Big Brother Liam

Liam has transitioned well into the role of big brother.  It is so encouraging to think that Liam was not only meant to be a big brother, but he was meant to be Lilly's big brother.  Liam has made things easier for me by helping out.  He has made life easier for Lilly too.  Things that used to stress Lilly out are easier, and almost enjoyable, thanks to Liam.  Liam's intelligence and vocabulary will also be helpful to Lilly as she makes up her developmental delay.

Lilly, who once hated water, is playing right along with Liam!

Liam is showing Lilly his playhouse.

Lilly's not too sure about the feel of sand, but Liam is doing a great job of showing her how to play in the sandbox.

Thrivent sent us a bouquet of flowers complete with balloons for Liam and Lilly.  Liam's says Big Brother.  He is very proud.

Liam wants to help feed Lilly, but she would rather feed herself.

Liam showed Lilly the 'right' way to color.

Lilly will now sit on Liam's lap (for a little bit).

Lilly's first wagon ride was made easier by having Liam talk and sing all the way to the park.

Lilly hates her car seat, so Liam decided to hold her hand, which made her quit crying.

I needed a couple things from the store, so I strapped Lilly in the baby carrier, and Liam pushed the cart, and put items in.  He even pushed the cart to the van and loaded the bag into the van.
