Liam is growing so fast, he is 20lbs 3.5oz, definitely a little peanut like his big brother Jaden was! Liam refuses to walk. He could probably walk if he wanted to its just that he is so afraid of falling. Its his biggest fear. It makes me wonder where these fears come from...hmmmm. Jonah has a fear of water and drowning, Jaden had a fear of hair and he still does in many ways. If any hair came near Jaden as a baby he would become so upset and scream. It was weird and sad. He still struggles with getting his haircut unless he is taken to the barber. Liam's fear is falling. If he is holding on to a door and you start to open it, even slowly, he freaks out. He flips out of he is holding a box and it moves slightly. Any thing and every thing that messes with his balance or what not he gets upset. He will let go of it and sit on his butt crying. He walks fine with his walker and he turns almost every thing into a walker, as long as its stable and doesn't shake.
I have a feeling he will start walking some time between now and 15mos old.
We have tons of teeth though. He is the first of my sons to bite, and he loves doing it! He will grab any one that frustrates him and tries to bit them.
Luckily for me Liam loves to eat. He will eat all kinds of peppers, fruits, potatoes, casseroles, etc. So long as it is not baby food and it must have flavor. He loves bananas, mandarin oranges, green beans, lentils, chick peas, peas, corn, pasta, pintos, etc.
He has the tiniest butt and can still wear size 2 diapers however I have him in 3s just so he doesn't wet the bed at night.
Liam still has to take Miralax to keep him regular. He gets constipated so easily and its some thing I hope he out grows as he ages. Other than that he is doing super as far as his issue he had at birth.
I think he is going through separation anxiety because he will not let me out of his sight. He wont play without me or do much of any thing if I am not in his sights. He will cry crawling after me until I hold him. He is a little Mama's boy but he sure loves his Dada and Gamma. He loves to see people smile and works at getting their attention at the store. Which isn't hard to do!
I have been working with Liam on identifying body parts. So far he has ear down really good and even tries to say it when he points to it. He recognized nose today and we talked about the eyes and mouth.
His all time favorite game is peek-a-boo. It's so cute! Jaden and Jonah would never play peek-a-boo with me as babies.
Overall he is doing outstanding!
