Liam is 8 months old

Here's a picture of Liam from last night.

He's going through a tough time, trying so hard to crawl, and all he can do is go backwards.

Liam's favorite activities this month are eating chunks (pieces of banana, zwieback, etc), playing peek-a-boo, and opening and shutting the doors on his "busy box."

I took him out for lunch with me today, and we met my friend Matt at Gigi's. When we got inside I realized that Liam was missing a slipper. He looked pretty funny all wrapped in his winter gear, with 5 little bare toes sticking out. He was great in the restaurant, and Matt and I had a nice chat.
