Our Life...

We welcomed Charlie into this world on May 8, 2011 and our lives have never been the same! Life could not be any better and we have been cherishing raising such a sweet little guy. We are blessed!

7 months

oh charlie, you are now closer to being a year old than being a newborn baby, i might cry :(
in the past month so much has happened, i really feel like you have developed and changed more this month than any other.  so, here's what's new with you:

* your favorite foods are now pears and oatmeal.  you are not fond of prunes, avocados, and peas, but we will keep trying :)  oh, and breastmilk is still number 1 with you, that makes mom happy!!

* your first tooth just poked out!  i felt it when i was feeding you and a couple of days later it surfaced, i cried (what's new?).

* crawling yet? no, but you are creeping and trying really hard to get around.  when i put a toy far from you will scoot to it if you have something to push against.

*  "da da da", this is your favorite thing to say!  you also can carry a pretty good tune.  it goes like this, "ahhhhhh"  in a dull, monotone voice.  dad and i love this sound :)

* gymboree is one of your favorite places.  you love playing with the kids and going down the slides on the sheepskin.  i am pretty sure you have also chewed every single bean bag there!  miss kristy loves when you go to her classes, she always says that you seem so happy and smile more than any other baby there.

* you hate (and i really mean hate) being left alone.  you will be in a perfectly good mood, and when dad or i walk out of the room for a second you immediately start crying.  we walk back in and you start smiling,  this scares daddy but makes mom feel pretty special. 

* you are NOT a night owl!  you are ready for bed around 6:30, yowsers!!!!!!!!  this makes doing anything in the evening with you a little difficult.  for example, we went to see christmas lights with you tonight and you slept the whole time because we didn't get there until 6:45.  oh well, maybe next year.

charlie, at 7 months dad and i love you more and more each day.  not sure how that is possible but it is.  you are a sweet and loving little boy.  you are such a little cuddler and i am cherishing each and every day i spend with you.  you make me the happiest mom, thank you.
