Our Baby Charlie

Hooray! Our boy arrived!

Since Charlie's birth, our life has quickly become more interesting and segmented, divided into 3-4 hour intervals. After coming home from the hospital, we had a couple rough nights, but things seem to be getting better as we've all become more acclimated to the routine.

Of course, Charlie mostly eats, poops, and sleeps, but we see more of his personality every day. His dad loves to tickle and tease him, a mild form of torture that Charlie tolerates exceedingly well. And it's a good thing he can take it, 'cause as Charlie gets older the teasing will only get worse. And of course, Charlie loves his mom. He's met all her hopes of being a great cuddle-buddy, and they thoroughly enjoy taking naps snuggled together.

Charlie likes to keep his hands balled into fists up by his face (which his grandpa takes as evidence that he'll be a great boxer), and it reminds me of when we went to get our ultrasound. The technician had a very difficult time getting a picture of his face because his hands were constantly in the way.

I wonder what other habits from the womb will cross over!
