This morning Colvin actually did a summersault. He was standing on his head and bent too far forward. I sure wish I could have caught that on tape. I'm sure there will be more to come. They have been so busy today. From the looks of my house, they have picked up, played with, and carried around every single toy they have. It looks like there was a major toy explosion. Hopefully this means they will sleep well tonight.

This morning they got their first dose of another culture. Our new neighbors from India had a house blessing ceremony and invited us over. I believe that we were the only people there that weren't Indian and it was a very full house. It was very interesting and beautiful. The ceremony was performed by their priest in the language of Megh*alaya. They said they are of the Christian faith. It was beautiful and sounded like song the entire way through. They shook incense throughout the house and sang and chanted. The women were all in their beautiful saris of every color. The boys and I all found it very interesting to watch and listen.

Well, I better get off the computer and make some dinner for the boys before they start yelling at me. I'm running late as it is.
