The Dawsons Visit!

Posted in General | No Comments »

My Aunt Kath and Uncle Ronnie from Bolton (near Manchester, UK) came to California for their 25th wedding anniversary. It was great to see them – they’re a lot of fun! Much wine and red meat was consumed. We had some interesting conversations and Liam was (mostly) all smiles. I think they had a good vacation- they even got to see dolphins at The Wedge, and experience a mild earthquake, which I don’t think they even felt! My cousins John, Dan and Tess should come visit next!!

Liam is fast approaching 5 months! He’s so much fun, he loves to play and be tickled and kissed! He’s still pretty high-maintenance, although he has been playing by himself more and more, especially in his activity center.
We’re still giving him new foods every 3 or 4 days. We’ve discovered he hates green foods (as most kids do I guess), loves squash and carrots, and isn’t quite sure about applesauce. Josh mashed up a banana for him and he loved that too. He still looks at our food, like he’s not fooled by the slop we’re giving him!
We’ve had to take Liam to the doctor several times because he just can’t shake this mild case of thrush, we’re on the third dose of Nystatin… But they did weigh him yesterday and he’s just shy of 17 pounds!
