With a little help from my friends...

Charlie takes a few steps with his locomotive.

Baptism, Teeth, and Pools

Charlie has been a busy little guy the last few weeks. He had his baptism on January 24th. He was such a ham-- he did such a good job during the whole thing!

Then on that following Wednesday I noticed he has two of his front bottom teeth that were starting to pop through- they have broken through and are almost fully up now!!!

He's still doing really well sitting - he's starting to pull himself up into a sitting position-- not quite able to yet, but he tries. He's also still trying to crawl-- he rolls or scoots with his feet pushed against the floor while on his back if he needs to get anywhere-- he'll get up on his knees, but then just roll over.

Eating is going very well.. so far he seems to like everything-- he doesn't really like the rice cereal, but if you mix the fruit or veggies in with it, he's fine. but he hasn't spit anything out yet or really shown a strong dislike for anything in particular.

I took Charlie swimming today for the first time at the municipal pool. He loved it. Never cried, even when I dunked him! I think we have a little fish on our hands!

Here are some photos of the past few weeks.

A day in the life of

Here are some photos of Charlie doing some of his daily activities. He's developing quite the personality. He's a very happy little boy. He's got the best little giggle.

Charlie's First Christmas and then some..

Charlie had a great Christmas.. thanks to everyone for the toys, clothes, etc. He's a very loved little boy! :)

Adam and I had a great holiday too. It was nice to spend time with Adam's family and also spend time together. With our schedules we don't get a lot of time together, but over the past two weeks we have! it's been nice.

Ok, so back to Charlie. He had his 6 month appointment last monday. He is 21 lbs 12 oz and 27 in long. Still over the 100%. He had 5 shots poor little guy. He was a trouper though!

He is doing really well eating. So far his two favorite things are applesauce and carrots! Funny little guy.

He is laughing a lot and is becoming quite the little ham. Still no teeth, and he is still rolling instead of crawling..

He is sleeping through the night again!! We went through a rough patch there for awhile, but now we're back on schedule!

Enjoy the pictures.. :)

6 Months

Happy Holidays!! :)

Charlie is 6 months old now!!! I can't believe how quickly that went!!! :) Here are a few photos.

He is still kind of scooting.. he can't get very far- he moves his knees up and puts his head down and then gets stuck. He rolls to where he wants to go. I've seen him roll across the livingroom a few times :)


He can also sit up and play with toys now (see photo).

He is a very happy little boy. He loves to laugh!

We started him on solid foods.. He gets rice cereal or oatmeal and he's had sweet potatoes and peas.

I'll take some pictures during his first christmas and post them!! :)

Santa

Yesterday Charlie met Santa (and Mrs. Claus)

He did really good... not a single tear!

Here are some photos

1st Thanksgiving

Yesterday was Charlie's First Thanksgiving.
I got him dressed in the morning and he chilled out on the couch as I started making dinner.




Adrienne and Kenny came up from Denver for the day.

Today We put up the tree and Christmas Decorations. Charlie really liked the lights on the tree.


Charlie is starting to scoot! I'll have to get video of it and post it on here.

Tomorrow we're taking Charlie to see Santa. I'll post photos!
