Liam-isms

At just over 4 years old:

Any time in the past was "Last day".  Now it has evolved into "lasterday" - a word we all love and use.

Every night (for the last 6 plus months), when I'm putting him to bed Liam will say, "Weesa - I love my train table".  I used to say, "I love your train table too", but he put a stop to that.  He said, "I love my train table ONLY" (meaning that I was not allowed to love his train table).  I just realized that he's just down to once or twice a week of saying this before sleeping.

He told Jane first thing in the morning that that there was "chocolate milk in his story upstairs" (his dream!)

Going to bed one night Jane said, "Goodnight - I love you" and Liam replied, "I love you too mama".  First time ever to reply that.  His schtick used to be to reply to an 'I love you' with "I love Harley, Kitty Boy, Coco, Molly and that little dog next door".  He has done it again one time since.

Birthday Party Prep

Sometimes you need a really big cart for your birthday party items

Blackberries

Picking blackberries for Mommy because he is a Good Boy (well, BIG BOY, which is the only label he will accept right now)

Little Gym

Over the summer, Liam went to some fun camps at The Little Gym.  We were a bit worried that he would be hesitant to go but he completely loved it.

Lyric's Back!

They celebrated Lyric's return from vacation with a big breakfast at McD's

First Day of School - August 19th

Liam went back to school at Leclaire on 8/19.  He is in Mrs. Mueller's afternoon Early Childhood class. 

Naturally, he wore a tie for the occasion

Illinois State Fair

One last pit stop on the Thomas adventure was the Illinois State Fair.

Refreshed and ready to rock and roll

A Day Out With Thomas

Arriving at the Train Station

Getting a Thomas tattoo

IT'S REALLY HIM!

Silly on the train with Mama

That was exhausting

Later Liam is revived enough to eat all of the food at Panera

Road Trip to Thomas (8/17/13)

Liam and his Mama went on a road trip outside of Chicago to "A Day Out With Thomas".  They stayed in two different hotels and went to the Illinois State Fair on the way home.

At *2 Toots* watching the train deliver the food

"Relaxing on the bed" before going to see Thomas (watching t.v. in bed is a dream come true for Liam)
