What's this stuff for?

 

Daddy tells me that I need to be thinking about potty training. I don't know what he means. But I do know that somehow it involves this white papery stuff, so I took some out and walked around the house with it for HOURS, trying to figure out how to use it.

My Own Chair!

 

I got many good gifts this year for Christmas and one of my favorites is this pretty chair. It is just my size and I don't need mommy or daddy to help me get in or out of it. It even says "Charlie" on the back of it so I know it is mine.

It was the Happiest Christmas Ever!

Mommy and I had so much fun at Christmas!

 

Daddy and I go sliding!

At first sliding looked scary. When Daddy asked me if I wanted to go, I shook my head "No." But once he kept me safe, I couldn't get enough sliding! We slid again and again and now the slide (as long as Daddy holds me) is my favorite part of the playground.

 

Charlotte Starts to Drive

 

My daddy says that every kid wants to drive. But I think I'm doing a great job by starting to drive so early!

Lights in Zilker Park

 

This year Mommy and Daddy took me to see lots and lots of lights in Zilker Park. I don't really understand why there were so many lights. And people. And dogs. And noisy musical instruments. But even though it was cold, windy, and crowded, I still had fun. But toward the end, I got more interested in little rocks instead of lights, so I'm looking for rocks in this picture!

Mom and Me

 

Yesterday mom and dad took me to Gruene, Texas where there was a Christmas market. We had a fun day seeing all the Christmas decorations and shopping. Here are mom and I just before we left and headed back home.

O CHristmas Tree

 

Before we left Nashville Nana asked me to help set up her Christmas tree. It was fun to see all the lights and hang up the pretty ornaments. When we were all done the tree looked beautiful and we all had a good time.

Thanksgiving Morning

 

While in Nashville for Thanksgiving, we tried to relax as much as possible. Here daddy and I are hanging on out in bed watching cartoons. Daddy and I like watching Fairly Odd Parents together!

Daddy Found a Fish

 

The day before Thanksgiving, my daddy and my PopPop went flyfishing and had a great day finding fish.

Charlotte and Jake 4 Hallow'een

 

This is Cousin Jake. As you can see he's very creative with his Hallow'een costume.

Charlotte's Birthday

 

Today was my very first birthday party and I had a great time. I'll post more photos and videos tomorrow, but for now everything's in the Photo Album you'll find in the sidebar!

Cranky Charlotte

When I'm tired of my car seat, I try to let Mommy and Daddy know!

Daddy Doesn't Always Share

 

Daddy doesn't always share his food. True, I used to choke on tortilla chips, but now that I'm a big girl, I can eat them all day long. So I decided to take my share of them right out of his mouth. For more pictures of us at the Oasis, check out my album!

Mmmmm...Pumpkin!

Mom and Dad say that a special day called "Hallow'een" is coming up. I don't really understand it, but it has something to do with these big orange fruits called pumpkins. We went to a big patch of pumpkins today and I picked out a few to bring home. I really don't understand what to do with them -- they taste ok but apples are better. Mom says that when Dad comes back from his business trip, he'll show me what to do with them. I can hardly wait! Look for more pumpkin patch photos in my photo album!
