Charlotte pulled herself up in her plaupen this morning and stood all on her own without any help from either of us!!

Charlotte spends the majority of her day in my office during the week. She adores Otis so wherever he goes, she’ll follow. I’ve kept the gate between my office and the hallway open so the pups can come and go as they please and Charlotte was blocked by the bottom bfast of the gate. Well… she figured out how to get over

I found gluten free, organic, non-gmo puffs for Charlotte to snack on while her meals are being prepared.  They are about the size of Cheerios but will melt in a baby’s mouth if it takes them too long to gum them; these are apple flavor.

Above…the before picture. We decided that since she just finished eating it was as good a time as any to trim her bangs.

She wasn’t very happy that she wound up with 2-3 inches cut off.  But I wasn’t very happy either after watching her chubby little hands search her head daily in order to pull out her barrettes or ponytails.

It had to be done.

She quickly got used to her new style.

Even tried to take a picture of herself on her own.

Then I gave her a bath and decided to trim just a little bit more. ..it’ll grow back 🙂

Unfortunately,  Charlotte didn’t want to be Cinderella after all.

Charlotte decided that her first goal of the day was to reorganize all of my magazines that I put in a pile to read later. 

Than after some intense playtime, she decided to relax a bit and watch a video, but it turns out that it was a ruse shop shw could practice her typing skills

She enjoyed a dinner of steak, quinoa and sweet potatoes, with a banana for dessert. Immediately followed by a dip in the tub.

Nothing like a warm and sunny fall day in Florida to put you in the mood for Halloween. Hahaha

Charlotte didn’t quite know what to think or do. The sun was in her eyes the whole time and I only got a few pictures of her looking at the camera. I also took 2 15/20 Second videos.

Excuse the mess 🙂
