The latest...

2 1/2 weeks old. I was trying to take a pic of his shirt that says "Here Comes Trouble"
Carson tried to take some pics of our little Charlie-bear in the fall leaves but he was too sleepy
I love how expressive he is in this picture, just thinking about life! :)
And waving at Carson... don't you just want to squeeze him!!!!!!!
Charlie and I made our first road trip this past weekend for my sister-in-law's baby shower! He did so well on the car trip there and back to Marshall and slept the whole time. (3 hours) What a trooper! This is Laura with her mom, Carolyn, and my mom at the shower. It turned out to be a beautiful shower and she got lots of great gifts. It was great to see my family!!
Here I am with Mrs. Renee' at the shower. I grew up with her boys but she was my mentor in high school and it is always a joy to see her sweet face when I'm home.
Carson's (paternal) grandparents came to visit their first great grandchild!! Mom A and Papa couldnt' get enough of him. Mom A's father was also named Charlie. :)
My cousin, Kevin, and his girlfriend had to come love on our little man too. Shelby was so good with him... I think she needs to move to FW and be our nanny!!
Here he is sleeping on his changing pad at my parents' house, 3 1/2 weeks old. What's funny is that he sleeps like I do with one leg hiked up. For all of you mom's out there, DON'T WORRY!!! He doesn't sleep on his tummy if I'm not watching him or at night... he sleeps on his sides or back. He was doing a little tummy time and it just wore him out!!

In case you were wondering where Carson was while we were in Marshall... he went hunting with my Papa (dad) in Kansas. No pics to show for it... sorry :)

Charlie's first Halloween


He put his own hand here!

His shirt here says it all!

Charlie's first Halloween was pretty low key. We hung out together watching football and just enjoyed a lazy Saturday!! That night some of our friends came over to hang out and help us hand out candy to the trick-or-treaters. I worked at the hospital the past 3 years so it was fun to see all the cute kids in their costumes this year and apparently we live in a popular neighborhood for trick-or-treaters... we gave out two 5 lb bags of candy! The dentists love us this year :)

Our little pumpkin
Charlie didn't want to take pictures... but here he is with Jack as Jack Sparrow!!

More pics of little Charlie!

Charlie was on his right side in my belly almost my whole pregnancy and here is a video clip proving that he still loves to lay on his right side.


Here is a little slideshow of pictures from Charlie's first week of life. He did have his days and nights confused, but now he's sleeping a more regular schedule! YEAH! Of course, we took tons of pics so here are some of the best:


My favorite picture from his first week of life... I caught him smiling in his sleep!! :) Isn't he just precious??
