Hello my name is...

Charlotte Dean, but you can call me Charlie!


She definitely was the baby Charlie we thought she would be! We always like to see them first and try it on for size and this name fits just right. Dean was her middle name before conception. Girl or boy, Mike was set on using his fathers name! Lets face it... we may never get a little boy!!! And we think it sounds pretty darn cute too!Hopefully grandpa doesn't mind having his name carried on by a sweet little princess!

Charlie is still a dream! So alert when awake and interested in the sounds around her. Cricket is her biggest fan. So loving and in awe. It's all she can do to not smother her with attention and snuggles. Blues a fan as well but just as interested in the cookies and juice here at the hospital as she is with Baby Charlie!

We are both enjoying the peace and quiet of the hospital and the time to bond together! This is a special time for our entire little family! It's fun having a new baby to love up on!

Thanks for all your well wishes!!! Charlie sends her best!!

I still think Charlie Stephanie is cuter, but oh well. Maybe my next neice will be luckier. Whoever is named after me is bound to be my favorite.

Hey, I think since Mike was so set on Dean for a middle name before you were even pregnant, you should INSIST on Stephanie for a middle name with the next one, boy or girl! he he...

Adorable name. Just so cute. And can I say how unfair it is that you look so fabulous 3 hours after having her in the pic below? Seriously, how do you do it?!?

Congrats to you all! She is go beautiful - she looks perfect and so do you!

I love the name - it's so fun! Do you by any chance like the book or movie Charlie? I met the author, Jack Weyland - he was at my sister-in-laws sealing because he's a close friend of my s.i.l.'s husband's fam!

Well I am just so happy for you all!

BTW, Dean is my mom's brother's name and my hubby's dad's middle name - I love it!
