Charlie!

My dad, Kody and brother-in-law Dave went camping last week so Michelle and Charlie came to play for 6 days and we had a lot of fun getting to know Charlie. What can I say, he's happy, healthy & incredibly peaceful. Which basically means he had nothing in common with my children who were fighting sinus infections, experiencing fun teething bipolar behaviors, & who are generally a little more spastic in general. I felt like every time one of my kids would go into freak mode Charlie would just stare at them and this expression of confusion would come over him like: "where am I?"  Just the same, we had a good time and are looking forward to seeing him again soon!

All-smiles at the mall  (I wish I could say the same for my kids who were strapped into their strollers going crazy--no, I didn't get a picture of that).
Maggie loved having Aunt Shell & Charlie here b/c it meant that they stayed in my room and I slept on the trundle bed in her room. I have a feeling she's going to be really into slumber parties later.  Here she is getting the last of her energy out for the evening by jumping on the trundle bed and singing "On top of spaghetti!"

You are too funny with the, "fun teething bipolar behaviors, & who are generally a little more spastic in general" comment. :)
