Charlie: 8 Months


Baby Charlie,
You have become such a sweet baby boy in the last month. Everyone comments on how happy you are at any given moment. You smile at anyone and everyone. Your smiles make my day, but those same smiles make all those other people we encounter throughout the day happy too! You love to go see other people and haven't experienced any stranger anxiety as of yet.
You love having your babysitters come to the house or going to daycare at the gym, because of all the other little kids to play with...you are already giving me "the look" when I come to pick you up. It's like your saying, "5 more minutes...please...pretty please?!"
You still love being outside and because we've had the most fabulous January, we get our dose of vitamin D daily.
You started crawling on New Years day and we can't seem to slow you down. You crawl, climb, & fall more times then we can count. You had your first major fall, which resulted in a big knot and bruise on your forehead. At this rate, we've got many more bruises to come...but keep exploring baby boy.
You've had a growth spurt, growing another inch and weighing in at 17 pounds. You love your food!
We've had so much fun watching you grow bigger, smarter and stronger. It has been our favorite month so far!
