Liam has been very interested in Shaun the Sheep lately. We don’t watch it every day, but it’s nice to have a relaxing afternoon upstair every now an then.

It was another day of watching The LEGO Movie and another day of playing with Legos.
Liam really wanted to watch The LEGO Movie today which also prompted him to want to pull out all his old LEGO Movie Legos.
Liam really wanted play outside today. The grass was freshly cut and it was fairly mild today so we were able to pull out the pool for a bit this evening.
Today, Liam and Dad tried to learn a new board game. What really happened was Liam just played with the board pieces until dinner.
Well we joined the gym today. I’m pretty happy that we finally did it. The best part is that Liam loved the kids area. I really thought that was going to be a struggle with him, but he happily stayed there while we went on our tour. That really helped to clear a major hurdle for getting to the gym. I hope it continues. Now I need to get my workout schedule together so that I have a plan of action for getting in shape!
There are times when you can capture a great moment and it’s 100% genuine. And then there are times when you have to recreate or modify the moment. Today (and almost every day for the past few weeks) Liam has enjoyed “blaster-ing” the bad guys. I told him, “that’s great! Guess what? The camera is a bad guy!!” And you know what? He blasted my camera just the way I wanted him to and got a great shot.
Today was a good day. We spent the morning at the Carytown Watermelon Festival where is wasn’t actually melting the sun hot. Then we actually convinced Liam to go to the movies to see Shaun the Sheep, which was quite good I have to say. But before we made it to the movies, I got some of the best news in my professional career. I found out today that one of the photos I submitted in the national monthly Bella Baby contest actually won 1st place!! Out of 188 submissions I won. I can’t believe it. I was so excited about it that I almost forgot to take my photo for today.
