Grounded

I am sneaking on here...finally!  Just so you know I have been grounded from the computer the last 2 months because apparently I keep waking up at night. My Mom said that because I keep her up at night she doesn't have time to supervise my computer time.  If I sleep tonight I get to start using the computer again. Hopefully tomorrow I will update you on EVERYTHING!  I hope I can stay asleep all night :)  Can't wait to catch up.

9 Months

Now that I'm 9 months old I can do so much more. I get to eat real food, mmmm.  That baby stuff is for, well babies.  I am now mobile. If I want something I can usually get to it.

I know, I know, it's not your traditonal crawl, but I'm working at it.  I might just walk before I figure out this crawling thing.  It's too much work. 

I can also play patty cake now,and the where's Charlie game.  I love to play that!  I'm really good at turning the pages when I read books, but I only like the same 6 books.  If you try to trick me and pick a different one, I will not pay attention.  What can I say, I like what I like.  Maybe I'm a routine kinda guy? I love my ABC book and counting books, The Five Little Lady Bugs, Are You Ticklish?, All The Ways I Love You, and my Curious George book. 

Hope to see everyone soon.  Love Charlie.

Happy Easter!

It's holiday bib time!  I can't wait until I'm  a 1 year old and I don't have to do these stupid pictures for all these "first holidays."  I'm not going to ever wear them again, even if all my other bibs are dirty. 

Today I went to church with Mom and Aunt Julie.  One of the more exciting things I did this Easter was hang out with my Uncle Geno.  He even took a picture with me today! 

Here are more pictures of an Easter outfit my Mom made me wear.  Someday I will be old enough to pick out my own clothes, I hope that day is soon because this one makes me look like such a baby.  I'm almost 9 months old now, I'm not a baby.  But I guess "Somebunny loves me."  Mom said somebunny is better than nobunny. 

These are all my Easter baskets.  One from both Grandparents, my Sing-a-jig from Aunt MJ, and then two from the Easter Bunny.  My Aunt Carrie gave me a book too. I don't want to sound spoiled because I love all my Easter baskets and am very thankful, but everyone got me something but my parents.  Did they forget about me?

And lastly...watch out I'm almost on the move.  Here are some videos of me making progess.  I'm trying really hard to get this crawling thing down, I hope by the end of the week I will have figured it out. 

Goodnight, hope you had a great Easter.

Bibs

These bibs are awesome.  I don't know what I want to be when I grow up...a doctor or a referee.  Doctor, well they make money, and referee, they get to watch sports all day!  Dad would love if I was a ref. 

Oh April...Where have you gone?

I can't believe April has gone so fast.  I have been a busy little bee.  Between traveling and catching colds, I have even managed to get 2 teeth!  Pretty soon I'm going to be eating food like Mom and Dad.  It looks pretty good and I keep staring at it, but everytime Mom tries to feed me things like sweet potatoes or bananas I don't like it.  That real food tastes and feels so different.  I'm going to stick to my baby food forever, although I do like those little apple cinnamon puff things. 

Here is my busy life-

Playing as usual.  I love to play in just my diaper.  I feel so free and fun!

Mom had a conference in Kearney so I got to go along.  This is right before we left in my shorts and sandals.  I got to hang out with Dad most days while Mom was busy.  We went to visit my Great Grandma Dorothy and Great Grandma TD.  It was a lot of fun.  I was ready to come home after a few days though.

Slumber Party at the hotel.

Hangin' with Dad

As much as I hate getting these teeth in I love the cold rings that I get to play with.  Mom says they make my hands like ice cubes and my cheekers red.

This is my morning breakfast.  I have my new outfit on from Grandma & Grandpa Peterson.  Thanks!

I love talking, ahhhhhhh.  All I need is a diaper, my mouth, and a toy and my life is great! 

Hopefully the next time you see me I am crawling around.  I have this rocking thing down now I just need to learn, one in front of the other.  It won't be long...then watch out Mom & Dad I'm going to rule the house. 

Moving Along

I only have a quick second then I have to go take a nap, but here is me yesterday trying to get to my laptop.  I can't quite get it yet, but soon I will be crawling around!  Look closely I even am learning to do push ups. 
I'll post more pictures later. 

8 Month...Wowzer.

Happy 8 months to me!  First I want to thank my parents, they are wonderful and have managed to keep me thriving for 8 whole months. Amazing!  To honor my wonderful 8 months of life I have included a few pictures, imagine that.  I actually have some pretty big news now that I am 8 months.

Here's a throw back pic of my birthday!  I've really changed, what's up with the brown hair?

This is the new way that my mom finds me sleeping.  She said she wanted me to get better at tummy time, I don't see the problem.  She always asks me, how did you get this way when you started on your back?  Like I know Mom, I'm sleeping, duh. 

 Macarena anyone?

Looks like I'm teething in this one...but good news...I have 1 tiny little tooth finally showing.  My Mom saw it today now that I am 8 months.  It's kinda sad but today I spent the whole day at home with Mom because I was sick, and Dad is out of town.  Fever, cough, congestion, and then on top of that this tooth.  Pretty miserable day for me, but nothing is better than cuddling with Mom when I am sick.  I think she likes it too.  I hope tomorrow is a better day. 

Have a good day, thanks for checking me out, I hope your last 8 months have been as good as mine!  Charlie
