On April 13, 2012 (HAPPY BIRTHDAY GRANDMA/MOM) Liam turned 22 months old!
This was the only photo our sweet (& strong willed) toddler wanted to take! So, that was the end of our 22 month photo session ;)
Liam has really blossomed in language development. He talks up a STORM! From "truck" to "choo-choo" to "bye-bye" (the sweetest little goodbye you've ever heard) and even starting to put words together ("dada chooz" (shoes) or "got you!"). He has the tiniest, sweetest little voice and it's so nice to be able to communicate with him. He makes his wishes pretty clear (hands me a remote and says "doogers" for diggers, which means Bob the Builder) or "app lll" when he wants an apple. His "bank you" for thank you and "peeaass" for please is pretty adorable too! Oh this stage is sooo fun!
Besides the many words he says, he's also pretending to read. Every night we read a book called "goodnight little kitten." Very simple text, basically just mama and dada telling their baby kitten to go to bed. Randomly Liam will pick up the book, mumble a bunch of words I don't understand followed with a "mama" or a "dada" depending on which character it is. Such a smart little boy!
He follows a series of directions very well. He'll pick up toys at night and put them where directed (usually, unless distracted or hyper), will pick up and then throw away trash when asked, grab a toy and bring it to you, etc. Very helpful and makes mama and dada very proud! He can also put his shoes on himself (sometimes the wrong feet, but it's progress). Now he's starting to take an interest in dressing himself too. And he's learned to open doors (yikes!) so we're Liam-proofing those! VERY independent this boy!
He LOVES throwing, catching and kicking a ball, LOVES trucks, tractors and trains (he's even starting to like race cars). He's charming, he's well liked and so intelligent. His daddy and I feel so blessed to have this young man in our lives!
Stats:
Weight-26 lbs
Height- 33 inches (approx., difficult to get an accurate measurement on this active boy!)
Diapers- size 4 (he tells me "no" when asked if he wants to go on the potty; although he will sit on it for a second, so that's progress!)
Clothes- still wearing 18 mo pants (skinny waist since birth) & wears 18mo-24/2t shirts & pajamas
To close, here's our big boy riding his "new to him" quad!
