A month ago....

We had a 3mo. celebration and I wanted to post again to share the pictures I have with you all. I haven't taken any new ones because sadly, my camera broke! I guess, looking at the bright side, this will give me the opportunity to catch up with the pictures I do have. I haven't posted lately because we have been having lots of issues that deserve my full attention...please keep Charlie and me in your thoughts and prayers.

On a lighter note for his 3mo. celebration about a month ago (can't believe he's already4mo!) John was here, and so were Charlie's godparents!! Charlie is soooo lucky to have the godparents that he does (I'm lucky to have them to) for many reasons, one being they have an awesome camera and love taking pics of Charlie! They were the ones that got the lovely pictures of the day he was born. Anyway, since they were here I have plenty of AWESOME pics to share from that day.

In celebration of his 3mo. and John's birthday too, we had a cake and the Dotts even brought some presents, including the ever helpful bumbo (i don't care what anyone else says about it).

Enough of me blabbering? gabbing? O well, enough of me talking on and on... with no further adu.....


This is my favorite picture EVER!! thanks karen and greg....

I don't care what they say..the bumbo is great....(ever since we got it, everytime I put him in it he poops, I think he's potty training himself!!) That kind of looks like the start of a poop face to me..
Charlie's godparents came and we got a family pose...


it was, of course, a joint birthday celebration so we had to get a picture with the bday boys!..

We also got a picture with the ever so wonderful godmama Karen...

And the equally wonderful godfather Greg..

Then we got some cute poses that look so great and almost like professional pictures..thanks to the wonderful camera Karen and Greg brought..




I haven't really talked about the mei tai (the thing that I am able to wear Charlie in) but no time like the present! It is a wonderful baby wearing device, that Charlie loves and is soothed so much by that he is known to fall into a deep and wonderful sleep (the closeness to mama might help a bit)....

I am now on the hunt for a camera, till then you will get to see some old pictures that I haven't been able to put up quite yet!

CHARLIE IS 4MO. OLD!!! AHHHH...

love till next post,
Sandra


Charlie says hi.....

Dear, Dear, Enrique....

Charlie has grown so much and been doing so many new, and cute things I wanted to share more recent photos. I still have a few photos left from our NC trip but I will find some other time to share those. It's way more important for you to see how much Charlie is changing everyday!


Also, it's very important you all meet Enrique...Charlie's favorite companion! I got Enrique so Charlie could have a friend he could relate to and share the mexican heritage with...
The boy now smiles for pictures!!!!!!!!!!! He also is official cool because he's got a hoody!!


His shirt says "mommy's nuts about me!" He's such a big boy sitting up on the couch with his big boy pants on!! He's wearing big boy shoes too!! (note the long sleeves, summer is over!)


He's such a big boy doing big boy things..he has started to roll over and in the picture you see he's also started batting things!

He's getting soooo big!! there you have it!

love till next time,
Sandra

Babies and pregnant folks!

I'm still really trying to catch up, I didn't realize just how trigger happy (with the camera) I was in North Carolina!! Here are some more, not the rest, but some more very awesome N.C. moments...

While we were in NC we visited one of Susans friends, one who I happen to adore for many reasons, MEGAN!!
It's taken me so long to catch up Megan is no longer pregnant!! But while she was pregnant she and Charlie got to meet and it doesn't look like Charlie minds the big belly at all!!!

A close up to point out that he is thoroughly enjoying the pregnant lady..

A very cute Ana (Megan's daughter), a pregnant Megan, and a serious Charlie...I wonder what he's thinking about Ana....

So I figured i'd stick this one in now since Megan baby wears as well...ignore that girls tired face and focus on the cute baby..

I think I don't have to many left and will be able to FINALLY be caught up!!? I hope so...I might not get caught up in time before I have devote all my attention to getting the house ready to have our Fall Festival Enrichment party for my La Leche League, which before I knew what was happening, I volunteered my house for!! I have high hopes for all of it though...

love and hugs,
Sandra

Uncles, Cousins...It's all relative!

I feel like catching you all up is taking forever so, I don't think I'll put so much detail in this post as the last...they are kind of self explanatory anyway!


James is playing peek a boo with me...
My turn to hold the cousins...
I posted this one because the other one didn't have us all looking at the camera...
this is my cousin krystles daughter breyanna....
we are coming to the last of the pictures so this is just a random one that i thought was cute because this is the towel James used when he was a little baby...

like i said, there aren't to many pics left to share so hopefully I will get the last few up in the next couple days and be able to start posting more recent pics, like the ones from our 3mo. bash we had for Charlie!!

love to all,
~Sandra
