It's been 9 month since the day Charlie graced us with his presence, 

and we decided to celebrate with a ham and mashed potatoes! 

It was almost impossible to get both boys to look at the camera at the same time, so here's the best I could do! 

 We are truly blessed with great friends who don't mind acting as family on holidays,

and here they are enjoying a little bit of 'green' on their plates!

Charlie is a GREAT crawler and is standing up with the help of furniture all over the house! He's repeating sounds and giggles that his brother makes! Still not a tooth, but plenty of drool to remind us one's on the way! His big trick for the month has been putting toys into baskets or blocks into slots. His hands are pretty steady and I forget how little he is when he plays like such a BIG boy! Food has been fun for him, he's a big fan of feeding himself! I'll have to get the camera dirty next month and share how that's going! Spring is here and we're ready for the outdoors!
