Pictures at last!

Sorry for the hiatus from posting. Life has just been crazy. But, alas, here are some pictures:


Charlie has gotten really into "hats" lately. This "hat" is a really a bowl.












My mom tells me that my younger brother, Josh, used to put lids in his mouth like this when he was a baby.











We went to Brookside Gardens with our friends to see the train display. Charlie and Jeff had such a great time watching all the trains. It was quite a nice display






















Charlie's favorite part was eating the rocks.




























We metroed down to see the National Christmas Tree and it was FREEZING! Poor little Charlie was about frozen still by the time we were done despite the multiple layers and quilt. Poor little guy. It sure was fun though.

































Charlie's first picture with Santa Claus!














Charlie and Mimi in their Christmas hats.









We went to the Festival of Lights at the Washington D.C. LDS Temple. It's always so beautifully done. The creches from around the world are really nice too.












Charlie kept a lot of the guests entertained when he started licking the windows.






















Some days Ben has preschool and he leaves while I'm babysitting. When this happens Eli and Charlie like to watch the whole production out the window. I think it's so cute and I can't help but think how soon enough (too soon for me!) it'll be little Charlie heading off to preschool...




Charlie has reestablished his love with the bouncy seat. He now gets in it backwards and bounces like crazy. I'm just waiting for it to tip over one of these days.
