photobooth friday

June (maybe July) 2007. Charlie's first solo shoot with mama.

We did a naked weight on Charlie earlier this week and he weighed in at 22.5 lbs (he'll be eight months tomorrow). He out grew his infant seat about a month ago and I now have him in a rear-facing toddler car seat though he is really tall and I know I'll have to switch him to a forward facing car seat long before his first birthday. A couple of eight month tidbits: Charlie army crawls like a pro and is working on climbing the stairs from the family room to the kitchen. He loves to pull himself up using the toy basket or the ottoman for leverage but isn't very stable once he gets up (he usually doesn't make it to his feet just hangs out on his knees). He loves to play with the stuffed monkey that hangs on his crib, his Kindermusik rattle, and whatever George is playing with at the moment. No teeth yet.

I like his big budah belly in the last pic. Very cute, the both of you!

What a hunk of man. I love that "little" dude.

I like his big belly too. He has an expression of "why is my mom holding me up in front of this machine?"

He is such a sweet baby boy...(and weighs .5 lb less than Ruby)!

So cute! I love how you take the kids to the photobooth. It is such a cute idea!

I can't believe how big he is. He will be a little man next time I see him.

My little Charlie is a relaxed and happy boy, and such a chunk to hold.

Sounds like our boys are on the same path for sure! Micah is just about 22lbs as well and a little over 30inches. So funny, because Jonah is only 26.5lbs and 34inche--but 21 months older!!

Micah can army crawl and roll with the best of them. He gets up on his hands and knees, but can't figure out what to do next. Big brother shows him, but he hasn't quite caught on. Micah has 2 bottom teeth and I think we have top teeth entering now. It's amazing to watch the boys grow together!

Take care of your guys!
