Dear Liam

Dear Liam,

You were blessed by your loving daddy on March 27th, 2011. You looked so handsome in your little white tux that Mimi bought for you. Your dad couldn't make it to your name before he started to tear up. It was a tender and beautiful blessing. Daddy blessed you that as you grow, you will be healthy and strong and able to perform any physical activities that come throughout your life. He blessed you with a strong mind and with a desire to learn and gain an education. He blessed you to always seek learning from sources that would influence your life for good. Daddy also told you how much your Father in heaven loves you. He blessed you that you will develop a testimony of Jesus Christ and the Atonement and that you will have the desire to make covenants at baptism and in the temple. He blessed you with the desire to someday serve a mission and bring others to the Gospel. He blessed you that through your example, others will come into the Gospel. He blessed you with physical health, mental strength, and spiritual strength. He also expressed how much your parents love you and will always be here for you. Even though you cried through most of it, and your big sister was fussing because she wanted to be by you and daddy, it was perfect. We are so thankful to have you in our lives. Your smiles light up the room. I can't wait to see the wonderful young man you will become. We love you, our dear sweet Liam.

Love,

Mommy and Daddy

Looking so handsome in your tux.
I can't get over how stinking cute you are
I got some smiles out of you.
You look even cuter when you smile.
Mommy, daddy, and you. Hannah was napping when we took this picture....but it appears that your mommy was the one in need of a good nap.

Big Kids

At 6 week's old Liam is a whopping 12 lbs and 22 inches long. Now for some perspective here. Everyone who know's Hannah know's she is a big girl. She is one of the younger kids in nursery and stands about a head taller than everyone else. She is 2 year's old, 37 inches tall, 34 lbs, and wear's 3T and 4T clothes. My 2 year old is the size of a 4 year old. Hannah was just over 12 lbs and 22 inches at her 2 month check up. That mean's Liam is 2 week's ahead of Hannah in size. That mean's Liam is bigger than Hannah. Which mean's Jake and I are just destined to make BIG babies. Which mean's we go through clothing sizes surprisingly fast in this household.

Here is our little man at 6 week's old. He looks so grown up in this picture. And handsome.
Already a big basketball fan
Hannah loves to hold her baby brother
And gives him plenty of kisses
He fell asleep dancing with daddy. Turn's out little Liam is a huge Josh Groban fan.
