Ringing in the New Year!

Charlee's first New Year's Eve and Rose Parade!

Godmother Jillian comes to visit

Charlee's first visit with her Godmother, Jillian Foley!

Christmas is here!

Charlee's first Christmas was a big success! She was a perfect angel throughout the holidays and didn't mind when people fought over having time with her. As you can see from pics below, she was in everyone's arms!

The best part about Christmas? Charlee decided to start smiling right around the holiday. It was the perfect gift on Christmas morning :)

And the next morning with Dad! We can't wait until next year when Charlee thinks the boxes are fun to play with!

Charlee Meets Mimi!

For the first time in years, Mimi (LL's grandma) made the trip down to LA for Christmas. You can tell from the pics, that Charlee is already a HUGE fan of her great-grandma Mimi!

Happy Thanksgiving 2010!

Time for the babies to finally meet! Today, Charlee met Lincoln Stevens and Caroline Delphey. The grandmas couldn't have been happier!

Thank goodness they all had the same passie!

Charlee and Parker's first Thanksgiving. It was a big day at The Kyle's house!

Charlee's first month home

Just a few random pics from Charlee's first month home!

GO CATS!

And... she is quite strong! From the day Charlee was born, she has had a very strong neck. At only a few weeks old, she is doing things babies aren't supposed to do until they are 2 months old!

Lights! Camera! Action! Charlee's 1st Phoot Shoot

HUGE thanks to Lyndsey Hall and Jack & Lola Photography for taking such amazing pictures. At only 11 days old, Charlee had a hard time getting started, but then warmed up to the camera (by falling asleep) and was a super star for the rest of the afternoon.

Charlee meets Grandma Boo!

Charlee Comes Home

November 5 - Just a few days after coming into this world, Charlee is ready to come home!

LL and Pete figuring everything out :)

The proud papa!

Uncle Nater and Auntie M. Charlee LOVES Uncle Nater's "natural pillows" aka. biceps!

Mom's first cocktail in 9 months! Ah, vodka!

So little!

Introducing... Charlee Grace Hartung!

Charlee is here and mom, dad and baby are doing great! A little delivery day fun fact: Charlee shares her birthday with Anthony Kiedis, David Foster, Jenny McCarthy, Lyle Lovett, Penn Bagley (I'm sure Auntie M will be excited!) and Toni Collette. Yes, I'm positive she'll be a STAR!

As many of you know, LL had a scheduled c-section planned. The night before, Halloween, we had a little dinner party at her house and before we left, she made us take down all of the Halloween decorations and put up Thanksgiving decor so everything would look good when she got home. Yes, this is why I love my sister and I'm sure one of the reasons why Charlee will love her too!

She's Almost Here!

Only a few more weeks to go and Baby Girl Hartung will be there. LL & Pete are ready!

LL's Baby Shower!

LL's baby shower! With 40 of LL's nearest and dearest (and Boo, Jillian and Vanessa attending via skype) Baby Girl Hartung's shower was a huge hit!

Big thanks to Megan, Elizabeth, Aunt Jeanie, Aunt Meg and Great Grandma to be Mimi for hosting at the Danes. We played games, dined on family favorites, opened gifts and devoured Dots cupcakes.

From the pictures you can see how much Baby Girl and LL are loved!
