Charlie's 2 week milestone


Today Charlie rolled over. Yup our 2 week old baby decided that he wasn't showing off enough by lifting his head and looking around on day 2... so today he rolled from his belly to his back two times! Of course i missed it, but he did it with steve (and in front of cousin Nicole for proof). What a little over achiever! I hope we can catch it on film tonight or tomorrow. I am such a proud mom!

Today we went down to Mansfield for Steven's surprise 60th bday. Actually today was the day for many events.. we had 3 invites to celebrations! I really wanted to go to CT for Lys' baby shower, but after our crazy weekend last weekend, we thought it would be best to stay local for Charlie. Especially with his crabby moods lately. So we were able to visit with the rest of my dad's cousins. Some weren't at the Labor Day affair last weekend, so there were a few people meeting him for the first time. We also got to see Taylor (1 year) and Mercedes (4 years), who were both so adorable with him. Taylor's dog is also named Charlie, so she was a bit confused at first when we kept asking her where Charlie was. But she is a smart cookie and figured out that the baby was also a Charlie :)

Poor Charlie has been really gassy lately, which has led to tired Mom and Dad. He likes to scream for hours between 7 and 11 pm.. it's exhausting. Hopefully the Mylicon and extra burping during the feeding will provide some relief. But we may be at the Dr on Monday if things don't get better soon. Poor baby looks like he is in pain after eating, and i feel just awful. And it makes us not want to feed the kid. And while screeching, all he tries to do is eat more, which makes it all worse.
