Late night thoughts

Charles-Winston is my best bud, he kinda has to be since I spend the whole day every day with him. I can't get over how funny all of his emotions and expressions are. He used to do what we called "O-face" - it's pretty self explanatory, but I'll include a picture for those who care. 

     I've previously mentioned it, but why not again? He's a smiler, since he was 3 weeks old he's been smiling. At first not so frequently but now all the time. I've never felt so in tune with someone who couldn't convey themselves in a way besides high and low expressions.

Since we've been in St. George, Charles-Winston has been sleeping so well! He's been sleeping through the night (although not napping as well), and he's been a pretty happy baby. I think the atmosphere here is just a lot slower or more relaxed and he feels like he's calm and doesn't need to be crazily busy all day every day. 

He's also getting a handle on sitting, today he didn't fall over for at least 5 minutes, like it was a full commercial break before I picked him up and handed him to his dad.

     (The two pictures off to the side are of him the first day and a few days ago showing his sitting progress.) 

     
I feel so redundant but I cannot express my amazement at how motivated he is and how proud of him I am. Like, I GREW THAT THING INSIDE ME AND NOW HE'S BRATTY JUST LIKE ME! I couldn't be prouder. I can tell I'm gonna have a sass-off with him when he's like two years old where I'll have to establish my dominance and get cheeky with him.
     There is nothing I enjoy more than spending time with my little buddy, it could just be me, but I feel like we have a deep connection. He really gets my sense of humor and he pulls my hair - two things I definitely require in a guy.
