Here’s a clip of Charlotte zooming around the house with her ‘pusher’ device. She’s only on her knee’s but she’s keen to walk. Starting to get a bit frustrated!

Charlotte is almost 11 months old, she’s been excellent. Melissa has gone back to work so Charlotte is in day care for three days a week, she seems to be doing well with the exception of the drop in sleep she was getting during the day.

Melissa has been busy organising her first birthday which is coming around pretty quickly!

She’s also crawling now!

3 Days!

I spent 3 days alone with Charlotte who is now almost 8 months old, while Melissa went inter-state for a work conference. Phew! My longest stint with her alone. It went well, she is so much fun!

We had a few outings during the 3 days to mix things up a little and not be so bored at home.

fun stuff

weeee!

Charlotte has passed 5 months and is growing fast. She’s been experimenting with her squeels and talking. So cute!

Here’s a pic Melissa took with her iPhone:

Happy Bubba

Yeah yeah I know I haven’t blogged for ages, but well I get so carried away with hanging out with CJ (one of many of Charlotte’s nick names!) all day I forget about blogging.

CJ is now 19 weeks old. Can you believe it! Time just goes so fast. She has changed so much in that time, and grown. CJ is now wearing double zero clothes (already!).

I have done quite a bit of clothes shopping for her. Most of the stuff we were given (as hand me downs) were the wrong season (not much winter stuff, or at least that’s my justification for shopping so much). Doesn’t she look just adorable!

CJ is smiling all the time now, which is just so special (yeah I had a cry the first time she flashed me). And singing, well that’s what I call it. Babbling away to herself and anyone else that may appear to be listening. She babbled all around spotlight today. Quite entertaining to the old ladies in there buying their wool.

CJ is rolling onto her side all the time now. She gets almost all the way to her tummy, put isn’t sure what to do with her arm so gets stuck. She still isn’t a fan of tummy time, although she is starting to work on the knee bend with her butt jacked up in the air. She has no idea what to do with her arms but hey she will get there eventually.

CJ is starting to hold on to the bottle when we feed her. I have some handles that can be attached to the bottles and she loves to hang on and feed herself. I don’t think she realises yet that she is feeding herself, she lets go and the bottle falls out and she wonders why? hehehehe
