Charlotte's Spring Concert

Well believe it or not our little Charlotte is almost done with her first year at Kiddie Car Nursery School. We are so proud of how well Charlotte is doing. This past Thursday was the school's annual spring concert. It was 25 minutes so it is in 3 parts. Charlotte did a great job.

Charlotte, Our Little Pre-Schooler

A big milestone happened in our lives today...Charlotte started pre-school. Part of Chris and I never wanted this day to come, but it did. Our little peanut loved it and is looking forward towards going back on Tuesday. Charlotte is going to Kiddie Car Pre-School right around the corner from our house.


This year she is going 2 days a week and then next year she will move up to 3 days.


We are so proud of our little shy girl.

Charlotte Sings Christmas

We were able to catch Charlotte singing some Christmas Carols a few weeks ago. I had to sneek it because she would have stopped if she knew I was taping her.

Dame Charlotte "Elton John" Hull

My sister, Laura gave Charlotte new sunglasses over the weekend. Elton John would be proud.

Thanks for the glasses Laura.

Love You Maeve

Charlotte Got to hold Maeve for the first time yesterday... With some help from Mommy (of course). What a great sister!!!

The Life Of A Snowman

Last week, Charlotte and I built her first snowman. But with the 50 inches of rain that has fallen this week, the snowman is no more. Charlotte wasn't upset, just said "snowman all gone".

Party Time

February is the month of parties at the Hull House. As I mentioned before, Charlotte turned 2 on February 2 and Chris turned 34 on February 14th. Throw in Valentines Day on the 14th and you have a month that could wear out any credit card. On February 16th, my family came over to celebrate Charlotte turning 2. As always, we had a lot fun and a great time....Happy Birthday Chris & Charlotte. And Happy Valentines Day too.

Check out more photos in our album.

Charlotte At 2

Believe it or not, Charlotte turned 2 today. The last month has flown by with all that is going on. But I still can't believe that Charlotte is 2. IT'S GOING TOO FAST.

Anyway, today we mellowed out here at home with just the 4 of us. We went over to Fuddruckers for dinner and then back here for birthday cake (Chris made it). Another great day!!

Check out more photos of the day at our family photo album.

Crazy Driver

Here are a couple of videos we shot today of Charlotte driving her bus and a little walking. It's amazing how much more she has walked in the last few days.

Chris's Birthday - Monthly Family Dinner

Last Sunday we went to Mom and Dad's house for our monthly family dinner and Chris's birthday. The dinner this month was Mom's famous Meatloaf along with Susie's creator cake...mmmm chocolate. After dinner & cake, Chris opened her presents and then it was fun with the cousins. Here are some pictures from the day plus a few new videos of Charlotte...She's hasn't taken her first step yet by herself, be she is really close.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY CHARLOTTE

It's hard to believe but Charlotte turned 1 yesterday. It seamed like only last week when we brought her home (actually it will be a year ago tomorrow) for the first time. Amazing how fast times go by.

Last night, the three of us has a little party to celebrate her actual birthday and then today, the family came over for munchies, cake and ice cream. Chris was up this morning at 6am so she had plenty of time to bake and decorate Charlotte's Tweedy Cake and what a great job she did. At 2:00, it was party time, although Charlotte didn't wake up from her nap until 3:00ish. After devouring the cake it was off to the presents.

Here are some pictures and video from Charlotte's Special Day
