Wrestling With Pilsener

Charlie had his 9 month check-up with the doctor today. He is as healthy as an ox, except for the cold he currently has. This is the first time he has ever been sick so we feel blessed for that. He is weighing in at 18 lbs and 12 oz, 28 inches long. SO, for now he will stay in his infant car seat watching the road pass him by.

We took some pictures of Dad, Charlie, and Pilsener wrestling and watching the superbowl a couple wkds ago. Charlie was still rooting for the Vikes - we didn't have the heart to tell him they didn't make it. And I swear this was the only time we have ever let Charlie tackle the dog! Pils didn't mind b/c Charlie wasn't pulling on his beard for once.


Charlie's new favorite things to do are waving to himself, clapping, saying dada, yayayaya, and of course mama. He gets very frustrated when mom and dad are having a conversation without him. He loves to walk up and down the hallway with help. Charlie is actually using the same method of movement that his father used - scooting on him rearend with one leg stuck underneath him. This brings back alot of memories for Charlie's Nama.

"Go Vikes!"

"Why do I get yelled at everytime I do this to Charlie?"

"Get off my back MAN!"
