Charlie's cooing on the little screen!

He laughed for the first time at 5:50 pm.

What's better,

He laughs when his dad kisses him under his ears.

David has sometimes called our dog Mabel Jealous.

I wonder why.

 

This photo was taken when Charlie was telling me that,
since it is hard for him to talk on the phone, he wanted me
to put a picture on the blog and give his grandma a big
"Happy Birthday" from him.

Charlie says, "I love my Mama 'T'."

Personally I believe Charlie
is quite photogenic, However there
are some photos where his facial
expression is not portrait quality.
For instance, sometimes you get
the "rage" face:

Other times it is difficult to ascribe one felling
to his expression, like in this example.

Charlie and Mabel bonding

definite progress on the dog bonding front.

 

Charlie is getting better at sitting up.

unfortunately,
gravity has not yet been mastered

 

Charlie's feelings are often written right across his face.
Sometimes he is uncertain:

Sometimes he is a little dubious about you:

And sometimes just straight happy:

 

I think Charlie is trying
to do his best impersonation
of Michael Bloomberg.
Can you see it?

 

This is how I get (or do not get) school work done.

 

He is not much help with the laundry.

 

This is the stare down I get.

It means "You can lead a horse to water,
but you can't make him drink."
Or more literally, "I don't care
how many times you nudge me in the mouth
with that bottle; I am done."

 

A few bath shots.

Before...

and after.

Ladies Man.
(Notice the self assurance in the stare;
Just like his daddy.)
