5 weeks!!! I wonder just how long one continues to count ones life in weeks??? I'm sure at some point, I'll change over to months and then years, but For now, it's fun and gives me an excuse to post! Charlie is growing too quickly (as everyone warned us he would). He now smiles (and it's not just when he has to fart!!) and giggles (especially when his Daddy comes home from work and whistles at him....it's quite hilarious!!!) and makes some great cooing noises too. He's had a bit of a cold this past week - David brought it home, then Charlie got it and now I'm suffering slightly....should be gone soon! It's amazing though how you don't feel as bad as you would have had you not had a beautiful baby to preoccupy yourselves! (does that make ANY sense at all??) Anyway, what I'm trying to say is....when you have such a "beautiful baby boy" to focus all your attention on, you just don't seem to notice the cold symptoms as much! OK...maybe my head still is a bit foggy.....So, here are a few photos taken this week for your viewing pleasure...

How many of you have a beautiful hand made cashmere sweater? Well, Sir Charles does! THANKS to Great Auntie Nancy, he's looking beautiful in Blue....just look at how those big blue eyes pop!!!

Charlie LOVES to cuddle and when you pick him up like this he curls his little feet right up under his belly and settles right in....just makes you melt! So, here's our little "snuggle bug" with his Dad! This one's a keeper!!!

Charlie's Biker Buddy, Corey, gave him his very first baseball and glove....what do you think...should we send this off to an agent yet????....."my boy's gonna play in the big league, my boy's gonna turn some heads!!!!"

Finally, here's another bath photo....he's just TOOO much fun in the tub! On a sunny day, the sun shines right in on him and he practically goes to sleep. Here, he was a little more alert because it was raining out that day. I must say though, he sure does LOVE bath time! He's now starting to kick in the water and he makes lots of cooing noises too...only seems to get upset when I take him out!

That's it for today! Nana and Papa only have a few days left here, so we're all going on a road trip to Salt Spring Island tomorrow...I'm sure we'll have some photos to post from there so keep checking! Hope you all have a great weekend.
