Happy Mother's Day

We really didn't mean to go so long without posting, honest. Life comes along and tends to get in the way sometimes. Looking at our last post we realize that the last thing Liam was doing was scooching backwards. Well, now he's pulling up on everything, he walks around the couch and anything else that is stationary. Just the other day he let go of the couch and stood there a good 10 seconds, then calmly sat down. September and I, on the other hand, were not so calm: "Honey! Look! Look!" and "Hooray Liam! Good Boy!" Liam is past the point of needing a haircut. Each weekend we say we'll do it but then there's just so much else that needs done. (sigh... if only I had a robot to do my bidding...) In the last picture he totally looks like a zombie.

Today is Mother's Day. Moms have been called. Here's a picture of my wife. She had a professional photographer take a bunch of glamor shots for our first anniversary. I wasn't expecting it at all. Some were printed off and given to me. The rest are on the guys website. That's why there is a watermark on this pic. I currently have it as my desktop at work.

Why do things keep moving further away?

Liam has started the backwards scooch. We're pretty sure that moving away from things you're trying to move towards must get a little confusing. He moves all over the floor now using a mix of rolls and scooches. It's really fun to watch.
Today was a beautiful Saturday. We went outside for a while and just sat and enjoyed the weather.

It's Been A Busy Month

Lots has happened over the last month. We havn't had much time to add anything to the blog. Aside from cute pictures, there are two videos. I think they're all self-explainatory.

In other news we have a release date for "Rocketmen: Axis of Evil". It's the game that I've been working on at ACRONYM. It will be available for download as of Feb 28th.

That about sums things up for now.

Happy Fresh Calander!

We fully intended to make a couple posts over the Christmas holidays, but it was just too easy not to. It was so nice to have a nice long break. I enjoyed spending time at home with Liam and September.

Well, it seems that the majority of the pictures currently on our camera are corrupt. It's weird because they work on the camera, but won't display properly on the computer. About a tenth of the picture shows up at the top and then it's gray the rest of the picture. I'm going to find out what I can do to fix this so we can salvage the pictures and videos.

For now though, here are a couple pictures and a video. I know the video is sideways, but I haven't taken the time to alter it. Normally Liam giggles like a madman when I toss him in the air. When we took this video he would quit laughing as soon as the camera was aimed his way. Whenever the camera comes out he usually just stares at it. This video was after a few attempts, and my arms were getting tired.

Well, I'm having issues posting the pictures, so this video will have to be enough for now.

Smart Boy!

Well, we've got quite the smart little guy. He's allready figured out that the spoon goes in his mouth. During the day when September feeds Liam she lets him hold his own little spoon in his hand. The other day we decided to see what he would do with it if it had food on it. We put food on it and put it in his hand. It went straight to his eye. He hit his bottom lid and left a blop of food there. Then he moved it and it all got stuck on his chin. I wish I had caught the first try on camera, but I am glad I got the second one.

After that he got it right to his mouth 90% of the time. We are very impressed. It wasn't a one time thing either, because he's does it every time he eats now. It doesn't go as quickly, so partway through he doesn't want to wait for it so we feed him the rest. He is allso starting to be able to sit up. He doesn't sit up by himself, but once we set him up he can stay balanced. We still watch him just in case though.

We pulled out the Christmas decorations on Monday night, and decorated Tuesday night. Here is Liam meeting the Bumble for the first time.

First Food

We gave Liam his very first spoon-fed meal yesterday. There's a picture and a video. I'm still amazed that I'm actually a father. It's amazing how much this little guy means to me already. He's outgrown several more of his sleepers this week. I'm going to miss a couple of them because they're so cute on him. He's still a very happy baby, and he makes lots of happy noise. We consider ourselves very lucky that he doesn't cry all that often.

First Haloween

We didn't get around to making costumes for ourselves because we were more excited about making one for Liam. In the end we decided to dress Liam up as a red pikmin. Pikmin is a video game for the nintendo game cube. It's quite a fun little game. I've added a picture of some pikmin so that you can compare.



Here are a few more pics. We've taken several that we really like this week. The last picture was taken today. Liam was trying to eat his feet, and he was getting pretty close to getting his big toe in his mouth. I tried to snap a picture of it, and it turned out pretty cute. September got a sound recording of Liams giggles. We're trying to figure out how to get it onto the blog because it is so cute, but that will be another day.
