Liam's words and swimming

It's been a while since we've blogged anything, but it's because we were both very busy at work. Willem is still crazy busy and travelling in Germany at the moment. He's had the best wine tasting experience ever. Bought some '71's that I can't wait to taste.

Liam has been saying a few words lately: "hello", "taa" (star & there), "baa" (ball & bal) and he says "more", but not sure if he knows what it means, but he always says it while he's eating. Maybe I should give him "more" credit:)

He had his 2nd swimming lessons of the season today and enjoyed the water a lot. We had a pretty hot day today. He is not very keen on getting his ears wet, but doesn't seem to mind water in his face. He was also dunk 3 times today and seemed pretty fine with it.

Boarding @ Kirkwood

We are sitting in Kagan and Irem's condo looking out at the snow at the base of Kirkwood ski resort. We came up on Friday morning and was snowboarding by 11am. Willem and Mandy swapped a jacket so that we could both board on the same ticket. This was Liam's first serious interaction with snow and he is not impressed! Too cold mom and dad! We had him on the sled, but after he fell off twice into the cold snow that was the end of the ride. This was the big Sudoku weekend with most people playing and Willem writing a program to solve the puzzle - so far it solves the asy ones but cannot do the hard ones. Also had lots of wine as always.
