fifth and sixth week of life in pictures

An adorable first born + a picture happy new mom = too many pictures to post

Our poor children, who haven't joined us yet, probably won't have pictures of every moment of their first year. Lucky Charlie. Good thing he doesn't mind the camera in his face....yet.

Here is a summary of Charlie's past couple of weeks.

Ready to meet all of mom's old co-workers/salon friends.

The large picture is my favorite! Sean sings a little chant while rubbing his head, and Charlie smiles and coos each time. I wonder what he really thinks of us?

We have found that Charlie enjoys sitting in his bumbo. His first day in it was spent watching me fold clothes and dad filling out paperwork for employment possibilities. He has such great head/neck control.

He is lasting longer in his swing, but still unsure of it. When I put him in it I may have 25 minutes to get something done.

Charlie loves being naked. He still has his stubborn umbilical cord-- he may go to kindergarten with it. We're hoping it lets go soon, so that we can give him regular baths.

Dad's FAVORITE thing-- cuddling Charlie

Trying to get a little more sleep in. Dad was sneaky.

And yes, I am still learning with our new camera and editing tricks. I wish I could edit my double-chin away in the last photo, but oh well. I still like it.

This post definitely had grandparents in mind!
