One Year of Blogging

A year ago I started this blog as a way to keep in touch with friends we no longer see and to document our lives (b/c it flies by way too fast).  It all started with Charlie's first tooth at barely four months old.  Now he has 14 - the latest one popped up last week.  All we have left are two top pokey teeth and the two year molars.  He is a real trooper.

Now we have a talker and real go-getter on our hands.  We bought him some big grip crayons a while back and just started giving them to him.  Now he points to them and makes noises to get our attention.  Below are his first drawings on camera!!!!  We bought him some crayons for the bathtub, so that's the bathtub you see......best invention ever.  We don't have to worry about him coloring on just the paper!  And it washes off no problem.

We also bought some normal crayons too.  Today I thought he was pointing to my camera and I kept telling him we can't play with it (we never do!), but then he went and grabbed some paper......the crayons were in a closed cupboard above the camera.  I was pretty surprised he knew where they were as we had only gotten them out this morning.  Needless to say I went and got the crayons down for him to doodle with!!!!
