Here's our sweet Mina. I often put Stella on a blanket outside with toys so she can watch her sisters whiz around the yard. Mina always ends up sitting down with Stella and entertaining her. It is incredibly sweet. Stella and Mina seem to look the most alike - only time will tell if their personalities are similar.Mina's had two medical mysteries this past month. First, she told our babysitter that she swallowed a nickel - and when I heard I knew it was true because I remember someone giving her one two weeks before. So off to get an X-ray to make sure the "disappearing nickel" had past - and it had! She loved all the attention and the special ID bracelet she got at the hospital.
The second mystery started with a NASTY smell coming from her nose/mouth. We tried Listerine for breath, saline for cleaning the nose, water up her nose, blowing her nose, went to the doctor who thought it was reflux and were about to fill a prescription for a possible sinus infection. Then, today as we were getting ready to leave the house, I was helping blow her nose, and out came some of her lovey! She had torn a piece of the yarn off the knit bunny she sleeps with and had stuffed it up her nose. WHO KNOWS how long it had been up there! It started smelling about a month ago!!!! So hopefully no more medical surprises anytime soon.
Mina is our "you do it" child! Such a contrast between her and Addie. She loves cuddles and almost requires them (guessing she'll have the love language of touch). She loves to be helped with anything (Alex would insert here - just like her Mom). She is fascinated with books and often sits quietly by herself paging through them. She's also watch as much TV as I would let her so we try not to encourage her couch potato side too much! She gives the BIGGEST hugs at bed time and loves to sit on your lap - especially when you have a book in your hand!
I finally let the girls lay hands on the paper globe decorations I had made for the twins birthday party in April. I knew the inevitable would happen - utter destruction - but I was done with them and they had fun. Plus I didn't feel bad throwing away mutilated paper globes!
