Rolie Polie Olie

Charlie rolls, and rolls and rolls... everywhere!!! We put him down, and he is off... he will see something he wants, and roll right to it! He never wants to sit still anymore. I can only imagine what he is going to be like when he starts to crawl and walk!!

Happy Half Birthday Little Man!!!

Charlie is already 6 months old- time is really flying!!

He is a pretty happy little guy, but has his fussy periods!! We love his huge smile, dimples, and adorable giggles!!

He is so great with people, doesn't play strange, and smiles for everyone! His favourite person by far is his big sister Lily- she just has to be in the same room, or earshot, and he is all smiles!!

Charlie is all over the place now- we set him down and he starts to roll! He is also starting to sit up on his own, he topples easily, but is getting steadier every day!

Food wise he has quite the appetite... he nurses every 2-3hrs at night, and every 3-4 during the day (backwards, I know!). He also eats cereal, veggies and fruits twice a day. So far he has had rice cereal, oatmeal, sweet potatoes, butternut squash, carrots, pears, applesauce, bananas and mangoes! Some of them he has enjoyed- others, not so much! Overall he loves to eat!!

His 6 month appointment is next week, so I will update with his stats then!

In the meantime- here are some pictures to enjoy!!

Little man loves his toes!

First sippy cup... he likes to chew on it, but hasn't got much out of it yet!

He loves to be on the ground kicking and rolling!

All smiles in his car seat!

Wide eyed with Mommy

Reading a story with Lily and Daddy

Mmmm... Sweet potatoes

Fun with Lily, Travis & Taliyah!

Best Buds... Charlie & Travis

Playfit!!

We Love you Buddy!!!

Lily has Bieber Fever!!

Lately Lily has been crazy about Justin Bieber... it started when we were at my Grandparents one day and she danced to it with my little cousin... since then she wants to listen to him ALL the time! She dances and sings when his songs come on, and she notices every picture, at any distance, of him in the stores! She paused last week when they said he got his haircut on the TV, and talks about this now too!

Enjoy this video:

Happy Valentine's Day

We had a great Valentine's Day! A great dinner at home and a few small presents all around! Another bonus for us what that Lily stayed dry ALL day- no accidents!!

Lily started her day off at PreSchool with a little Valentine's Day party and some valentine's cards. The headband was also made at school!


I think Lily liked the Toy Story card from us more than her dancing dog and Dora book!
Charlie seemed to like his new clothes, lol

Dinner was tasty!

Lily made the Love Bug below for Daddy (with Kellie's help)

and made some fudge for him with Mommy's help:

and Finally... here are my attempts at some Valentine's photos... Lily decided to model, lol:

HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY!!!

Cereal Time!!

Charlie started rice cereal today... he loved it!! He ate it all, hardly spit any out and kept grabbing my hand to shove more in!. Cereal = Success!!!

Waiting for his food...

Not too sure with the first spoonful.
Mmmmm.... more please!

Hurry Mom!

Holding the spoon in there!

Snow, Snow, and more snow!!

We had a ton of snow here over the last few weeks... it meant a ton of shovelling, but also some outdoor fun... here are a few pics!

Pierced Ears!

Just over a month ago Lily started wearing clip on and press on earrings, she loved them, admired them in the mirror, and never touched them. She also started noticing earrings on other people and wanted some of her own! We had promised Lily's Ava that she could bring Lily to get them done, so we waited for her to return from vacation in Cuba and then we headed out to get them done!

Lily was nervous once we got her in the chair, but after some convincing (and some holding her down) she got them done! She chose small CZ flower earrings.

She loves her earring... she reminds us all the time to clean them, and she loves to show off her "Diamond Earrings".
