The latest news...

Well its been a while since the last post. I know most of you have quit watching the blog but for the few that keep watching, here is an update.

Mina is doing great. She continues to develope and learn new things. She is almost walking. She actually can walk on her own but when she sees that she has walked a little, you can see the "oh shit" on her face and she sits down. She can give kisses and hugs but of course it is on her schedule.

Mina is a great eater. There are not too many things that she wont eat. Strawberrys are on thing for sure. She likes strawberry flavor, but not the real thing.

She usually goes down for bed between 8 and 8:30 and is up between 6 and 7am. Not too bad. We are down to one nap a day for a couple of hours in the early afternoon.

I have been taking her to the pool and she loves the water. She really likes the deep end. The kiddy pool sucks. I hold her and we move though the water. She loves to be thrown up and caught. Ill leave her drop till just her head is out. We are working on kicking alittle.

Suz is falling into motherhood quite well. As with all new jobs, the first week is rough and you always have to try different things to see what works and what doent but she is doing a great job. It is really tiring this parent thing.

Other than that its the usual kid stuff. We (Susan and I) go around singing the silly songs that all her toys play. You just cant get them out of your head. We are even starting to get some of her books memorized.

Thats all for now. I will keep updating the blog but please, if you are reading and viewing the pictures (Stacy), please post a comment from time to time so I know someone is out there reading.

Michael (Susan and Mina)
