Here Kitty Kitty

Charlie got a Kitty Cat. We are still deciding on an official name, but are leaning towards Recon. He is all black with green eyes and about the same size as Charlie. Charlie is as happy as one could ever be. He loves his kitty so much that the poor kitty will probably lose some weight in the next week or so as he is not able to stay in any one spot too long before his new best friend comes to play. Charlie is full of love, excitement, and plenty of hugs for "Recon" and when he needs to relax he simply uses the kitty for a pillow. He is so sweet. My favorite is when he claps his hands to summon the cat while saying his version of kitty which sounds more like a drawn out way of saying key. We are sure to have lots of wonderful memories with our new addition. Best of all, he will always be Charlie's first pet, and hold a special place in his heart. Lots of learning opportunities are and have been presented already with a pet. It may not be the sister I desire for Charlie but it is certainly somebody to entertain and play with the baby.

Christmas 2012

Charlie enjoyed another blessed Christmas this year! Here are a couple before and after shots of his success. So many wonderful stories and pics to follow.

November 2012

Just a few random pics. Charlie has been snuggling with his animals, which has made for a Where's the Baby I Spy... So cute! He also helped mama clean the bathroom since he helps me get ready everyday and personally destroys my bathroom. But I love it.

Halloween Trick-or-Treating

My little sack of Taters had so much fun visiting all his Grandmas and Grandpas on Halloween. He was a little unsure of the yard decorations at one house; he got to give candy out at another; and spent the rest of his night climbing and rearranging at the third. He was so exhausted that he fell asleep in the car on the way home. I think that proves a successful Halloween!

Love my pumpkins!

Just some cute pictures of Charlie enjoying his pumpkins. We carved the big one with cousins at Grandmas and picked the little pumpkins from Vala's Pumpkin Patch.

Just a little pizza with Oreos

To our surprise, Charlie has found his very own way to eat Oreos, with a slice of pizza. He is a twist open and eat only the inside type of guy if you can't see by the pictures. We should also note that he used the oven drawer to reach the Oreos and pizza box. Such a silly guy:) so independent!
