Breakfast

Liam & Tim this morning:
(including a rough translation of Liam's gestures and squawking)

Liam: oh, I want that Daddy; oh OH OH OH OH I REALLY WANT THAT DADDY THAT THAT THAT THAT THAAAAT!!!!!

Tim (unsure of what THAT is) gives Liam a sippy cup of water.
Liam knocks it away.

Liam: no THAT THAT THAT THAT THAT LIKE YOU HAVE IN YOUR HANDS!!!!!

Katie: He wants an open cup like you.

Tim gets Liam a juice glass with milk, so he can be just like daddy.
Liam takes a sip and throws a fit.

Liam: NOOOOO - it's COLD MILK!!! Who drinks cold milk?? I don't drink cold milk. HEYYYY - YOU TOOK MY GLASS AWAY!!

Katie: He doesn't like cold milk. He wants warm milk. Or water.

Tim replaces the milk with water, but won't let Liam hold the glass. Another fit.

Liam: BUT I CAN DO IT MYSELF! And when you do it you have to stop EVERY TIME YOU WANT TO FEED YOURSELF. JUST GIVE ME THE GLASS.

Tim gives Liam a plastic juice glass with water.

Finally, a happy baby, dripping wet, gagging on too much water.
