Charlie at 11 months

Charlie is a busy little guy!  He is into everything!  He loves the Roomba vacuum and the dog water bowl.  He climbs the stairs, pulls things out of the cabinet and fights diaper changes like you wouldn't believe!  He says: Mom, Dad and dog quite frequently.  He points to most things and says, "dog" which makes Claire and Allie laugh.  He conquered his fear of sand and water at the lake house in July and was crawling into the water like it was nothing.  Thankfully he is not as crazy with the hair pulling as he use to be!  He takes a morning and afternoon nap most of the time and sleeps through the night.  He is a good eater and loves strawberries and my oatmeal pancakes.  He loves to go on the swings at the park.  He has the bluest eyes and the cutest dimples!  He doesn't want to sit still for a second and has always been my little observer.  He is getting much better about going to other people and he really likes our neighbor Fred!  Charlie enjoys baths, though he doesn't take long ones!  Same goes for his meals, he eats quickly and then wants to get out!  He is decisive, curious, and a little impatient.  He is exhausting but so much fun!
