. He has definitely become a bit of a monkey though. He will climb onto anything! We have put our bar stools in the garage for awhile as he can climb up onto those on his own without any trouble at all. We have turned around a few times yesterday to find him sitting up there! He also thought he might try using the handles on the drawers as foot holds to try and climb onto the bench!

For those that haven't found the latest YouTube video here's the link

Liam is starting to find things amusing. For example, if he's watching tv and he sees kids dancing he starts laughing, it's so funny to watch. He is also being a typical two year old by always testing me to see what he can get away with and doing his cheeky grin thing. Today I felt like a broken record with all the no's I was saying!

I am sure there are heaps of things I've forgotten to write! I"ll try to update a bit more often for all of you overseas that don't get to see Liam.
