Charlie - What he's been up to....

Since turning 2 in February, Charlie has amazed us everyday.  He has his own little personality and everything has to go according to his plan.  We've started potty training and he has been doing really good (when he wants to).  He is talking so good which can be a bad thing sometimes because he's quick to tell us what he thinks!  He loves riding his tractor every afternoon after "school".  He can drive it so good!  He loves feeding the ducks, blowing bubbles, reading books, helping daddy clean the pool and anything else that involves getting dirty (or wet).  He is becoming such a little helper and helps me do laundry and pick up around the house.  He has moved up to the 2-year old class in Sunday School that Meme teaches and she said he is doing so well.  He loves learning about Jesus, praying and pretending to read his bible.  We are enjoying him so much even though some days are very rough!    Here are some pictures of the last few weeks....

I am so ready for our new baby girl to get here.  I'm getting super anxious!  I had a surprise shower at work several weeks ago and received a ton of super cute girl clothes!  I love the girl's I work with and never expected a shower!
