What's been going on lately....

It is that time of year again...brewing season! Jake has brewed beer for many years. It started with his dad, who would get him and his brothers together and they would spend time in their basement, in the brew room, brewing beer together.  Jake still enjoys brewing beer and it looks like Liam will also enjoy it! We were outside and I sat him down for 5 seconds to help Jake and off he went to the bucket.  He just slapped the water and it went all over him.  I figured that since he was already wet and needed a bath, why not just let him go wild!  Of course he did and was living the dream.  He played in the water and with the bottles....back and forth between the two.  He was so mad when I took him inside to hose him off and get a bath.  It was a very sweet to watch him play in his own little world.  I can't wait for this tradition to continue with Liam.  Here are some pictures of all the fun he had!
Liam was in heaven with this bucket full of suds...he is all boy

Dad's helper...a future brewer
Taking the bottles out so daddy could clean them

He was so dirty! Grass, mud, diaper full of pee and suds...

He had a blast!


Liam is walking along all the furniture and stands all by himself.  The other night when we were at a friends house for dinner he took a step to me all by himself.  I screamed really loud and then he dropped to the ground because he was a little nervous from my scream.  He has a little car that changes from a car to a little push toy and has been pushing it around the house....but while on his knees.  Yesterday, when I picked him up from PDO, his teacher, Miss Beatrice, said he was standing up today pushing the push toy around....something new.  We got home and he did it once but them didn't seem interested in it.  After we got home from dinner last night, Jake and I got him to push towards each of us and he just pushed that little thing around with ease.  He maneuvers it with one hand.  I think he will be walking really soon!! I took a video of him doing it last night.  I hope you enjoy it and please disregard Jake and I.  We were trying to get him motivated : )  Here is the video! Hope you enjoy!!!
