Liam, 8 Months

Look at me, ma!

What's new with Liam at 8 months?  The little guy does not like being cooped up these days. He is quite the little explorer and loves to crawl everywhere and get his hands on everything and put it in his mouth. He can pull himself up to standing position and even take a few steps while holding onto one of his larger toys.

Liam has 8 teeth now!  Four front top and four front bottom. No wonder he likes to bite everything.

Liam started eating Cheerios a few days ago, which is very exciting for me because it also keeps him occupied at the high chair! Other foods he has had: beef, chicken, rice porridge, potato, carrots, zucchini, butternut squash, spagetti squash, sweet potato, and all the other standard baby fare such as rice cereal, apple, banana. He's eating very, very well!

This little baby is still very easy to take care of. Thank goodness because Connor is still a handful these days, demanding lots of attention.

Looking like a little Buddha baby!

In this photo you can see Liam's four lower teeth.

Happy after a relaxing bath.

I took this photo to see their height difference.

Fright Night! Halloween 2012

Connor the Pumpkin had a blast this Halloween! During the morning at school, the kids got to make a cat bag for stashing Halloween loot. Then they went from class to class to get trick or treat!

In the evening we went trick or treating with his friend Andrew from school (in the dragon costume below), and two of Andrew's friends from his apartment.  It was fun watching them trot from house to house and yelling "Happy Halloween!". The neighbours around here are amazing, many houses with extensive decorations including live actors popping out of a trash can, a dead body on the ground coming to life, smoke machines, and music!  Needless to say, Connor got too much candy (2+ buckets full).

Liam had fun too, he was dressed up as Tigger the Tiger!
