Birthday and Fathers Day

Liam has taken quite a liking to freezies, and loves to share mine with me whenever I have one. He has all four front teeth now and it makes eating stuff much easier. We finally gave him his first haircut a while back.

before and after

Liams first birthday was on friday (the 13th!) and we had a little birthday party for him yesterday. Val, Ed, Bryce, Rachel and Aiden came over. The first thing Liam did was pull Aiden's soother out of his mouth. He looked at it for a couple seconds then tried to put it back into Aiden's mouth. Liam has never taken to a soother, so I'm not sure why he decided to steal Aiden's. He didn't really like the cake much, but he played with it for a bit.

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.
