A Typical Evening at Home

This one is mostly for the grandparents. I thought you might like our photo journal of a typical night with Liam.

Liam is usually a lot of fun at dinner time. He has enjoyed most of the foods we have given him to try. But the last two days we have given him pumpkin and it is definitely not a favorite. We were trying to capture his icky pumpkin face, but he can't help himself when he looks at Edwin; he always gives Edwin a big gummy grin. 
So, we had to be more sneaky about the picture taking. Here is the actual response to the pumpkin.
Didn't I tell you he is learning how to entertain on purpose?
Ugh, what is this orange glop?
And here is our biggest problem at dinner time. Sneaker has started stalking all around Liam, behind him on the window sills, beside him on the chairs, down on the floor, up on the bar stools. And Liam is now so fascinated by the kitty that he really struggles to focus on his food. 
He honestly pops up in a different place every minute or so, like one of those games where you have to hit the mole with a mallet when it pops out of the hole.
Then, after he eats he gets to take some hits off of his water bottle. Liam LOVES water! He gets so excited when we put his bottle on the tray. Sometimes I think he eats his food just to get the water at the end. And he is really good at handling the bottle, getting the straw in his mouth and sucking down as much water as he can.
Look, no hands!
Then, after dinner and a little play time Liam gets a bath.  He loves his bath. (Sorry, I didn't get any pictures.) After bath time it is bottle and story time. Then we brush his teeth, and in case I haven't told you, he now has two teeth on the bottom! Liam also loves having his teeth brushed, he thinks it's really funny. 
Finally, we put him to bed. One of our favorite parts of the night is going to see where he ends up when he finally falls asleep.  It is totally different every night. Last night he fell asleep on his tummy with his bottom sticking up into the air. Seriously! He was sound asleep and not moving at all. You may not be able to tell how high his little tush was in this picture, but trust me, it had some pretty good height to it!
