Liam Thinks He Can Fly.....

He says if he stretches his arms out he can fly - especially well if he jumps off something first.

He also says that stretching his hands and fingers out as far as they can go, helps him fly better.

Hmmm not sure if his confidence in flying is such a good thing..... luckily for us he can't climb onto the roof yet!

Who would have thought a trip to the ER would be so much fun....

Ewan and I were at the hospital last night and it was such a funny night.

He was in for asthma and although he had improved once we arrived there (always the way!), he still had to have a boost of ventolin and some prednisone. For anyone who doesn't know ventolin - it makes your heart rate go up and can make you hyper - Ewan had 3 doses over 30 mins and was bouncing off the walls by the end of that. We had to stay in for 2 hours afterwards for observation and Ewan was hilarious! He was giggling uncontrollably, squealing and jumping around on the bed. I was talking to him about different things to pass the time - we talked about what it would be like if the hospital was made of Lego - he said he would make it with all red Lego. Funniest though was when I asked him what we should do today. He replied that he wanted to "Just hang around....... naked". I asked him if there was anything else he wanted to do and he said "No, just hang around naked, with no clothes on" - just in case I didn't get it the first time! So funny - especially because he is not really into being naked so I don't know why he came up with that.

Being so giggly and happy he got lots of attention from the nurses trying to make him laugh more. They loved it and I think he quite enjoyed it too.
