Charlotte & Co.

I know I'm cute... but do you???

Aunt Sara is so funny!

Amanda finally held me! See, I'm not breakable!

Whenever I get bored with Mommy, Kristin
comes over to play with me! I LOVE her!

Charlotte's Dedication

Adam and I chose to have Charlotte dedicated this weekend.
We are so grateful that God has given her to us and we are
humbled by this incredible blessing. We hope and pray
that we will honor Him in the way that we parent her and
that she will grow to love Him and know Him personally!

Grandmum and Granddad

All of their grandkids

Our beautiful nieces and nephew

Thank you for coming to support us today and for your
commitment to help us raise Charlotte.

A special thanks to Todd and Kristin for coming to the
dedication and to Bella's birthday party!

Charlotte loves you all!

All my new tricks

Look everyone, I can wrinkle my nose!

No wait, I can do it better than that...

There. Do you see it? Do you see it?

Whew, that's hard work!

Oh, and I can grab things now too! Well, this is me
letting go of my parrot, but that's just because
Mommy just isn't fast enough with the camera.

For the finale...
I rolled over and Mommy caught
most of it on camera! Check it out!

ps - Please ignore my Mommy's baby voice,
she can't help it. Trust me, she's tries not to do it!

3 Months Old

Charlotte turned 3 months old this week! She is getting
so big so quickly, it breaks my heart every day!


I have come to like the idea of a growth bear, supposedly you
can buy such bears to place next to your child to watch her
outgrow the bear. I happen to think Charlotte's Harrods bear will
suffice, so he will now join her in the monthly photo shoot!

My pink room turned me pink too!

Wait, I'm already bigger than Harrod!

Chillin' with Harrod!

Litte Miss Busybody

Charlotte is a very active little baby.
She does not want to be cradled, she wants
to be held up, preferably looking out so she
can see what's going on at all times.
We are hoping to get some good use out of this
new toy... She's a little small for it still, so we
pad it with blankets to keep her upright.
She loves it!

Charlotte likes to have staring contests with the circus animals!

Trying to figure out how to get to the animals behind her.

It has been so fun to watch her look around and
reach for her new friends! She can turn around in it
now, but it takes a while. Her feet just reach the bottom.

Charlotte LOVES her Daddy!

Charlotte really loves her Daddy, and who can blame her!
He sings to her and reads to her and plays all sorts of games!
He is just really a lot of fun!!!

This is Charlotte when she's with her Mommy...
No, I'm kidding. She was smiling all afternoon but
as soon as I got the camera out, she became very
bored with me and disinterested! UNTIL...

Daddy came home from work!

All smiles for Daddy!

Pictures in the Park

After viewing hundreds of photos of Charlotte,
it became very obvious that we had hardly any
pictures of the three of us together. So...our very nice
and talented friend, Amanda, took pictures of us this week.
