Wordful Wednesday with Charlotte






Charlotte.....my sweet, sweet Charlotte.

She's my calmer twin.....(er...most of the time). Which is funny, because she was the one who was the hardest to find on the fetal monitors while I was hospitalized for five weeks AND the one who caused our emergency c-section due to her decelerations (little stinker!). But, she's now my more laid back kid.

This week she started laughing. She and Daddy were staring at each other...and she laughed out loud. Today, when I was kissing her tummy and her tootsies (aka feet) - she laughed for me. Oh that made my day! It's the slightest little laugh, and it doesn't continue on and on, but she is definitely laughing out loud these days and I am so excited about that!



Charlotte has found her thumb in the last couple of weeks. She will be much like her Big Sister Jordan in that venture. It might even be the way that I tell her apart from Maddie in the future!



But Charlotte also seems to be my twin who takes it all in....



and in what seems like a very serious way....



She's not all business, all the time. I love that when she sees me, she smiles. It just makes my day to see her grinning at the sight of her Mama. It makes it all worth while. I am SO very blessed!

Nicole, they are all - all of your girls - are just amazing. Charlotte is too funny! That last picture nearly made me spit my cereal out... you sure that's not a messy diaper there? Hehehehe... I love your twins - you are blessed! Keep those pictures handy, too; I'd get wigged out with the stress once in a while and run away to look at pictures to remind me that I have some precious gifts around me since that can be a bit hard to remember when you've got 6 lungs behind the 200 dB screaming while you're trying to cook dinner. ;o) Keep up the good work Mamma - and keep posting pictures... I devour them!

I love that she smiles when she sees you. And that she's laughing now. Nothing sweeter.
