As my beautiful friend Lisa said "sometimes it is best to just move forward and not become weighed down by trying to catch up". I missed a number of months on the blog but in order to prevent me being overwhelmed, I will just start with today and commit to being better about posting updates!!
So, the biggest news in our lives is that Charli will be a big sister soon! On or around January 27th we will have a new baby in the house. We are just thrilled and feel so incredibly blessed. Charli is going to be a great big sister! She already loves babies and wants to see them all VERY close up. And Charli is getting lots of big sis' practice with her dolls and cousin Gigi. She really enjoyed spending time with Gigi when they came to visit in July. Charli gave her lots of hugs and love. She took on a mothering role right away and even tried to lift her into her stroller (Gigi is only 3 months younger than Charli). It was so sweet seeing the girls play together. I know they are going to be best of friends. Charli is also practicing her big sister role with her "babies" (dolls) she loves to wrap her dolls in a blanket and take them for walks in the mini stroller. She will hold them, rock them, and give them little kisses. However, when it is time to put them to bed she often pitches them into place with great force. We may need to work on this technique before the baby comes. :)
