Middle Biscuit Is Six!

     Hello my poor neglected readers!  I literally have not sat down at a computer in about two weeks...pretty much since my last post!  Now that summer is officially here in this household, I hope to be a little more faithful about my blogging!  At least until school starts back again...

     I couldn't let the day go by without posting about our Middle Biscuit!  He has been doing a lot this weekend...and today is his sixth birthday!  Last night was his graduation from K5 as well!  He is officially a first grader, Tiger Cub, and six-year old!  We found out that the five baby lion cubs' birthday was today too, so we decided to head to the zoo for a fun birthday date!

     Middle Biscuit was probably my scariest baby.  I was convinced that even though I was doing fine with the first one, there was no way I could do two!  One was easy...but two was another story!  I spent many nights during the pregnancy going over all the "what ifs."  "What if they're both crying for me at the same time?"  "What if the baby's eating & the toddler needs his diaper changed?"  "How am I going to take two of them somewhere?"  Hubby patiently encouraged me all throughout that things would work out.  And sure enough, he was right!  Soon our little family of three was a family of four!

     Right from the start, Middle Biscuit was a happy, content little guy.  He's still pretty laid back--probably the most calm one in his family!  Nothing much riles him up, and he is happy to play by himself with his toys.  He's our artistic one, likes to spend time drawing and coloring.  He almost always has a happy smile--when he's "plugged in" that is!  He spends a lot of time in his own little world...oblivious to what is going on around him!  And when the TV is on you may as well forget even trying to get through to him!  :)

    *Happy Baby!  

*Fun on the beach!

                   *Jump for joy--now we're six!

     So, happy birthday to our Middle Biscuit!  And here's the poem we read to our six-year-olds on their birthday.  :)

The End

When I was One,

I had just begun.

When I was Two, 

I was nearly new.

When I was Three, 

I was hardly Me.

When I was Four, 

I was not much more.

When I was Five,

I was just alive.

But now I am Six, and clever as clever.

So I think I'll be six now for ever and ever.
