Happy 1st Birthday, Charlie!

Charlie turned 1 today! It has been a wonderful year and I am so blessed with two beautiful boys. It seems like yesterday that I was in the hospital ready to meet him and now he has been here for an entire year. Charlie took two steps last night going from the couch to the ottoman. He really seems to have no interest in walking, because he can get there faster by crawling or someone is always there to carry him around! Charlie is such a good eater. Today when I picked him up from his babysitter, he was eating celery. He will eat almost anything that you give him and he will eat as much as he possibly can! Charlie loves to dance. If he hears music, he is dancing. He says Wow, Look, Mama, Dada, and he also says Wandon. His Landon is unclear; however, you can tell that is exactly what he is saying. He will call Landon and start looking for him. He also loves to point. He points at what he wants and begs until you give it to him. If he doesn't get what he wants, he will do his face plant as we like to call it. He will crawl really fast and bury his face preferably in the carpet if he is near it.

Mrs. Mandy made Charlie a giant cupcake. He has the best babysitter in the world.

Ready to open presents

"Wook!" (Look) said Charlie.

Ready for cake

Happy birthday to you!

Charlie decided to dive into his cupcake head first rather than taking a bite using his fingers. Yummy!


Play time after the bath of course!
He seems to think his new race track is a seat for him.

Charlie is just adorable. I can't believe he is 1!

The "face plant" may be a little brother thing. Carter does that too :).

I can't believe you're one already. You are such a big boy and talking so good! So proud of you for taking two steps!

Love you!
