Time is flying by, but it still seems like yesterday when we brought this little bundle home! Zerrick is very alert and starting to grab at things near his hands. Of course he immediately takes them to his mouth. He has started sucking on his fists a lot more and occasionally I have seen his thumb in his mouth. He loves to stare at his brown bear holding a soccerball and a painted name board that I have on the wall which is mostly black and white. Zerrick has quite a happy disposition over all. He loves to see faces and will follow them around the room. Of course he has 6 different faces to look at so he is hardly ever bored. Zerrick is quite a good sleeper so far. He will usually sleep 6 hours at night and then a good nap in the afternoon when his sister takes a nap. He also takes several little naps throughout the other parts of the day & night. I can't complain much! Over all, my main complaint is that when I am nursing Zerrick, the other kids (even the 2 yr. old) knows it is nuring time and they test my limits because they know it is hard for me to come and dicipline them. The phrase "this too will pass" comes to my mind and sometimes calms me down, but not always! That's when it becomes a "Calgon" moment! Life with 5 kids is definately busy!
