Do they make bumper stickers for this?
Over the weekend, Luke hit perhaps his biggest milestone yet [
9.9Mb Quicktime movie]. I seriously could not be more thrilled.

QotM. #0027:
Luke: "Mmmmm, what's that smell?"
Mommy: "Blueberry muffins. I made them for breakfast."
Luke: "They smell delicious!"
{singing} Muffins are good! Muffins are good! Muffins are..."
"You like that song, Mommy?"
Mommy: "Yes, I do."
Luke: "How about you sing it?"
- Luke
There are two things I want to point out about this entry. First of all, that this is a pretty typical conversation with Luke - constant talking that lasts about 12 hours until he goes to bed at night. He will always find something to talk about to fill the space between his breaths.
Second of all, Luke is very into smells nowadays. A lot of conversations start off with a huge sniff that basically sounds like he's blowing his nose in reverse and a "What's that smell?" Typically it's something good, but occasionally it refers to Silas's lunch or my feet.

Hear ye! Hear ye!
I am so happy to announce that Luke and Silas will have their first ever COUSIN! Yes, it's true! Baby Pavel is about -6 months old, with a due date of August 2, 2006. Josh and Leah told us while they were here for Christmas, but yesterday gave us the okay to blab the news, so here it is! The way they told us was really great, too, but I'll let them tell you about how they did it... Their website has all you could want: movies, ultrasound pictures, the works!
Bonus for Beau and I...this is our first niece or nephew! All of our siblings have gotten to experience this before us, and it's so fun to finally join the club. Baby Pavel has been blessed with incredible parents and an entire extended family who loves him/her very much already. We can't wait!
This ends the constant goading, Josh. I promise. :)
QotM. #0022:
"Thank you for food, songs, drinks...like water, dog food, family, stars in the air just like Venus, to Jesus for helping Mommy feel better, making us healthy and strong, helping Silas eat food...baby food. Amen!"
- Luke's newer, longer prayer. "Songs" have always made it into every prayer he's ever said.
P.S. I had just gotten over a cold - nothing too big, Mom. :)
