After Christmas

Pearce, Carrie, and Chris came to visit after they got back from their cruise and we had Christmas with them. We also had brunch with Mama and Charlotte had Charlie with her every second. She was very cautious on who held him and made sure everyone treated him gently. Mama even took her to pick out some clothes for him. He can wear real baby clothes in newborn size! Even Uncle Nay Nay loves him. We took him with us to the Buick place when I had to get an oil change and Charlotte set him in a chair. A man walked by and just about freaked out thinking a newborn baby was just laying in a chair! It was so funny! Then he called all of his coworkers to come over and look at him and they couldn't believe how real he looked! Oh and we saw Jumanji over the break. We all loved it but Charlotte fell asleep.

Christmas 2017 Continued

Nathan and Charlotte had lots of things on their lists but the main things they wanted were Lego sets for Nathan and a reborn baby for Charlotte. Nathan still loves Legos and even though we think he has plenty, he always wants more. At this time Nathan is really into Ninjago so Santa brought him a big lego set that he wanted. Mommy and Daddy got him a couple more smaller ones. Charlotte has been watching videos about reborn babies...baby dolls that look extremely real. Once I started researching them, I found out that the real reborn babies are thousands of dollars! But I found a site called Ashton Drake that had the most realistic babies you could get but not thousands of dollars. The baby "Santa" got Charlotte was $200 which is crazy to me and Wayne, but I talked Daddy into it. Charlotte LOVES her babies and I just knew she would go crazy for this little guy! His name is Charlie and he is real in every way (if you know what I mean, ha!). I also talked Daddy into getting them fewer presents but better ones. He is so funny because he loves to give them a big Christmas. And I'm the one thinking about where we are going to store it all and that they have plenty of toys. He kind of listened to me. Charlotte also got a two wheel bike and Nathan got a phone watch. I love the watch because I can call him when he's out running around the neighborhood or staying home by himself. But we don't want him to have a real iphone yet. Some of the presents they got: microscope set, metal detector, electric guitar, board games, toys for Rusty, and baby clothes for the new addition. When Charlotte opened her baby, it was the best reaction ever! I got it on video. She screamed and was so happy!!! She takes him everywhere and loves dressing him. Like I said before, I'm behind on the blog. It's July when I'm writing this but Charlotte still loves her baby now just as much as when she got him. And Nathan bought himself an Xbox with his Christmas money. That is his new obsession!
