New Wheels

We got an awesome new stroller for Charlotte. Up until now we had a simple stroller which was just a frame for her car seat. We needed to upgrade to something that could handle rougher terrain. The answer was the Bob. I happily snagged this one on Ebay for a great price. As you can see she has some room to grow in to it! Charlotte really loves it. As soon as we put her in she gets all relaxed and content......and eventually falls a sleep. We are looking forward to many happy walks with Bob!

Happy Feet

Charlotte loves her feet. When given the choice between brightly colored toys hanging from her playmat, or fat, pink wiggly toes & feet, the latter always wins.

Happy Four Month Birthday, Charlotte!

A New Talent

Charlotte's newest thing is blowing raspberries. She does this morning, noon and night. It seems to entertain her quite a bit so I am all for it! My favorite is when I am driving around in the car and I hear her doing these is the back seat :)

We're Rollin'!!!

On Monday Charlotte decided that laying around on her back all the time just wasn't going to cut it. She needed a new perspective....so she rolled over to her tummy! Now whenever we put her on her back she almost immediately rolls over. I've had to rescue her from a few precarious positions. She seems to be pretty happy with her new talent!

Shiny, Happy Baby

A few cute pictures of Charlotte after her bath....enjoy!

4th of July

We spent the 4th of July at a BBQ at the Mariotti's house (thanks for having us Nick, Nikki and Sophia!). It was great to see all our friends and get all the new babies together. As you can see, the whole family was in red, white and blue :)

New mommies share a little glass of wine while the babies sleep!

We were so happy to meet the newest baby, Ella! She was as sweet as can be, sleeping almost the entire time. Congrats to Dave and Angelica on a beautiful baby girl!

Ohio, part 2

We all had a great time at Grandma Bab's house! Kelley and Babs set up a nice little nursery for Charlotte, complete with pack n' play, rocker, toys and books! Charlotte and I loved it! We all just hung out and played lots of Wii with Dallas and Pete.

Kisses from Grandma!
Grandma Babs enjoyed every second with her granddaughter.....holding her, playing with her, reading to her!
We also went to visit Chuck's high school friend, Brendan Murphy. Brendan's wife, Nicki, just had a little boy, Graeden. It was great to see the whole Murphy family.....Brendan, Nicki, Riley, Jameson, and Graeden.

Here's Brendan and Graeden, Chuck and Charlotte.

Ohio

Charlotte took her first road trip to Ohio for the Ramsay Family Reunion (Chuck's Dad's family) and to visit Grandma Babs. The long car ride went really good! Charlotte slept quite a bit and just chatted in the back seat. Amelia was also back there to entertain her. We spent two nights in Youngstown with Aunt Sherry and Uncle Fred and then headed to Columbus to stay with Grandma Babs.

The Ramsay Family Reunion was great! We were happy to see so many of our aunts, uncles, and cousins and to introduce Charlotte to her family. Charlotte also met her great-grandma Nancy!! I was bad and did not take as many pictures as I should have, but here are a few.......
