Charlie had a busy month in June. She turned 9 months old and has officially spent more time out of the womb than in (insert big crocodile tears here). At her 9 month appointment, Miss Charlotte weighed in at 19 lbs 13 oz (70 percentile) and 29-1/2 inches (97 percentile). Some of Charlie's high points of being 9 months included:
Charlie is still a love bug, loves to give kisses, and is my happy, smiley girl.
Hudson being a helpful big brother. Not so helpful when he gave her that bruise on her cheek however.

I know many of you saw my status updates on Facebook, but for those that didn't, we bought a wooden play structure. It was quite the project putting it together and took Ryan nearly a week of working on it at night after the kids went to bed. We somehow managed to keep it a surprise for Hudson. Every time he would ask about it we would tell him we didn't know what it was or what it was going to be. Good thing he is only two and those answers were acceptable!! I'm so glad we kept a secret because his face was priceless when he finally got to see the finished product.
Hudson had swim lessons every Saturday in June. He did awesome, although he cried the second and third lessons. By the last one though, he was getting himself across the pool without any help! He loved doing big jumps into the water as well.
We headed over to Poulsbo to spend the day with Grandma. We had a picnic in the park and plenty of time spent on the swings of course!

Having fun with my two favorite kiddos!
Our friend Jack O. turned 3 in May and his birthday was WAY too much fun. The Reptile Man was there and Hudson was in his element! Each kid got to take home a snake stuffed animal and when we asked Hudson what he was naming his, he thought for a bit and then said "Sausage". LOL!
