Grayson ~ January Photos

Grayson, Liam and I did a special class called Tuesday's Child every Friday from 9:30-12 for 3 months.  We learned so much as the weeks went by and they finally graduated on February 1st.  They made hats for their special graduation.  Grayson has been doing i9 indoor soccer every Saturday with some of his friends from school.  He loves it!  Poor Liam has to be 4 to play so he stands by the sidelines with his gear wishing he could play.  

Grayson is so sweet with Liam.  He tries to help me when Liam is not behaving.  He will say things to Liam that he has heard me say to the boys.  He has also become a great negotiator (with us and with Liam).  Grayson is turning into such a sweet, caring, smart little guy.  He has quite an obsession with technology...whether it's his iPad or Nintendo switch.  His older friend, Paxton, showed him how to play games on his iPad while we were in the Grand Cayman in November.

These boys are such little angels.  We love them beyond words.  How did we get so lucky to be their parents.  They have such a special bond, although most of the time Grayson is annoyed that Liam is copying him.  We keep telling him that's because Liam thinks he's so cool and wants to be just like him.  It's amazing what a little echo we have - no matter what Grayson says, Liam repeats it.  I know they will be the best of friends and really appreciate how much he looks up to him.

Liam had fun decorating his super hero cape.  Daddy was supposed to be in Pittsburgh from Monday - Wednesday, but got stuck until Friday afternoon.  We had fun playing while Daddy was away (nanny was gone and boys did not have school), but we definitely couldn't wait for him to come home!  Liam and Grayson graduated from Tuesdays Child on February 1st.  He decorated a hat for his graduation.  We learned so much from our 3 months there (every Friday from 9:30-12.) 

Liam is obsessed with his Batman raincoat and rain boots.  If he could wear it every day he would.  Liam went to Fiona's birthday party and had the best time - he is definitely girl crazy.  (pictures of him and Fiona at her birthday party) 

Liam has a great vocabulary, but has a few words that he has created his own way of saying it...he says some of the cutest things...

growken for broken
lellow for yellow
neaky for stinky
cyber for spider

He is so affectionate and loves to give a million kisses. He literally will give you so many kisses from your head to your toes.  He loves pretend play especially with dinosaurs and super heroes or cops (he gets the bad guys).  

When Liam was little he could not say Grayson so he made up his own nickname for him...Googie.  We thought it was the sweetest thing and both Grayson and Liam would actually call each other Googie.  Recently Liam has switched to calling him Grayson, which is so sad for us because it means our little boy is growing up.  It's funny because Grayson actually told Liam he wished he would call him Googie forever.

Mommy & Daddy Night - Tao

We had a fun date night at Tao in Chicago.  We met up with our friends, the Knights (Amanda & Dave) and the Sergi's (Joe & Jen) for dinner and drinks.  We had a fun night hanging out with amazing friends.  







Valentine's Day Photo Shoot ~ Grayson & Liam

The boys did a mini photo shoot for Valentine's Day.  They had a great time posing for the pictures and you really can see their personalities shining through in each picture.  They have such a special bond, although some days we wonder when they will truly realize the built in best friend and how lucky they are to have each other.  Until then Daddy and Mommy can play referee for those crazy moments of brotherly love.
