Liam's Six Month Check Up





Liam went in for his six month check up today and it was confirmed that he is truly perfect in every way! He is 18 pounds, 7 ounces, but I think he is 18 pounds, 12 ounces. That is what the scale said until he started pulling himself up by the cords for the ear-scopey thing. I am sure Fred will let me know that is not the technical term for it. Anyhow, he is 27 1/2 inches already too, so 90 percentile for his height and 75 percentile for his weight. He has a little bit of a cold, so no shots today. We will wait until next week and Liam and I were just fine with that postponement.


It was a glorious 65 degrees outside today so we spent a lot of time outside. When not outside walking around with Liam enjoying his new upright stance in the stroller (since we have retired the pram), Liam is chilling in his borrowed car. In fact, he was caught passed out behind the wheel! Oh my!

It is always nice to know that others can recognize how perfect our Sir Liam is !! The newest blog pictures are terrific, showing his winning and engaging smile.
Re sleeping at the wheel....Sir Liam is still a better driver than most on the road :-))

Dear Sir Liam the Cute,

I think you are absolutely cute and with the unconditional love and great care that your mom and dad, and everyone of us (both sides of O'Brien and Rhynerson) have given to you, you definitely are going to be the most wonderful person on this earth.

May God continue to bless You and your Mom and Dad.

Love you tons,
