More of our little guy

Charlie has already had a number of visitors -- Celena, Hillary, Jay and Jackson visited yesterday. We didn't get a picture of Celena or Jay (that just means that you both will have to come visit us again soon), but here are a few of the Adams family:

Charlie already loves Ellie:

Charlie loves being swaddled!
