Sophie the Giraffe

Frank picked out Sophie the Giraffe for Charlie... and apparently it is a well know toy... i had never heard of it before... but Charlie was instantly smitten

Happy Charlie!

Charlie loves to eat! He is now enjoying sweet potatoes and pears!

This reminds me of another happy baby...

5 Months Old with the Gund Bear

Charlie is 5 months old! He is finally our happy little man not that his reflux has seemed to pass! The doctor recommended that he started solids to help with the reflux and it has worked miracles! He LOVES sweet potatoes and is doing well with rice cereal. He can sit up with assistance and can scoot forward and backwards. He is also starting to sleep much better occasionally only waking up once during the night to eat then back to sleep. He weighs almost 17lbs {50th percentile} 27 inches long { 90th percentile} which interestingly enough is almost EXACTLY the same as his big brother Frank at 5 months! We are so happy to watch him grow!

National Zoo

Saturday Daddy was off work before noon! so we decided to pack up... head for the metro... and see the Zoo! It was hot and later in the afternoon so we did not get to see a ton of animals... but it was fun and nice now that we know where everything is and how to get around :)

Charlie was as happy as can be walking with daddy at the Zoo

The boys in the double stroller

Charlie was worn out!

Frank's favorite part of any metro trip is the huge escalator... he LOVES the escalator...
