My Little Man is ONE!!!

Happy First Birthday Liam!!!

I can't believe it, but my sweet baby turned one today... I don't know where the time has gone, and I certainly haven't been a great blogger in the last year - so much has changed, in so many ways!  He is an amazing blessing and such a happy boy (and you wouldn't know it, but he is sick and drippy in this picture)...  Honestly, every day he makes me smile and makes my heart melt - he is so sweet and kind and is getting such a neat personality!

None of us can imagine life without him!

It is so funny how different #2 is... we don't have anything major planned for him from a party perspective - just a small cookout with friends and my parents.  Which honestly, even sounds like a lot right now because we've all been sick for the last week!  But thankfully it is an easy group of folks...

Next week we are beginning some demo/construction on our house that should take about 10 days - I can't wait for it to start and then FINISH so I can get our lives back into place!  I am hoping to use it as some motivation to clean out those rooms and get rid of all that extra "stuff" we have a tendancy to accumulate.  We are knocking down part of a wall in the family room to connect it more to the kitchen (open it up), moving a door, adding a window and a built-in bookcase, and getting new counters, floors, and appliances in the kitchen (and bath/mudroom & porch too).  Fun stuff!
