I know what I like

A good friend of mine put up a list of her child's likes and dislikes on her blog as a way to take a 'snapshot' of what life is like with her darling 3 year old. I thought it was a great idea and decided to do the same for Liam:



Liam likes:

-anything with wheels
-looking at how things are put together (i.e. screws, hinges, etc.)
-playing on his drum
-babies and little kids
-eating kleenex and paper
-ripping paper, books, magazines
-playing "no hands!" as he's standing (he props his belly against something and throws his hands up to make it look like he's standing on his own)
-cruising and walking and moving and crawling and climbing and diving and rolling
-kicky kicky kicky
-shaka shaka
-showing off his new signs: all-done, milk, byebye, hi
-talking
-cuddling with mama, giving mama kisses
-saying dada or adda or da!
-playing "where's baby?"
-bananas, cheerios, avacado, peas, waffles, oatmeal with cinnamon and applesauce, cheddar bunnies, puffs, yogurt, cheese, water, sweet potato, steak, chicken, ground beef, pears, melon
-cel phones
-ribbons, strings
-books and "reading" his books and teeny tiny books
-playing with others and playing by himself
-bathing and standing up in the tub
-playing with cups and tupperware and spoons
-playing "chase"
-his stroller and going for walks
-shopping (heh--that's my boy)
-mama's singing :)
-the gorilla song, the numbers rhumba, 5 little ducks, baby liam, michaud, tete epaules, rubber duckie, 5 little monkeys, over in the meadow
-blowing kisses
-sticking his finger in little holes
-pushing things around
-bottles
-the computer
-buttons to push
-the laundry basket--pushing it, throwing things into it, riding in it
-windows
-his jumping contraption
-pulling out and pushing in drawers
-chewing on shoes
-escaping
-knowing where everyone is and what they are doing
-having his picture taken
-exploring
-other kids' toys
-swings
-pulling glasses/sunglasses off your face
-being swooped, dropped, tossed, bounced, wrestled with
-crawling up stairs
-opening and closing cabinets


Liam doesn't like:

-being ignored or not paid attention to when it's clear he wants attention :)
-being shut out/closed doors
-carrots, beans, canned babyfood (unless it's fruity), tofu
-getting his diaper changed (unless he has something to play with)
-grass
-sand
-really normal nice looking people who apparently to him are scary
-vacuums
-the fruit at the bottom of fruit-on-the-bottom baby yogurt
-swimming at the pool -- I would like to say he likes it sometimes, but realistically I don't think he does. :(
-riding in the car when the car is stopped
-being strapped into something and unable to move around
-going back to sleep when he wakes up at night time
-missing out on really really fun things

That's our boy!!
:)
