Liam has become a talking machine in the past few weeks. It seems like he progressed to single words to conversations overnight. He loves to talk to the phone especially to Daddy. We have to wrestle the phone away from him. It is also getting difficult to tell Liam and Evan apart when they are calling me. Their voices sound almost identical, and with Liam's words getting clearer by the day, they will be playing tricks on me in no time. In this video clip, he is telling Greg that he went to swimming lessons several times. Until I watched the video clip, I didn't realize that he gave Greg a kiss before hanging up the phone. Too cute!

About Me
The Origins of The Brothers YZ
The title for this blogspot was inspired by one of my favorite movies, The Brothers McMullen, and my oldest son's decision to add YZ to our last name. It seemed an apt title, as the focus of this blogspot is my two half-Irish boys, Evan and Liam.
