Peas are pretty gross and Charlie agrees!

Charlie is still doing a fantastic job as a eater. So far his favorite food is Sweet Potatoes and we discovered lastnight that without question his least favorite food is peas. Here's some evidence:



Here's some additional evidence that we are still raising the happiest baby on the block!

Chelsea and Charlie Bonding Day


Chelsea the pup has had a general attitude of "what's the big deal," since Charlie's arrival to House on Strathmore.  She's never shown any aggression or anger towards the baby but you can tell she's a bit frustrated at the shifting of attention away from her.  However, lately as Charlie's been a bit more active she seems to be more interested in seeing what he's all about.  Our biggest problem with her is that she LOVES to lick his face.  And since he's spending more time in the walker and exersaucer which happen to be right at her eye level, the phrases "enough Chelsea," "no more licks Chelsea" and just "CHELSEA, seriously" are pretty common around here.

I think this video captures their growing appreciation and interest in each other.  We know they'll soon be best buds!


Later this afternoon we went for a long walk at Herring Run and took this great shot of the two of them.  This was also our first time using the more compact stroller, which was definitely much more convenient.
