My Dancin' Man

New Blog Feature!

Just wanted to let you know you can now follow my Twitter updates via my blog. For those of you who have no idea what I'm talking about- look to the right of this post. See the section titled "Tweet tweet..."? These are quick little updates that I create on my phone throughout the day, sometimes with pictures. Its sort of like a mini blog, which is probably why I have not been blogging as frequently. :) You should be able to read my updates and click the link when there is a picture to see some cute little pic of Charlie, or whatever I chose to "tweet" about today.

If you're a twitter-er yourself, let me know!

To Grandmother's House We Went!

Charlie and I had a great time last week, spending about six days with my family! There was no shortage of balls to throw, bananas to eat, and "new" toys to play with! Charlie was in heaven! And it was a veeeeery nice break for me- I even got to spend Friday night and all day Saturday in Austin with one of my best girlfriends, sans-Charlie, all thanks to Grandma!

While we were there, it seemed like Charlie's vocabulary quadrupled basically overnight! I'm slowly trying to get all of his words on video to post here just so I can have it recorded- but now he can say the following words: ball, bird, dog, car, duck, dada, mommy, bye-bye, and bubble. Oh and I almost forgot, his favorite word "no" often spoken repetitively while wagging his finger. Hmmm... wonder where he learned that? He has also been heard possibly saying hello, quack, nana, grandma, pop, papi, choo-choo, flower, and banana. Like most of you really wanted to read all of those, but I know there are certain Grandparents out there that care. :) And now for more pictures!

The Lazy Blogger

I've been meaning to post a blog about our weekend visit with my old college roommates, but visiting with my family, chasing around Charlie, and now a pesky virus have prevented me from doing it. Tonight I saw that one of my roommates already did all the work for me and created a great post about the weekend on her blog! Thanks Lacey! :) Here's the link:

We had a great weekend and I'm so thankful for good friends!

Look Alike

I was always convinced Charlie looked just like me, until I found this picture of Paul (below) when he was about Charlie's age...

That crazy hair of his that curls up on the sides? Courtesy of me of course...
Just thought I'd share... who do you think he looks the most like?
