I am a little
"off-my-game"
most of the time
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---
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-
but not nearly as spooky as I am
scrubbing greasy mouth marks
off frosted glass doors.....
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
It's Tuesday- so you all know where I am!
Listening to some war stories!!!
