We have had a busy few weekends! Three weekends ago we were in Memphis visiting my grandfather, and two weekends ago we went to Atlanta for our sister-in-law Jennifers baby shower. This past weekend Ash was gone playing golf, so Charlie buns and I just stayed home and relaxed!! (well mommy went to see a movie with Kandace,,but that was totally relaxing!)


While in Atlanta, Charlie got to spend time with his doggie cousins, Layla and Huck. He was not sure about them at first, but then giggled everytime Layla came near! Jennifer's mom, Judy, is such a natural grandmother! Charlie just loved her! She will have 2 granddaughters in the next 2 months!
Over the past few months we have been working with Charlie to gain weight and use more muscle. He has visited lots of doctors including a genetics doctor, endocrinologist, and neurologist. So after a series of blood work (which was horrible for Charlie and I ) and some x-rays, they told me he has hypotonia. I think this is sort of common, but it simply means low muscle tone. He doesnt like to put weight on his legs or stand. The doctor said there was nothing I could have done to prevent it, but I can help it with physical therapy. So we will be going twice a week now, and the doctor says he should be caught up in a few months. this is good because I do not want to be carrying 2 kids on each hip!!! I really need Charlie to at least crawl in a few months!!


We ate one night in Atlanta at the Medievel Castle. Such a fun dinner! The cheering crowds would off course make Charlie cry, but after 45 minutes he was ok.:) Get ready for baby Charlton and Jennifer!
