It took us 2 years to get Liam, he’s been with us for 2 months, and in 2 days, he will be 2 years old!   I’m not sure if there’s any significance to all that, but it seemed too cool not to share.

I’m sure your next question is do we have any big birthday plans?   Well, actually, no we don’t.   We plan to keep this birthday kind of low-key.   I’m making cupcakes for his daycare class on Monday and they’ll have a small party for him.   At home, we’re having a cake and a small family get-together.   One of his birthday gifts from us is a little inflatable pool that we were hoping to setup today but rain is predicted to start any minute now and continue through tomorrow.   I guess that gift will have to wait.   But there’ll be plenty of hot Texas days to come for him to cool off in his pool.

I took Liam to have his first professional photo made this morning.   The photographer was quite impressed with how easy he was to photograph.   He smiled on cue and looked adorable in all the poses, so of course I had to buy most of them.   Once I get them back, maybe I can finally send out our adoption announcements.   I’ve been intending to that for several weeks now but I didn’t think any of my photographs were quite good enough to print.

Speaking of photos, in case you missed the post on our 2Dolphins blog, I’ll leave you with a photo of Liam taken on Earth Day:
