Grandparents, Siblings, and growing

So finally here are some pictures with Grandma and Grandpa Luke, or Bama and Papa, as Hunter calls them. We were so lucky to have them here for a week before Charlotte was even a week old. They helped out tons playing with Hunter, making meals, cleaning, and sacrificing sleep for kids. We don't know what we would have done without them, thanks again mom and dad!


Hunter absolutely couldn't get enough. He adores both sets of grandparents!
Here are some shots of Charlotte and her big brother. He has really taken to the role and just can't get enough of her. He is always asking for her if she isn't around, and if we leave her within his reach he will go cuddle/hug/kiss her to death. We are still working on the gentle aspect, but he is really so sweet with her, we are so grateful.

Their first game together.



Here are just a few of the many fun shots we have of her. I especially like the ones where it looks like she's smiling. We think she's pretty darn cute.



We are so blessed with this sweet little one. Once she figures out how to let us sleep for a while, it'll be even better. She had her two week check-up last friday, she's growing like her life depends on it. She gained 2-1/2 lbs and 2 inches in two weeks! That's right, she was 10 lbs 6 oz and 23 inches at the check-up! She's gonna be a pain to haul around. Hope she learns to walk fast!
