Sweet Little Liam

Daddy and his boys...

Little Boys at Play!

**Disclaimer: we do wear bike helmets in this family, just not on this one particular occasion for some reason.  Don't worry, we were very careful and he didn't ride for long.  

A bath, and more visitors for Liam

Somebody had his first bath a couple of days ago!  

I needed an extra hand so mom helped me with the little guy.  Giving a baby a bath is one of the scarier jobs there are, so back up was needed.  Plus, I got to take some pictures!

He did so well, only a little bit of wailing.

Look at that face!  He's thinking, "mom!  You're embarrassing me, already!"

Little Liam also had some more visitors this week, including Laura and Russell's newest addition, Bug!  Such a cute Schnoodle bug, and Raughley was enamored.   

Baby Mine

Baby mine, don't you cry

Baby mine, dry your eyes.

Rest your head, close to my heart, never to part, baby of mine.

Little one, when you play, 

Don't you mind what you say.

Let those eyes sparkle and shine, never a tear, baby of mine.

If they knew sweet little you, they'd end up loving you too.

All those people who scold you, what they'd give just for the right to hold you.

 From your head, to your toes, 

You're not much goodness knows.

But you're so precious to me, 

Cute as can be, Baby of Mine.

William's Birthday

We had a get together at mom and dad's for William's 25th birthday, but it ended up being more of a "Raughley open's all the presents" party.  

Look how fast he is at ripping that paper!  

I don't think R really got it that the gifts weren't for him... the fun seems to be in the act of tearing the paper off.  

I wonder who had more fun?
