How can you help?

Hi, I'm Liam and I have Kleefstra Syndrome. I live in Dickson, TN. My daddy is a Fire Fighter for the City of Dickson and I love first responders. I also love 3D Printing.

My friends at Wash 37055 and Sweet Charlotte supported me by wearing my shirts on Kleefstra Awareness Day and Wash 37055 donated $1 from every car wash. The Dickson Fire Department went purple for the month of September, wearing purple uniform shirts and hats as well as turning the exterior lights on the stations purple. The Dickson County Sheriff’s Office and, Dickson Police Department, Dickson County EMS and Dickson County EMA all wore purple bracelets.

We are also looking for people to help in any way they can with the building of my therapy room. We applied for a grant, but we didn't get it. We are looking to add on to our house and will need help finishing it out, with both materials as well as volunteers to help with the construction.

Happy Birthday Liam 🎉🎈🎂Today I turned "1" ! I can crawl (finally) I can pull up and move from couch to couch. I am 20.4 lbs and love to eat all foods. I finally had one tooth break thru but it still isn't of any use so mommy still makes me applesauce, peas and all my favorites. I love guacamole a lot!!! And fish ! Can't wait for fish and chips in England! I also love to wink and blow raspberries!!!!

I am 11 months old! Still have no teeth!!! But I am able to eat pretty much anything off mommy plate. (She shares better than Daddy) I can crawl finally but I throw a fit to show everyone I would rather not! I can pull myself up with your finger or if I'm by the couch. I love my walker and going around the kitchen. My new favorite food is French toast. But I love guacamole, chicken, salmon, sweet potatoes, refried beans, pasta, peas, and beans and toast! I drool a lot bc of these teeth.

I'm 10 months old and full of laughs!! I'm a little over 17lbs and more than 2 feet tall! I roll, scoot, rock, stand with help, (still don't crawl more than one hand) I love to jump, play peek a boo, love my Lego fire truck, fireman sam is my favorite show! I love floating in the bathtub just don't make me get out please! I am extremely ticklish! Love to play with my big sisters , love taking long naps with my daddy and my mommy tickles and plays peek a boo with me plus lets me jump on everything. I love all foods but peaches are gross and bananas I love but they make my tummy hurt so no more bananas for me. Sweet potatoes, peas, rice from the Thai restaurant , asparagus, squash you name it I like it so far. I love my thumb as most can see it's hard to take away from me! For the most part I'm happy and fun and love to be cuddled and hugged!  I'm 10 months old and full of laughs!! I'm a little over 17lbs and more than 2 feet tall!

I am 9 months old today..... I am a little over 17lbs. I can scoot around but don't care to crawl b/c I know my mom, dad, or sisters will pick me up if I reach for them. I love Fireman SAM so much that if mommy tries to talk to be I will do whatever too look around her to get back to my show! I love to stand and jump jump jump!!!! I love almost all food Cod, Salmon, Sweet Potatoes, Chicken, Asparagus, Peas, APPLESAUCE, pears, squash, zucchini, to name a few. I don't care for bananas or peaches but everything else mom has made is pretty good! I talk all the time and yes I say Duh duh duh..WHICH sounds like Dada so Daddy is so proud! I love blowing bubbles and I love my thumb especially when eating b/c it gets everywhere! Bath time is the best. I love to float on my back and listen to the water going into the tub . I still have NO TEETH. but it doesn't stop me from eating! Crazy how fast I am growing. I love being outside but also like to just cuddle and play on the floor with my toys or in my activity chair where I can bounce/jump. Jumping on the bed is really funny and I make everyone laugh. So far life is treating me good and I enjoy being spoiled rotten!  I am 9 months old today..... I am a little over 17lbs.
