Milestones & Visitors

We've had some exciting things going on at the Kershaw residence.  A couple of weeks ago, Charlie started double fisting it. :)  All of the sudden one day he was pulling his pie-pie (pacifier) out of his mouth with one hand & holding on to it with a toy in the other.  Ever since then, he's been keeping both hands full of whatever he can put in them!!

We've known for awhile that Kode likes Charlie but, he does have his jealous moments.  After all, he was the "first" baby around here.  But, last week I was sitting on the couch, reading a magazine and I looked on the floor where Charlie was playing & guess who had gone and gotten one of his own toys to play beside Charlie???!!!.....That's right, Kode!! :)  So, of course...I grabbed the camera and took pictures of this monumental moment! :)  To make this even better: Charlie has laughed out loud but, ONLY in his sleep, never while awake! While they were playing on the mat, Kode got up and started scratching Charlie's stomach, and the cutest little giggles started coming out of Charlie's mouth!!!  So, now he has been giggling away!!  (Don't worry, I didn't let Kode scratch Charlie's stomach very long & he was being gentle.)


Charlie is quite the little ham & flirt!! He is such a happy baby which we are very thankful for!! Here he is 'hamming it up'!!!


Last Sunday, may parents (Charlie's Gran & Gramps) came into town for a few days to visit.  It was nice to have them here.... Charlie liked having some different faces to look at & of course, he got LOTS of attention!!! We were sad to see them go but, hopefully they'll be back again soon!!
