where has the time gone.....

baby boy you are 12 weeks old this week.....the last time I was able to write you were half this age and my how you have changed. You are curious of your surroundings, you are smiling now and it's gorgeous in every way, you are funny and you laugh at things and you think mommy and daddy are the greatest things since sliced bread. We are so in love with you little monkey....each day with you is a new adventure and we still pinch ourselves to realize that you are ours. At your last doctors appointment you were almost 16 pounds and had grown almost 2 1/2 inches. You are no longer in your newborn sized clothes and starting at 2 months you were already wearing things labeled 3-6 months. Your favorite toy is your pal, Mort the Monkey and your jungle gym play mat. You are starting to roll over and have definitely started the teething process. You are eating both formula and breast milk and still get up once a night for a few minutes of some quality quiet time with mommy. Daddy is home taking care of you this summer while mommy is back at work and he is doing such a good job. You love your bath time but even more so you love taking a shower....you get so excited when the water rushes over your head and you coo the whole time. Your little buddha belly, strong hands and deep blue eyes are breathtaking. Your favorite "tv show" is the ceiling fan and you could look up and around for hours if we'd let you. (mommy is secretly concerned you're doing damage to your neck...haa)
We are so blessed by you Liam! God truly knew what he was doing when he gave us you as a son....you are perfect in every way and we couldn't ask for a better baby. We can't wait to see where you take us next !
We love you punkin!

  1. A baby could only be this wonderful by having a mother as extraordinary as you. Thank you for the sacrifices that you have made, the hours you work and the sleep that you may miss. It means more to me then you could ever imagine. The lord made you a mother Amanda. He gave you every gift and skill that you would need. And you have fulfilled those roles to a level to which I had never thought possible. I love you more everyday and am blessed beyond anything I could ever imagine or deserve.
