Today

The most exciting news today is that Luke's birthday is tomorrow!!! He is turning 14!

Today, Minte waked up at 5:30! We're getting there! (He is so messed up by the time difference that his sleeping times are weird).

Dad and Mom changed him, (and his sheets AND their sheets as he had a diaper problem), and gave him his milk and a bath.

Then they played with him and us kids started playing with him and squeezing him as we got up from bed. He is so happy!

Minte had his wheat cereal and afterwards figured our how to open the plastic wrap around a case of gum. He was proud of himself. (Mom took away the gum and he started screaming. So she told him to say please so he quickly rubbed his belly and got the gum back! He is so smart!) (Later, too, Dad was holding him as he screamed and squirmed so Dad asked him if he wanted to get down and Minte quickly shut his mouth and pointed to the ground. He is catching on to things so fast!!!!) (Okay, one more thing, yesterday we gave him one of those  straw cups and he quickly caught on to how it worked)!! 

Now he is leaving to go to the doctor, so I have to go.
