A couple pictures from Aunt Lisa and Uncle Travis

These are from Christmas-time I believe. Isn't she well-mannered? :)

Guest photographer entry!

Charlotte's grandpa Mark wanted to make his mark on the blog with this guest photographer entry! If you think you have Charlotte pictures that may make the grade, feel free to email them for consideration

Mama and Baby's day off

Mama and Charlotte have had a couple of days together at home. She is playing hooky from daycare and I am taking a couple of days off from work at the clinic between rotations. Here are pictures of some of the fun things we did today.

First, Charlotte played with the big blue exercise ball. But then she let go and fell down. Here she is just after that incident...




But then I let her play with the vertical blinds in the living room, which she loves.

Then she was feeling better.

Charlotte got some valentine's cards in the mail from her great-grandma Florek and great-grandma Lois. Here she is "reading" them.

Grandma Cindy sent some Valentine's cookies to Daddy (they were addressed to Mama too, but we all know who they were really for). Charlotte is testing them out for Daddy.

Matt got me tulips for Valentine's day--aren't they beautiful?!

Charlotte's favorite toys

Here's just a few pictures of the star of our show. She is learning how to scoot around on her belly. If we leave her in one place and turn our backs on her, she ends up halfway across the room before we know it! She hasn't quite figured out how to put her knees up and crawl yet, but I have a feeling it won't be long.



Her new favorite thing to do is to dump out a whole basket full of toys. If we fill it up and put it next to her she will empty it out in a matter of seconds. Then she proceeds to play with each toy individually for a minute or two.


She also loves looking in mirrors. Here she is in the hallway where we put a mirror so she could watch herself in the Johnny Jump Up. She really loves that other baby!

Charlotte's great-grandma Rose Ann knit her a sweater and a blanket this winter. The sweater is for when she is older, but I couldn't resist putting it on her for a picture!
