Trucks, Trucks and More Trucks

It turns out the lost camera was my fault! Fortunately Carlos found it and so I don't have to rely on my blackberry...until the next time I lose or break it.

Charlie is talking much more these days- repeating words and sentences. My favorite is that he started saying "I love you." He is also working hard on his ABCs. It's so much fun to listen to him. Sometimes I think I can rationalize with him now that he can say more, but that really isn't the case. In fact he is starting to have temper tantrums. If he doesn't get something he wants he goes boneless and flops on the ground crying. I usually let him be and it seems to pass in a couple of minutes, but I don't think that is a good sign given that he isn't even two yet!

This weekend we met up with some of his buddies at the "Truck Touch" where trucks, buses, police cars -basically everything that little boys seem obsessed with - were open to toddler fondling. It was hysterical. Unfortunately, despite his obsession Charlie got nervous when I put him in the driver seat of the trucks. He did however like riding on a toy train train and listening to the music.


He also had fun hanging out with Ellie who was in town from Boston. Here they are enjoying appetizers on the deck. Charlie really likes hummus and is starting to take to guacamole too. He needs to work on his manners though as he usually dips the same chip into the hummus 5 times.
And a quiet moment alone...

Sunday we went to see the drum circle in Meridian Park. Charlie and I had fun, but there were too many hippies for Carlos. Here he is enjoying the beat with Ehrin.
And baby #2 is really coming - here I am at 25 weeks
