Charlee has now spent as much time outside of the womb and she did in it. With every day she is growing, learning, developing... it is amazing to see first hand. She now has an assortment of "tricks", like blowing kisses, clapping, making fart noises with her lips, waiving, etc. She is also crawling all around the house and standing up on any surface she can get her hands on. Suffice to say Casey and I had to get going on the baby-proofing. Charlee is also learning some words. Besides mama, papa, dada, she is also getting cat, dog, duck, book.
OK, on to the pictures. Usually I get all the pictures from our parents and load them on here too, but I may have to add a couple pictures later (or tag them on to a later blog).
Here we go....
Charlee in between rooting me on at the Napa triathlon.
She even crossed her first finish line!
Steve and Houlberg congratulating her.
A loving hug drom Grammie while we were celebrating Mother's Day.

Charlee smiling and waving at the cow. This was a couple seconds before her and Casey got a big ole'cowlick.

The stress ball that G.R. brought back for her that she obsesses over at times.

A big smile from both Charlee and Gramma during our Mother's Day celebration.

Charlee leaning into G.R. during a group shot.

Kaitlin, Uncle Brady, Charlee and Casey pose for a picture at Aunt Joan's birthday.

Aunt Joan playing with Charlee. Like her Dad, she is already getting excited for football season.

Theresa, Joan, Ray, Casey, and Charlee posing for a group shot.

Charlee rocking the hoodie and showing off how cool she is.

Really though it was very funny, because she always manages how to do some weird thing to the computer with shortcuts as she crawls on it that Casey and I have to look into how to undo. This time she opened up the program for Violet, her programmable teddy bear (which neither of us know where it actually is on the computer....)

She looks so grown-up...

Some people just can't hold their beer and pretzels.

Another shot of the animal feeding area in Avila Beach.

So much plaid and stripes... We did not coordinate well. On the steps looking out onto Avila Beach.

Charlee delivering her first Mother's Day card to her Mommy.

Scooter followed suit....

Cheery Charlee playing in the nursery.

Charlee rooting on her favorite basketball team while shooting some hoops.

She actually makes the balls in sometimes, looks at us, and claps.

OK, I realize that this picture is not a great one, but it is the first night she stood up in her crib during the night and just cried hysterically. Casey looked on the monitor and practically yelled "Oh CRAP!" and went running back there. We went ahead and lowered it all the way before letting her lay back down.

Casey, Charlee, and I celebrating Alisha's birthday with her and Sam. It was a fun and beautiful day!

A quick family shot in Tiburon.

Charlee getting ready for her first Giant's game.

Dave, Charlee, and I rooting for the Giants.

Beth checking out Charlee using her self-feeder.

Ashton, Molly, Casey, Charlee, and I posing for a quick shot. It was another nice day!

9 months going on 2 years.

Wine tasting for Katie's birthday in Napa.

The groups shot at Reynold's Winery. They had a nice picnic area outside with a fountain that made for a nice lunch! Then it was off to Mumm's.

I like to think we are singing in this picture.

Charlee's new standing play stay station. It was better than our old one, otherwise known as the TV stand.
Well, that is what we have for now. Hopefully we will see you all soon! We have her 9 month doctor appointment tomorrow which should be fun.
Until next time, love CL&C.
