Today was Charlie's 1st day back to work after 2 weeks of paternity leave. He missed Hunter and me like crazy he said :) We missed him terribly too. (But alas, there is a mortgage to pay, right?)
Over the past few days we have done the following:
Daddy read Hunter some books in the rocker chair,
Mommy and Daddy took Hunter to the local coffee shop for a Cup of Joe in the evening (he was a GEM the entire 45 min we stayed there and hung out),
We took Hunter on his 1st stroller ride at sunset,
We visited with Kathy, Tim, Samantha, and Baby Kara (we're excited that these cousins will only be 2 months apart! What great playmates!),
We gave him another sponge bath (~for which he was WONDERFUL. Hunter never cried a bit; in fact, he may have just liked it when we washed his hair - Mom thinks this means he won't pitch a fit for the eventual baptism... we'll see. His hair also dried all spike-y... it was too cute),
And Krista went to a bridal shower for friend Jessica D. with "Auntie" Hilary who was a dear and drove me b/c I am not quite allowed to drive quite yet from the C-section. It was great to see all of my wonderful, women work friends! (They wanted me to bring Hunter, but I told 'em he was with his grandparents... I will bring him by the high school/work in a few weeks.)
Nana and Grandma Lyn and Grandpa Dave also have been over for dinner and over-night visits, which entails providing dinner & helping out with Hunter and those middle-of-the-night feedings. And Mona brought dinner over tonight with her daughter Meredith! What a great network of friends and family we have!
This coming weekend we plan to attend Fall Festival at Cox Farms to pick out pumpkins and enjoy the fall weather. We will have more pix then; in the meantime, please enjoy the attached photos of recent happenings!
Hugs,
Krista, Charlie and Hunter

Great pictures! I really like the one with the sunset behind Charlie. I also like your picture of me holding Hunter and Kara--it's better than the one we took with our camera! I can tell that Hunter does have BIG feet in the picture after his bath! :-)
Hope to see you all again soon!
Love, Kathy, Tim, Samantha and Kara
Hunter looks absolutely adorable, it looks as if he has lots of hair.
Krista, you seem to be doing well. Just keep up that terrific attitude.
Bob and I can hardly wait until Chtistmas, to be able to hold Hunter and Hara.
Love, Mimi and Bob
I love all the pictures. What a great way to keep in touch with everyone. Hunter is beautiful!! You and Charlie both look great!! We are very happy for all of you! How fun for the two baby cousins to grow up together! There is nothing like family! Enjoy your new bundle of joy and we will continue to enjoy looking at the pictures!
Take Care -
Jen, Rico, Pierson and Addie
