Ohhhh hello there.  I’m all snuggled up writing you this from my bed on this cozy day, thanks to nap time!

I am so happy to be sharing this little guy, Charlie, with you today.  He was born a few weeks early, but had he been born three months earlier, he would have been my neighbor!  Sad but true, one of my favorite Boston families left me here all alone and moved back to Canandaigua before they welcomed their second little peanut, here, and I miss them terribly.  But I’ll stop making them feel guilty and just tell you that I am thrilled that I will still get to visit them when I make trips back home and that I got to introduce their little man here to the world for them.  Kristen, I think you know how happy it makes me to see you as a mama.  You are so compassionate and Emmy and Charlie are lucky they are yours!  I know you and Ben will continue to make so many happy memories with these two.

Here he is, world!  Mr. Charlie-Man

Look at her face…eeeeek!

Right back at ya, Emmy-Babe.
Ben and Kristen, congratulation sooooo much!
