Charlie is Two

Once upon a time, there was an infant named Charlie. Charlie was a big baby. I mean, he was big. Check it out.


He was also a very happy baby. And he slept through the night at 6 weeks old! He was pretty much the easiest baby to take care of ever.



Charlie grew bigger and stronger, sitting up, crawling and walking ahead of schedule. The boy loves to move! One day he also discovered he loved the camera.






About three weeks ago, Charlie turned two. I know it's cliche, but the time really has gone by so fast. We had a little birthday party at home for our Charlie Tuna. We attempted to make cupcakes look like tuna cans for his party. I don't know how successful we were, but it was pretty fun. Josh made the wrappers on Photoshop. I think they turned out pretty cute.




Charlie seemed to enjoy his party. He got to try to burn himself on his candles; he got to try to unwrap his presents, only to have Kate and Alek get completely impatient and open them for him; he got a new book to eat, I mean, read; and he got to make a mess of himself eating a cupcake. All in all, a good night.



Charlie is a light in our family. He is adored by his big brother and sister and he thinks they're pretty great, too. Josh and I feel blessed to have this sweet little angel in our lives and look forward to many more birthday celebrations for our Tuna.
