Happy 1 Month Birthday!

Wow.  I can't believe you're one-month birthday is here so soon!  Although you're growing so fast, you might be mistaken for being older - you already weigh 10.6 lbs!  I think the fact that you eat almost non-stop may have something to do with your growth rate.  Look how big you are!  (Those are 3 month clothes you are wearing, by the way.)

Ellie has been a great big sister so far, and you've been a wonderfully tolerant little sister too.  You don't get too upset when she "boops" you on the nose, or points out your cheeks, ears, tongue or eyes unless the pointing gets a little too rough.  She wants to be close to you all of the time.  She even carries her dolls around saying, "It's okay, Charlotte."  I think you two are going to be best friends and great playmates.

While you were here turning one-month-old, another very special occasion was taking place.  Daddy went to West Virginia for Uncle Mark's graduation from medical school.  He didn't forget about you though.  He even got Uncle Mark, Aunt Melinda and Aunt Megan to wish you a happy birthday too!

We tried to tell Uncle Mark congratulations by making a sign and taking a picture of the three of us. After several attempts we gave up on getting everyone to smile and settled on the best we could get.

Lots to celebrate today!
