Looking Back -- When did Charlotte begin sucking her fingers?

Well, from what I found -- as far back as 6 months old! This is a picture of Charlotte from a couple months ago. She was playing shy girl, but notice the fingers she is sucking on.



Now, this was Caitlyn and Charlotte from our Corpus Christi, TX trip in April 2006. Caitlyn is on the left and Charlotte is on the right, sucking on her fingers. They were a little younger than 6 months old then. I guess she started that habit young!




And, this was a picture I found and I consider it one of my favorites. I love how they are looking at each other. They have their moments now, but they are pretty much inseperable.

Back in Paradise....... Almost

Anyone who knows me, or at least has known me in the last 2 years, knows that my favorite place in the world is Corpus Christi, Texas. I love it there! The night we were supposed to leave there during our vacation in 2006, I cried so much that Chris agreed we could stay another night. And I still cried the night we actually left there. My dream is to get back there - to live. Although I know I cannot afford the houses there that I absolutely love, I just can't see myself living anywhere else but there. And, right now, I am 568 miles or 9 1/2 hours away from it! I got excited as I got near Biloxi, MS. I remembered driving there before and the way it smelled, looked, everything. I would love to be there again. Hopefully while I am here in Louisiana, I can get to Corpus Christi for a visit.

This is a picture I took from my hotel balcony in 2006. This is Corpus Christi Bay. Believe it or not, my hotel was a $60/night Super 8 and we had this awesome view!


As for Louisiana, I am in the most boring town in the whole state! There is nothing here and I mean NOTHING! I saw a lawn decorated for Christmas with a crab and shrimp. And a sign advertising ALLIGATOR SAUSAGE! WTF is that?? Never mind, I really do not want to know!

So, here's to hoping that I soon am back in paradise. Or what my version of paradise is........... Although, Louisiana wasn't that bad, until I got out of New Orleans and realized that my home for the next 3 months is in a swamp!
