HAPPY BIRTHDAY DENISE!!
Dear Journal,

Logan played his first game of "this little piggy" this afternoon - he found it just as fun as Max did almost exactly 3 years ago! :)  It is amazing - the bonding room is like 110 degrees and he has 3 layers on!!  I'm ready to strip down to my undies!!!  I'm dying!!  So I went ahead and played a game with pulling off his socks - so we wouldn't get in trouble!  I truly need to bring something other than apple juice for him to drink - he doesn't keep it down - but did the orange/banana/pineapple from the other day - so I'm smuggling it in tomorrow! :)  His teeth have come in a bit - two on the bottom - so eating his cookies is getting easier, but somehow I still manage to have as much cookie on me as he eats! ;-) We've also been taking in a jar of baby food and he likes that. :)  We had bought him a 6/9 month outfit - I put it on him today - the pants are long - but the shirt is snug - so he'll "match" my other two kids - one size smaller on the bottom than on top! :)

On Friday, we are going out with our coordinator and her husband (driver) to dinner for my birthday! :)  Wish I could have a Key Lime Pie Martini from Max Doogan's in Aurora!  I hear my neighborhood Keno group is having Keno at Tina's!  Have a drink for me. :)  29 again ;-)  By the way - I've started Keno in Kazakhstan!  The picture from yesterday with the three of us - is the core group - we're venturing out today to get 9 more players!  I'm hosting and have a GREAT recipe for Horse Sausage! ;-)

It has been "do-able" as a friend of mine said about going to Semey - not easy - but do-able.  Lets face it after a week on a luxury cruise ship - you miss your family, your bed, etc!  I just wish the judge would take into consideration the week we are here between bonding and court for part of our post court time - but that is a dream. :(

Keep the good thoughts and prayers going - so far - everything seems to be going good. 

We love ya,
Cyndi
