8 months of Awesome

Sweet Charlie

You are 8 months old already. But in all reality, you are 8.5months old since I am pretty far behind on this blog letter. Oops, you will understand once you have 3 kids and work.

You are so mobile. It is fun to watch you crawl, climb over things, pull up and scream when you get frustrated. The drama that is you has no words. I thought your brothers were dramatic but you take the cake for sure!

You are mostly eating table food. You will eat baby food some too, but not until after you have shoveled food into your trap with your hands. You cannot get enough.

You have been struggling with ear infections since you turned 6 months old. We just found out that it is time to see the ENT and get you tubes. You will be the youngest in the family to get them. You are following in big brothers foot steps.

You love love love sparkles and shine. My patent leather black shoes are your favorite thing to look at. And eat, but we do not let you. We are mean like that!  Accessories are a plenty in this house ;)

You have been playing and keeping up with Logan very well. You crawl after him, stand up beside him, play toys with him and clap/sing/dance all the live long day.

You are very interested in watching music videos on my lap top. You dance in place. Squeal in delight.

We love you more and more each day. You love to be held and cuddled. We do not mind at all (unless we are trying to cook, clean or go potty)!

I continue to be thankful to be your Mommy.  Logan loves you so much, he crashed your photo shoot ;)

Satruday's Top Five Laughs

If you have not started to link up with Melissa at The Mommyhood Chronicles for Saturday's Top 5 Laughs, then you are really missing out on all the funny!

5. I was spelling a word so that Logan did not understand me. It took me a minute to figure it out, since you know, spell check and all! Dominic looked at me and said "Mom, 10 years of college was not enough. I think you need to go back!"

4. Logan likes to talk to people on the phone. He wanted to talk to his Nana (my Mom) and so I called her and handed over the phone. He chatted with her for a long time. Each time I tried to get the phone back, he would run away "No, no Muma. I talk ah Nana. You go away." I came to find out that he was hanging up on my Mom and calling her back. 5 times. I did not even know he knew how to call someone on my phone.

3. Charlie has started to put her one leg out while she crawls. We call it her crab crawl. She is much slower when she crawls this way than normal crawling but she seems to now prefer it.

2. Pretty sure that I have the ONLY 2 year old boy that asks to go shopping. "Muma, I go Cosco (Costco)." "Muma, I go Tahget." "Muma, I go Gian Eagle."

1. Logan and Charlie played tea party for over an hour. (Logan actually continued to play after Charlie went to bed) It was adorable to watch Logan poor the tea straight from the pot into his mouth. Charlie eat the spoon and cup. Share star puffs together. "I playin tea pahtay wif Char Char." Charlie would squeal in delight.

We are having a LAZY SATURDAY at our house. And I cannot wait to get back to it. PJ's, Movies complete with popcorn, candy, pop and a whole day of nothingness but our couch! Hope you enjoy your day as much as we will ;)
