Nice tummy, and then the bear..

During these cold wintry months, Charlotte rarely gets to see her tummy while wearing clothes.  We hurry out of her jammies, into her clothes which usually includes a onsie underneath, then into the bath and then race back into those jammies.  Well, this day we missed out on the onsie, who knows why? laundry? didn't feel like it? your guess is as good as mine.. needless to say she suddenly realized she had a bare belly and couldn't help but show it off!! Who could? 

Very pinchable :)

I think she surprised herself a little..

Pretty pretty pretty

Then later that day, she got a little bee in her bonnet, which she often does.. but this time it was carrying around this polar bear from her auntie and uncle.  It was soo cute, she just wouldn't give up, it was a good ten or fifteen minutes which in the life of a one year old is a long time..

of course Taterman had to get in the shot, silly pooch!

success!! (at this point she was walking pretty well, but not great, so walking with this bear was a challenge)

Trying to stand up and hold the polar bear at the same time!! Big accomplishment!

oops, I spoke a little too soon, down she went! (again, Tater trying to get in the shot)

and then there she was, right back at it :) I love this baby girl!!!
