Happy First Birthday Charlie

Dear sweet readers, I'm so excited, I just have to post...

Today is Charlie's first birthday.  We got home from the hospital yesterday, which was a fantastic surprise as we thought we'd be spending another night.  I'm awed that Charlie is healing so fast and so beautifully from his craniofacial surgery.  Today, he had a quiet, wonderful day of healing and giggling and smiling and sleeping and I just feel so flipping lucky to be his mama.  So, I'm getting mushy and I'm probably crossing the "I'm a blogger and I over-share" line... but Jesus, its been a great day.  Happy birthday to my wonder boy, Charlie.


One year ago today...




Oh dear Charlie... look how far you've come in just one year:

ONE MONTH

TWO MONTH
THREE MONTH
FOUR MONTH

FIVE MONTH

SIX MONTH

SEVEN MONTH

EIGHT MONTH

NINE MONTH

TEN MONTH

ELEVEN MONTH

ONE YEAR OLD - still swollen from craniofacial surgery


Thank you, dear readers, for letting my gush over my baby boy.
But can you blame me?  He's a dream boat.

    If you can't do that on a blog...I'm quitting.
    Those cheeks are made for smooching.
