A Marvelous March!

Well, we have been home for three weeks now. Charlie has been one busy little boy! He has had visitors almost every day since he has been home. Family and friends have been stopping by to love on Charlie on a regular basis. Auntie Pooh (Lisa) and Uncle Andy even made special trips from out of town to come meet him. We are so happy to share him with everyone!



In addition to all the visits, Charlie also helped us celebrate our 3rd anniversary on March 19th. Nick and I went out to dinner, and my parents watched Charlie. He was very well behaved for his first babysitting adventure.



St. Patrick's Day and Easter were pretty fun for mommy. I enjoyed dressing Charlie in green to honor his Irish roots and loved making his first Easter basket. Charlie slept through most of the festivities, but I am sure that will change as the years go by.

The little guy had his first bath recently. He hates being naked, so it wasn't as relaxing as I had anticipated. He screamed at the top of his lungs until we wrapped him in the towel. Hopefully this will get better with time.


We had a two week check up at the pediatrician's office. We were excited to learn that Charlie had gained 12 ounces since leaving the hospital and has grown half an inch in length. He continues to eat well, and I can see his cheeks filling out more and more every day. We won't go back to the doctor until he is eight weeks old.
