Charlie's First Year

fathers and sons....

the morning after

This was The Boy's first Fathers & Sons. They stayed overnight and he fell asleep on the drive home and stayed alseep in the car for another hour!

first steps

He's walking! This video was taken on August 1, now he walks more than he crawls. Unless he has shoes on, then he reverts back to crawling!

I apologize for the sideways view, I really don't know what I am doing and probably should not be allowed to operate a video camera.

Some random pictures of the 3rd and 4th at the parade and Sunday dinner at G&G A's.

free face painting

So, we had a little BBQ with some ward friends ( i know, social aren't we?) and one of the kids was face painting and charging for it! Well, kids 3 and under were free and Pace decided he wanted a garbage truck (what else?) on his cheek. He came running up to me a few minutes later looking a lot like this:

His lips were also black, but I think he licked it off by the time we got home!

His eyelids were covered in black too.

Oh my little Gothic Garbage Man.
