School Days

A BIG week for Kerrick this past week. We cheated and turned his carseat around 2 weeks early and heloves to ride facing forward!! Also, this was Kerrick's first week at school full-time. It was a rough start but ended the week great. Tuesday was his first full day and they said he cried on and off all day and when he saw me when I went to pick him up he cried. Then Wednesday they said he did a bit better and by Thursday he was getting the hang of it. Needless to say by the time we get home in the evenings he is exhausted as he has not been taking long naps at school right now. On top of going to daycare he has been sick a bit too since Christmas and it is still lingering some but not nearly as bad as he was last week. Tuesday night he started vomitting right at bathtime and just did it that once, then again on Wednesday night and then Friday night. Thankfully he was undressed in the bathroom each time. Jason and I woke up at 8 this morning and Kerrick was still sleeping and had not made a peep all night, so we thought...when he did wake up at 9 Jason went in his room to find vomit all in his bed, we have no idea how much he had vomitted during the night as his bed was full of dry vomit and it was all on his jammies and in his hair. We felt sooo bad as who knows when he did it because we did not hear him at all last night.
So with being sick and starting school he has been hooked on his pacifier. I was hoping to start making his time with his paci more limited once he got the hang on school but thankfully his teachers at school started taking it away on Thursday! YAY!! And yesterday when I went to pick him up he had gone paci free all day not to mention all night too!! So hopefully we will keep this up and he will never notice his paci is gone!
His teachers said he had a GREAT day yesterday and is now known as the food thief. We all know the boy loves to eat! Well they said he would have ate already and then some of the other kids would be eating their snacks and Kerrick would walk over to their chair grab some food and then run off! Too Funny!! And they quickly found out the boy loves to dance as he was dancing for them. And he has learned to clap with his hands open, so he likes to clap and then expect you to clap back with him!
We hope you all are off to a great start of the New Year!!
