Thursday:
Liam woke up last night in the middle of the night sounding very afraid. I went to meet him in his room and he was half asleep almost shaking. I tried to figure out what was wrong and then decided that the best thing to do was scoop him up and bring him in bed with me. I did and all night he slept cuddled up close to me. It was sweet, even considering the cramp in the arm he laid on, and in the morning, around 7:00 he returned on his own to his bed.
When we got up, we had breakfast and then started laundry. I hung it out on the line today since it's so hot and I have a lot of loads to do and want to get the whole ordeal done as soon as possible. Liam wanted to play in his sand box, but after I begged and desperately pleaded him to hand me clothes to help me hang them he postponed the sandbox playing till we were done. He's such a great kid and all the while would keep repeating, "Mommy needs help. I'm helping Mommy."
When I was done, Annabelle and I went inside and Liam stayed out back to play in his sandbox and in the dirt. He became very dirty and then I bathed him and since his hair was wet, decided to cut his hair. I'm glad I did since we are taking his three year pictures tomorrow morning. Today he even let me use the electric clippers for the edging of his hair. He also wanted to help sweep up all the hair, which was also awesome of him.
For lunch, we were having leftovers from last night, which Liam was not having. The only way I could get him to eat was to let him eat out of my food, and give him bites that had no morsel of bell pepper, onion or cilantro. What a pain, but he ate, and he won't be starving when he wakes.
