Char's Bday

A few more One Year pics

These were a week later, she did a little better.

Picture Day!

Thursday we took Char for her birthday pics. She was pretty nervouse about sitting on a big white space all by herself so we didn't get many smiles. She loosened up a bit when they brought out the big teddy bear. Here are a few of our faves...

Yummm... Chocolate!

Charlotte was being very sneaky tonight. She was being very quiet digging through my purse but we didn't mind because it gave us both time to eat in peace. However, Charlotte was also having something to eat. She found a tiny Hershey's Miniature candy bar in my purse left over from Halloween. By the time we figured out what she was doing it was too late. She had a mouth full of Chocolate.

On the move!

Charlotte took her first steps all by herself yesterday!!! She teased me the first time by leaning on Chris to where I couldn't tell but a little while later she took several steps without any help. She just saw something she wanted and went after it without even thinking. It was pretty impressive. She's got exactly two weeks before her first birthday so maybe she'll actually be walking by then.
And No, we do not have the camera on constantly so we weren't able to get any pictures:(

Pictures in the Park

Here are a few pics from yesterday. We desperately tried to get a nice picture of all three of us but it was difficult with the sun in our eyes, wind in our hair, and positioning the camera so we could use the self timer!

Halloween 2008

Charlotte didn't really like her costume, she pretty much became catatonic as soon as we put her in it. It was so pitiful but so darn cute.

I Passed!!

It's been a long 18 months but I finally passed all four sections of the CPA exam. When I signed up I never intended it to take this long - especially bc my credits start to expire after 18 months, but I had a few interruptions (deployments, a baby, a move, etc.) which I think are pretty good excuses for taking so long. Anyway, it's done and now I just wait for more paperwork. Thanks to everyone who helped me through it and put up with my constant need to study. It finally paid off and now I can enjoy life again!
Maybe I can keep up with this blog better now that I have more time. We'll see what gets done this weekend.

Woo Pig Sooie!!

Char loves her Hot Pockets!

Here it is!

Alright, so here's our little blog. I'm probably not going to be very good at posting anything but pictures of Charlotte but that's what most people want to see anyway, right?
