A few more pic's of Charlie

It has been a fun time to watch Charlie grow and learn.  He already has a special response for getting up -- I can hold both his hands, and ask him "are you ready?", and he'll squeeze his neck (holding his head up), and ball up his legs, and I can roll him right up.  As soon as he's standing, he looks all around as if it's a new world.

The Nicholson Grandparent Visit

(From Mark)
My first entry in a while (sorry about that, and THANKS Dani for doing such a great job posting!). Since I'm headed to Las Vegas for a convention, I figured this might be a good time to do a little typing. My parents came to visit March 9-12. We had some warmer temperatures the week before, but rain came in and made the days more wet than us locals would prefer (actually, we'd prefer snow over the wet and cold, but that's another story). However, I think the temp's being in the 40's seemed more welcoming than that of the previous 20's and below we got in January and February. It was great to see them and to see them get to see Charlie, and visa-versa. Charlie was JUST at the point of interacting, and showed off with smiles, and even "talked" a little. It was a good visit on all accounts, and we're glad they were able to come visit. We look forward to the next time! Here's some pic's to enjoy.

He Just Keeps Getting Bigger

I know I'll probably be repeating those words for the rest of my life but I'm amazed at Charlie's growth! At his two month check up (March 5) he weighed in at 12 pounds, 15 ounces and was 24.5 inches tall. Yesterday, on our scale here at home, he weighed 14.5 pounds! He's a growing guy.

For a couple of days last week we took a little stay-cation. We went to Como Park on one particularly nice day we had a picnic lunch, walked around the lake, and took some photos. Unfortunately we waited just a smidge too long and have "getting tired Charlie" pictures instead of "Smiley Charlie" ones. Oh well!

**There are a few previous posts with video. It may look like a blank area but look just below for a small play button. We're trying to get some fun live action with Charlie. Enjoy!**

Happy St. Patrick's Day

We went to the St. Patrick's Day parade today in downtown St. Paul. It was a gorgeous day but the festivities wiped Charlie out! We're doing our best to enjoy the last couple of weeks before I return to work.

Talkin' It Up

We just can't get enough of him!
