Blurry smiles!

Charlie is starting to smile! I haven't caught a good picture yet, but here's a blurry preview of cute smiles to come!


More Handsome Boys!

3 handsome boys!


2 handsome boys!

Surfer boy Charlie!

I picked up this super cute outfit at the consignment store. Now when we go to LA, Charlie will fit in. I expect that he will be surfing by the time he turns two!

Too many babies!


So we had all of our kid friends over this afternoon for lunch and playing (except for Mabel, she was sick.) There were an awful lot of breastfeeding moms. I think we intimidated the boys a little! But a good time was had by all. There was much adorableness! Here are some pictures!

Avett, being super cute with the toy dog. He loves to tease Wiki with this thing.

And here he is holding Charlie, with Pete's help.


Here's Molly, playing peekaboo in the doorway.


Here's Sarah, reading to little William


Here's a couple pictures of Eva. She loves being upside down!
And here's Linnea and Charlie, next to Amber and Gray, under the blanket. He's only 3 weeks old, one month younger than Charlie!
And here's Charlie!

One more!

Wiki and Charlie

One of my ex-students from Lafayette emailed me yesterday and wanted to see a picture of Charlie. 
She was one of my favorite students, but she was terrified of dogs. The first time she saw Wiki she screamed. Once she got to hang out with Wiki, she fell in love. By the end of the year, she used to come by my office just to see him.
So when I went looking for a picture to send to this student, I was looking for a picture of a Wiki and Charlie. And did I find some cute ones! 

This one is my favorite. It looks like they are best friend crime fighters! And they are holding hands. I'm guessing Pete took this picture when Charlie was about 2 weeks old.
Thus is cute too!
And more Wiki and Charlie cuddling!


Love!!!

Post bath Charlie

Charlie and I have been taking baths together. It's so nice, because it's fun for both of us. I get to relax, and Charlie gets to eat and put his feet in the water. This is him, post bath. Very handsome!

Another museum!?


Today we went to our favorite museum, the museum of life and science. It's super kid friendly and fun. We went with all of our friends. They have lots of cool outdoor space and lots of cool indoor exhibits.
Here's a spider. It's not in a cage. Apparently, they trust that it won't leave this tree. Crazy! Also, it's as big as my head.
Here's Molly. She's the toughest baby I know.
And here's Eva! Beautiful as always!
And here's Charlie. I left him alone on the bed for a minute thus morning, and he fell asleep in this position, with his butt way up in the air.




Museum of Natural Science

Today, Charlie and I went to the nc museum of natural science. We saw lots of cool stuff. Dino bones, lots of bugs and turtles, giant sloths. A butterfly even landed on us in the butterfly house!
Weird giant bee.
Giant sloth.
But this is cutest thing I saw all day! Charlie!

And the grumpiest thing I saw all day! Charlie!

Charlie and his Dino Mobile

Here's a super cute video of Charlie playing with his Dino-Mobile (which sounds cooler than a regular Mobile) that the Malantic's bought us!  He loves this thing.

Here's a link in case the video doesn't play (it seems ipads and blogger videos don't get along): YouTube Link

Technical Difficulties

I'm pretty sure that video didn't work, but I'll leave that to the experts.
I'm an expert at posting adorable pictures of Charlie.
Here he is practicing tummy time. He hates it! But you can see his super cute froggy butt!
And more cuteness here. Whale outfit! "I'm a great catch!"



A Quick Video!

A little of Charlie staring in the mirror...

Walking with Daddy

Charlie and petie went for a long walk today while I went swimming. Pete took this picture. He looks super tough.
Pete also took this video of Charlie looking in the mirror. I'm not sure how to upload video, I'll probably need some help. Here's a pic for now.



Sleeping Charlie

Here is how Charlie sleeps. All wrapped up like a burrito, in the bed between his mom and dad. Pretty cute, right?

I took this next picture last night. I put him down for a minute, and he fell asleep immediately. It's pretty dark, but I thought it was a pretty funny position.

Saturday Night



It's another rocking Saturday night in the Torrione household. It's 8 o'clock, Charlie and I are in bed. So tired! Anyway, here are some pictures from today. We took a walk with Bill and Alison and little William. Alison is my friend who took the awesome pics of Charlie for the birth announcements.
Here's William! He's 10 months old. Look at that hair!
And here is Petie with Charlie in the Ergo.
We had some issues with Charlie's clothes, so he had to ride home in his diaper. So cute!

And here's Pete and Charlie. They watched Caddyshack today for the first time. I think they will watch it many more times in the years to come.
