Birthday dinner

We decided to go to Cracker Barrel for Liam's birthday dinner. Liam loved it! He had some dumplings, green beans, macaroni and cheesy potatoes followed up with a sundae. He ate a ton!

I just love this pic! His expression cracks me up. If you click on this picture and look at it closely, you'll see a tiny red spot on his eye. Poor baby popped a blood vessel coughing or sneezing. We called his doctor to make sure they didn't need to see him and the nurse assured us that it looks worse than it is. It seems to be getting better by the minute.

Liam finally figured out that crayons weren't for eating and that they make some pretty cool marks when you put them on the table.

He was so proud of himself for coloring that he had to clap, but he wouldn't let go of his crayon!

After dinner we headed to the mall for a few gifts and to see Santa. Liam was wonderful while we waited in line. As soon as I handed him over to the big man in red, he started screaming and didn't stop until we turned a corner and Santa was no longer in sight. We're going to give it another try this weekend...maybe we'll catch Liam when he's in one of his more adventurous moods. Ha!!!
