Charlie Barlie

So Charlie is getting ready for his first birthday. The little dude is turning into quite a personality. He is definitely a different creature than Claire ever was. Where Claire was a good sleeper, Charlie has..um...been a little more challenging. Whereas Claire was pretty quiet, Charlie screams for attention...or food...or a hug...or to get him out of bed.

One thing about Charlie that's really cool is his little verbalizations. He's got a little evil laugh when he has gotten into something good. Kind of like Jon Stewart's version of George Bush's sh*t-eating chuckle. He also has a high-low peep that he does.

Pretty soon he's going to be walking - and that's when the fun is really going to start.
