boys will be boys

Our little guy is 14 1/2 months and is all boy. He loves to "dink around" with everything he shouldn't- remotes, phones, cords, outlets- and make messes. I pick up toys, cups and plates and spoons from "Liam's" drawer, and books at least 16 times a day. Liam definitely has a lot of energy. Check out this cute video:

Hay Wedding Day
Troon, Scotland (May 9-16)

Liam's first flight was surprisingly pretty easy. He didn't get too agitated by having to sit in his car seat for 8 hours at a time. The on-demand videos were a huge help. He loved to watch Nemo, even though there wasn't any sound (ever try to put headphones on a 1 year old?). We had a great time, but a vacation with a toddler is definitely not as relaxing as we are used to. Nana, Grandpa and Sharon were all great helpers.

We packed a lot of fun into the short time we were there. We spent an afternoon in Troon checking out the shops and the park near the beach. Niall and Emily arranged a day trip by bus to Edinburgh where we toured the Royal Yacht Britannia, had lunch at the City Chambers, and visited Edinburgh Castle.

Nana, Sharon and I took the ferry to the Isle of Arran while Phil, Dan and the guys played golf.

The wedding was absolutely fabulous. Emily was gorgeous, the food was delicious and the dance was a blast.

Thankfully Liam is a good little traveler as we hope to take many more fun trips with him in the future.
