Coming Up on 15 Months!

Greetings!

Liam Brendan is going to be 15 months on November 2nd - so hard to believe! He took some first steps (3-4) back on Friday 10/7 at Grammy and Grandpa Skellys' house. Then the entire following week he grew more bold and tried making his way between furniture - this past Sunday he walked across the living room on his own (Uncle Jonathan and Auntie Carolee got to witness it with Jon Jr. and Joanna). He is still quite content crawling though, we think it will be another week before he'll be on to walking exclusively. Last night we were dancing in the living room and he was walking all over. 

Auntie Heather returned to Cambodia on Wednesday, 10/12 - it was a bitter sweet goodbye - we so loved having her here while she finished up some mediation/mentoring studies and enjoyed some time for homeleave. She traveled with us to Wisconsin for our cousin's wedding, Blairesville and Hiawassee. During her stay we were shocked to see Liam pick his biting habit back up after her encouragement! Two Saturdays ago Liam and I were playing on the bed in our room and Liam crawled behind me and bit my thigh - twice - and hard!OUCH!!!! 

Some milestones: Liam weighed 27.6 pounds as of 10/24 and was 32.5 inches long as of yesterday! He knows so many words, but chooses not to speak as much as he enjoys pointing objects out...lots of objects...

Enjoy some pictures below from Roswell Area Park, the Atlanta Zoo, family time, the lake house, NY/NJ, Terrill Mill Park with Gramy and Grampa Skelly...
