Who needs toys?

There really is no need for us to have toys in this house as Michelle can amuse herself for hours with simple household objects. These are a few of yesterdays events as Mom and Dad were sick and lazy all day long, :-(



We do feed her, really we do.



And then there was this mornings photo attempt...




We even managed to get Charlie's teeth:

Wednesday Accomplishments

Charlie has taken to having big events of the week occur on Wednesdays. Last week it was his tooth, I guess I should say teeth as there are two popping through. This week he mastered rolling from is back to stomach. He has been going the other way forever now but now he can do both. I guess this means I no longer have to go in to "flip him like a pancake" in the middle of the night.

So proud of himself.....

6 Months??

My "Charlie Bear" is getting SO big. I really want to cry (or is that because most days it seems as though that is all he does?). Seriously though, he is developing like crazy now. He even cut a tooth last Wednesday. After being away for the day I came home and let him chew on my finger as I usually do. I welped when he dug into me with his bottom tooth. I tried to get a picture of it but I was not that successful, we'll try again when it comes in more. Charlie does have his happy moments....


We were practicing for our Christmas cards, it is never to early is it?


Michelle is her own story. She is a counting fool now. We can't go anywhere without her screaming any number she sees. She is also very into airplanes. Everytime she hears one, or thinks she hears one even if it is the neighbors weedwacker, she says, "plane" and then often looks at who is with her and says "see it?".

Sleep????

Do I dare say Charlie is managing to finally sleep through the night? We have had almost a full week of 12 hour intervals. The key word being almost, he hit a rough patch at Nani's on Saturday and this morning he woke up at 4:30am but I reassigned Pooh to him, turned it on and he slept for another hour. Circumstances being as they are however, the phone rang at 5:15 and Michelle was up at 5:30, but I'm calling this progress.

Michelle is making progress in her own regard. She has officially mastered taking off her diaper.....


and now has a pair of sneakers that light up courtesy of her Dad...



This makes me so sad, I can't believe how big she is getting already. She does make me laugh on a daily basis as she is such the talker. She loves to count and some of the words she puts together amazes me. She loves her "Charleeey" and gives the poor guy constant hugs and kisses, however he laughs at her now which is just precious.
