Tidbits

Not too much new for 2009. Charlies's getting back into his groove, although he most emphatically did NOT want to go to school that first day back. And who can blame him? I didn't much feel like going to work myself.

Our friend Tanisha had a baby in October, which has kept her absent from our usual playdates. One Saturday we all convened at her house in Durham. I love this picture of James reading to the kids, but especially love that Charlie felt it necessary to rub his head. A nonverbal thanks for the story, perhaps?



As you can see, Charlie's hair is getting kind of insane, so much so that we have started calling him a scruffy hippy. When he was with Grandma & Grandpa, he decided that he wanted a ponytail, so he could be a horse. This is cute in and of itself, but also a nice preview of what he might look like with a haircut.





Charlie's been wanting to take pictures with the camera lately, which typically results in lots of pictures of my nose (which will not be featured here). Durng a tutorial, I took this one of Charlie, which is very GQ Toddler.



Charlie also loves us to shoot video of him, and then wants to watch it over and over again. (My cousin used to do the same thing - back in the days of VCRs, he would watch his "Ryan tapes.") Here's a little sampling of his most recent video performance, complete with vocal stylings:



His reaction to seeing the video - quite the Narcissus, eh?

LOL - I think the Lentil was relieved to finally go back to "school" after the holidays ... kind of like "finally - my routine is back!" that or all the cool toys they have at school -- not sure which ... :)
The C-man is too adorable -- with his crazy hippie hair or as he might look with a hair cut. :)
