4 Months

Charles is 4 Months Old

Charlie is so much fun. He lets us know how he feels and is a good communicator with his smiles, coos, ahhs, sad faces and distinctive cries. He loves his oball rattle toy (he has a strong grasp) that helps keep him calm and entertains him. Charlie stands well on his legs with support. He can roll from his back to his sides and occasionally from his belly to his back. Charlie is getting very interested in us eating and has tried some avacado :) His big weigh-in for his 4 month appointment was 15lb 13.5oz (75th percentile). We have been hiking, walking, and trying to keep cool this HOT summer in Denver.

 Finally we made it to Kendal England for Jenny and Seth's wedding. We all had a wonderful time. Charlie was great for the traveling part. We stayed with Jenny's parents Anne and Jeff. They drove us around the Lake District and were basically wonderful to us. Jenny and Seth had a beautiful wedding. We were very happy we went and sad to leave.

Charlie's 1st Ohio Visit

We flew to Ohio to hang out with family for a few weeks. We had a good first plane experience with Charlie, he slept during the entire flight there and back. It was nice to hang out with my parents at their home for a couple of weeks. Erin flew in from Maine. We met Molly's Griffin (visiting from California) and Sarah's Ben (visiting from Delaware). We went to my cousin Lou's Graduation party and the next weekend had a family "sip and see" in honor of the new babies. Enjoyed many dinners with my Grandma at my parent's house. We met Jessica and Jay's, 2 week old Eli. We drove to the Cincinnati area to see Erin Orfe and met her 4 month old twins Elizabeth and Sarah.
