Weekend Away
We spent this past weekend in Tahoe. It was great to get away and have a weekend to relax in all the fresh air. I got in some great runs and Tom got to be lazy and hang out in the cabin so we were both happy! Liam was a little trooper and slept through both nights that we were up there. Unfortunately, he hasn’t taken that back home with us. I guess it was the fresh mountain air!
While we were there Liam started some new tricks. He sticks his tongue out of the side of his mouth and just bites down on it. I guess it doesn’t hurt him because he keeps doing it, but it makes him look like he is concentrating very hard when he combines it with his famous furrowed brow. When he doesn’t have the tongue and brow combo though, it just looks goofy. Either way, I love it. He is also bouncing to music now. He has always liked music, and almost needs it to get to sleep, but recently he has started rocking on his bum when it comes on. My boy’s got rythym.
We got some new toys around the house. Liam is now hanging out in his baby pool which he likes to no one’s surprise. He loves his baths so it was a no brainer that he would like hanging out in a warm pool. We also got a baby swing which he loves. He gets a huge grin every time he is in it. He isn’t super thrilled about the baby play yard that we got. He doesn’t like being confined. I told him that he needs to remember that he hates being behind bars and not to ever break the law because he wouldn’t fare well in jail! We need the play yard though because he is now crawling everywhere and getting into everything. The video with the dog bone is an illustration of his favorite toy. Don’t worry, it was a brand new bone.
He has also started shaking his head “no” at everything. I guess he has heard it so much that he is starting to understand what it means. Hopefully with this new gate to keep him confined a bit, he won’t hear it so often!
Just a side note. I finally took Tom to Costa Vida for our date night. I have been meaning to get him there ever since I learned that we have one in Roseville. It is the closest thing to Cafe Rio ( the only thing that I insanely miss from UT) and it was AMAZING! I think Tom is hooked, of course how could he not be? The stuff is like edible heroin. One taste and you are addicted. Yummy!

Just chillin in style

Are you kidding me with those eyes!? The drool is pretty awesome too!

There's the tongue

This is what pure genius looks like

The obligatory family photo op. The boys look so happy
