GRACE plus One welcomes the New Year

It is a new year 2013.  Like some of you, we just got around to recognizing that.  It has been busy around the Ferraro household this past month with never a moment to spare.  Once we finish one round of feeding, it seems like the next one starts.  Meryl started back to work (John takes that day off), so it never feels like we have a day off.  But, we couldn't be having more fun or feeling more blessed.  Every night when we finally hit the bed for 4-5 hours of sleep, Meryl and John ask each other the same question, "Can you believe we have 6 children?"  The answer is the same every night.  "No".  LOL. 

Gianna is learning to be more gentle and she genuinely seems to enjoy being around her brothers and sisters.  I know she can't wait until they can go outside and play with her.  One of her hobbies lately has been collecting worms with daddy when he is working in the yard/garden.  She also enjoys exploring her very active imagination in her new "cafe" and "house" in her playground.  Daddy and Gianna will take turns taking orders and making food for each other.  Gianna also likes to call Daddy daily at work and just tell him about her day and she always asks when he is coming home.

Grace is getting bigger every day and hitting new milestones. They are 3 1/2 months now.  They like to stay up longer and play.  They are "cooing" and trying to make noises.  They like to sit in their Bumbos. It won't be long before they are crawling and running around the house!! 

Here are some updated photos with Grace plus Gianna.
