The First Year Files - 3 Months!

Charlie turned 3 months old on September 21!  I know he's already 3.5 months old and I'm just getting around to posting, but cut me some slack.  I went back to work on September 13 and things around here have been busy...to say the least.  Cy has been an awesome dad from the start, but he is getting some additional hands-on "Dad" time now that we are both working full time.  And by "hands on", I mean hands on a blow out by himself.  

Look at this kid...you wouldn't even know he's managed to rock a blow out every other day this week.  

And even though I'm back to work, we make sure to get in a ton of good family time during his bedtime routine.  You'll see that I have a weakness for footed pajamas.

We wanted to be sure and take pictures to document Charlie at 3 months, so Cy and I had a mini photo session.  You try to corral two dogs and a baby that doesn't sit up on his own and let us know how your pictures turn out.  We took 228...here are the ones we'll share.

As you know, Charlie is Cy's "mini-me".  I was even more convinced the other day while Charlie was chilling in his chair as I ate some breakfast.  See below for additional evidence...apparently smiling with ones mouth open is a genetic trait.

And finally, as you can tell, Charlie digs the Bumbo chair.

I was sitting in the office at our house typing this blog entry when our neighbors, Jen and Sam were walking to get their mail.  Sam is 7 weeks older than Charlie and I literally laughed out loud at how cute she looked tonight rocking her shades and Raygun onesie.  Her shirt says, "Iowans: the few, the proud, the extremely attractive."  Our other awesome neighbor, Kate, got it for her.  She picked one up for Charlie, too that you'll see in a future post!  

Until next time!
