Happy 4th Birthday Charlie!







This was the gift he was waiting to open ALL day. He kept telling me all week that he just knew I bought him the dinosaur that moves his head and makes loud noises. I wrapped it and he knew the shape of the package. He kept saying, "Can I open the striped one...PLEASE"! You can see on his face that he LOVES it!


Auntie and uncle Kris and the boys got Char a civil war hat. He LOVES it!!
Gramma Dee-Dee got Charlie Spider Man for his B-day and for Halloween!!
Char LOVES playing baseball and always says, " mommy and daddy will you give me some pitches"? So, we bought him his very own tee-ball stand!
He also got a race track for his cars.



The Bauer's came over for a little cake and ice cream. Char LOVES dinosaurs and loved the T-Rex they got him!!
Benny wanted to help Char blow out the candles. Char wasn't to fond of that idea and we had to light the candles twice so Char could do them all by himself! Thank God for little brothers!!



Happy birthday Charlie boy! Mommy and daddy love you so much and are so grateful to God for you. When you were in mommy's tummy we thought that we might not get to see you until heaven. The doctor's told mommy that there was a strong possibility you might not live. Mommy and daddy prayed for you each day that God would make you strong and that mommy would be able to have a healthy baby. When mommy found out you were OK and that I was having a boy God filled my heart with so much Joy. I wanted you to be just like daddy. Daddy is adorable and you are adorable. Daddy was a big baby (10lbs 13 ounces) and you were a big baby.(8 lbs 13 ounces) You were the BEST baby and had the nick name "CHUCK POPE" because you were just content to chill and do nothing. You bring mommy and daddy so much joy. The funny things you say, the adorable smile, the ways you lay down your life for others by sharing all your cars and dinosaurs and the joy you bring to mommy and daddy each day by being our son. You are a blessing Charlie and we love you. Happy 4Th birthday!!
