Catch Up

I know... I know... I know....  It's been awhile since the last post!  To say we have been busy is an understatement, and April was slow compared to what May and June look like.  Some days I am petrified to look at the calendar!  :(

Between soccer on Sunday/Monday/Wednesday/(and some Thursdays), Volleyball on Monday, and Softball on Tuesday/Thursday I look forward to the weekends, which are now full through the end of June as well. 

April went by way to fast, we celebrated my birthday at Treasure Island, spent a day at Mall of America with the other Thelen's while the girls went on rides and then enjoyed a night of swimming and hot tubing afterwards.   We celebrated Pete's birthday with an evening at soccer practice.  Doesn't turning 33 sound fun!  Oh.... and Charlie turned 6 months old.  HOLY CRAP time flies!  It doesn't seem like it was 6 months ago that we were anxiously and impatiently awaiting her arrival.

Charlie goes in next week for her 6 month check-up.  I am curious to see what her stats are this time.  At 4 months old she was the size of a 7 month old and she has grown since then so we'll see!
Here are a few of the things she is doing now (I will put the complete list up when I do her 6 month stats.)

*Sitting on her own
*LOVES bananas, I can't feed her fast enough.
*Plays peek-a-boo with Madison and squeals every time
*babbles NON-STOP.  And I thought Madison was bad, now we have 2 talkers!
*chews on everything in sight
*has 4 teeth on the bottom and the top 2 are just about to come in
