I am a little
"off-my-game"
this month.
Time has just gotten away from me.
I didn't even get this little guy's present
in the mail until yesterday.
Crazy ol' Nana-
I am pretty sure that is what
his mom & dad are saying.
Anyway,
Charlie was born after a
LONG LONG LABOR.
It was SO LONG that we were all getting scared.
All of a sudden- WHOOP-
they took him by C-Section.
He was a big boy and they would have had
to break his shoulders to deliver him via
the "normal route" and
I am gonna leave that thought
right there, thank you.
I could not find my folder with
his baby pictures in it.
So, I will just post these in no particular order.
He USED TO LOVE riding in his car seat.
At least most of the time he did.
However, here is
Mr. Pouty Pants
NOT LIKING HIS CAR SEAT ANYMORE!
As you can see, my daughter's sense of humor
is as warped as my own.
His big brother has loved him
since the day he was born.
And---
His big brother has loved him
since the day he was born.
We hoped, kinda like a puppy,
that he would grow into his feet.
He has entertained us in more ways than one.
Just give him a microphone!
Or some hay-
Or some leaves-and he is a happy boy.
(with an unearthly glow)
Sometimes he is a real stinker-
trust me~
Sometimes he is kinda spooky-
And now he has a wonderful little sister
to love on, too.
He is her best audience.
We miss being closer to him and his family...
now that they live several hours away...
but we know they are happy and that is
A GOOD THING.
That was a year ago.
This year Charlie started pre-school!
He wants to be a race car driver..
Please make SURE it is an ORANGE car!
So---Happy Birthday to our little guy that
is full of monkey shines during the day....
But is an angel baby when he is fast asleep.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY, CHARLIE!
You are growing up
WAY TOO FAST!
You'll be a
CAR HOP before we know it!
I do want you to know that the
name I dubbed him with when he was a baby
Charles-In-Charge
fits him perfectly!
Do I know how to call them, or what?
I will announce the magazine
winner tomorrow.
Gotta get a little hand here to grab a name!
ps. that means you can still
sign up HERE today!
It's Tuesday- so you all know where I am!
Listening to some war stories!!!

Happy Birthday to your little Charles! They grow too fast don't they! He and his brother and sister are all just as cute as can be!
Happy belated Birthday Wishes to him.
At this age, a date doesn't make too much difference, to them.
And if he gets a "late" present to open... What could be more fun???? Here he thought his birthday was over with. And it isn't!
He is soooo cute! Happy Birthday Charles in Charge!
Too cute!! Happy Birthday! :)
You sure have some beautiful grandchildren, Diana. Happy bday Charles in Charge!!
I don't remember riding in a car seat, but come to think of it I don't think my parents ever used one. One time my mom's friend and her son went with us to some event that required a bit of driving. Instead of taking two cars, we fit six people in a car that seats 5. Since I was the youngest I got stuck in the gap between the two front seats. Not only was that uncomfortable, it was extremley dangerous.
Birthday blessings to your handsome grand!
Oh, where has the time gone? He has gotten to be a big boy, way too fast! Happy Birthday sweet Charles in Charge!
Happy birthday sweet Charlie, he is a cutie. I know you are missing them all, since they moved. xo
Happy Birthday to Charlie - such a sweet looking boy.
No doubt those baby blue eyes are going to break a lot of hearts in the future. Your post was almost as adorable as he is.
Too cute!
Precious I tell you..just precious! There is something so very fun about little boys at four! What a blessing he is!
How precious! What a treasure he is.
What a beautiful little stinker and happy birthday to him - your daughter and her family are just beautiful too!
Sweet photo of him sleeping, I just love that.
Happy Birthday to Charlie!

Happy birthday! Oh my gosh he is so cute!! The frosted window had me laughing out loud. Better late than never :)
Happy Birthday Charlie, I wished you one on your mom's post yesterday, so it is just Nana who was late.
Well Diana stinker or not he is a beautiful child. Thank you for this heartfelt share, Happy Birthday sweet little boy.

Happy Birthday to Charlie! He is such a cutie. He looks just like his older brother. You can tell they are all related by their red hair too.
A good-looking family.
ADORABLE...makes me think of my boys when they were little. So sweet!
Such a little darling Diana.. Wish him a happy day for me and to keep smiling. That is one happy looking family!..Judy
Charles in charge is a cutie! Sheila
He is adorable, Diana...you are blessed!
He's so adorable....beautiful family !! Wish him a Happy Birthday for me..
Apparently, those car seats are not too comfortable. I finally asked my grands (the youngest of whom is StiLL in a booster seat) what the problem was and got an earful, including complaints about numb legs, tingling toes, and sore backsides.
I remember when this grand was three...my that year flew! Hope that he has a very happy year (aside from that carseat thing).
A BIG Happy Birthday to this adorable boy. What a precious family they are. Loved this post Diana. Have a great night. xo
How did he grow up so fast, Diana? Looks like he is full of energy and likes to entertain you all!
All of your grands are adorable! This little guy is growing up too fast...as they all do. Love the photos ~ precious memories!

Happy Birthday to Charles! You are one handsome young man!
Adorable pictures and words to go with them, Nana Diana!
He is so adorable! The skunk costume brought back memories to me as I had made one for my son when he was about 4.
He's a cutie pie. Pretty soon he'll outgrow that carseat and he'll be driving you around, Diana! xo ♥

His sweet face does not go with the name you chose for him but I know how that goes!!! He has the kind of face that you just want to bite (that is our saying around here for extreme cuteness!).
Aw, happy birthday to Charles-in-charge. What a cutie patootie! Love all the pictures. Some of them cracked me up. Too cute!!
Hugs
Cecilia
Well, he is certainly an adorable little boy!! Isn't it tough having them live hours away? My grandson lives 7.5 hrs away :-(
Charlie is a beautiful boy. I hope he had a fun birthday.
What a darling boy! Life slips by so quickly, doesn't it, it just seems like yesterday they were born, and then they just keep having birthdays! I know you miss them very much, and it must be hard to get used to them being a few hours away. Have a wonderful day Diana :)
A belated Happy Birthday to Charles in Charge, sweet little munchkin!
A very happy birthday to Charles! May be have many blessings throughout the year! Such a cute little boy!!!
You know, I LOVE his name and truly he reminds me of my own son when he was just a tot! Darling plus!

He really is a beautiful child! It's hard when they live a little distance away but I'm sure you spend all the time with him you possibly can.
