Angel Baby

You're all familiar with our sweet angel baby, Charlie, yes?  See below for his 11 month picture.  Where he sat perfectly still and smiled for the camera.  What a good boy.


Here is what really happened:





Ok, Charlie.  Sit down so Daddy can take your picture.
 


 


The kid has no fear.  He just dove face first off the chair.  ALL BOY.  This is going to get interesting.  He loves his bath, so we thought we might get a great picture in there.  Charlie had different plans.





So we only have one month left of the "months" pictures.  Stayed tuned for what 12 might bring.  In other news, we like to keep it classy at our house.  So we tailgate.  In the garage.  Bet you wish you lived in our hood.




Yep, that's my son playing in the back of his Dad's truck.  Keeping it real.  Because that's how we roll.

And for posterity, I had to include this AWESOME picture from last week's eclipse.  If only you knew how many times I asked Cy to not look directly at the sun.  But he doesn't appear to be blind and we do have these pictures...so win-win.




 Until next time!

Cy, Meighan, Charlie, Lily and Bridget.

New pics of Charlie!

So I am a little behind, but really, are you surprised?  This feels like a win...April and May posts are practically back to back.  It's getting wild at our house with this kid on the move.  Charlie eats dog food? Check.  Charlie eats dirt?  Check.  Before you call DHS, come to my house.  See if you can catch him.

I was actually motivated to write this post because we just got pictures back from Charlie's recent photo session.  Check them out on Mindy Myers' Blog!

And in an effort to highlight the stark contrast between the pictures Mindy took and our own amateur work, see below for Charlie's latest "month" pictures:




My favorite new picture of Charlie and his Daddy playing.  


And finally, some confirmation that Cy's little mini me has a bit of his mom somewhere in there...you can't see it very well (bottom left), but we were sharing a giant chocolate muffin from Muffins with Mom at Charlie's school.  Look at the grin on his face! 



Until next time!
