ZACH ATTACK

So I'm not sure how many of you know, but I recently started watching this little guy a couple times a week. He is just adorable! Zach is just over a year old and is walking and says "uhh" all day long! He loves Miss Sophie and is so good at entertaining her when she starts to fuss and I am busy. He is a great eater and a great napper (I love that part the best). At first I thought I had gotten myself in too deep, but as it turns out having Zach here helps me keep on top of things. Maybe it's from all those years of working as a nurse and multi-tasking. I find that when he is here I do the dishes, keep the place tidy, I eat regularly, and Sophie naps regularly. Don't get me wrong, it's a ton of work and I don't think I could do it without a lot of help from my wonderful husband, but I think I am learning some very valuable lessons for when I have more children. So here are some pictures of the little guy, in all his glory! In the top picture you'll notice my pancake flipper. After making breakfast one morning he saw it in my hand and decided he wanted it. So now everyday he comes over he wants to play with it!

In this second picture you can see Sophie watching T.V. in her favorite T.V. watching chair. She just sits there hanging out for a while. It's so nice as it gives me a break. Maybe I should feel guilty for letting my 3 1/2 month old watch T.V., but I don't. I'm at the stage where I think, "if it keeps her quite and entertained, so be it!" I think I had actually put something educational on... Baby Einstein. That's good right?
For this one I tried for like a good 5 minutes to get him to smile for the camera. Nope, not even close. Why do kids do that? I don't get it. Sophie does that all the time, she'll be totally smiling and happy and then as soon as she see's the camera she goes stone-faced. It actually makes us laugh. Hopefully she'll outgrow that as Mitch is obsessed with taking videos and pictures of her. I just had an epiphany... maybe that's why she stops smiling; she's tired of being on camera! Either way, hope you enjoyed these photo's of one of the cutest little guys.
