Liam @ 2 Months Old

Liam has grown heaps and bounds in the last couple weeks. Josh was home with us for 9 days and did a lot of talking with the baby. Liam has recently been all smiles. We seem to be entering a new phase with him, one that is much more enjoyable and a reward for the night feedings. He's cooing, gurgling and discovering new facial expressions everyday. It's been really fun watching Liam discover that he can coo and "talk" to us. We adore all the "oohs, aaahs, aaahh-gaa, and especially the urggurrlls". He is such a curious little baby and loves to look around, finding interest in everyday things that we wouldn't look twice at. I think Liam doesn't sleep that much because he doesn't want to miss anything! He sometimes goes for 10 hour stretches with no naps. The upside to this is that he is starting to sleep for longer stretches at night. The first month was hard but we are getting better at understanding what he needs and can comfort him before he gets too upset about anything. We generally know what he needs and wants so he seems very content. Not much crying unless he's hungry. Last week we took him to get his vaccines...3 shots in the chubby thighs and of course, Mommy cried too. We've had Liam out quite a bit for walks, shopping, and eating. Dinners with friends are fun and he seems to love the attention. Here is a photo of Liam in his new overalls and shoes...isn't he adorable! We went and bought him new clothes since he has already grown out of his old sleepers.
