So lately it has been births galore in my neck of the woods. Women have children very often here, so I see new babies alot at the clinic and programs. But this month my neighbor had twins. Both cute and healthy! I get to hold them on occasion and then give them back when they cry, good deal. I also found out that my other neighbor is pregnant. So I am going to get skilled at babies in my time ;) And our cat just had kittens! Supercute. After 6 weeks we were able to wean the kittens and give them to people in our village that wanted them to help bring down their rat problems ;) So maybe something is in the water with all these babies coming ;) No worries though, I filter and boil out water ;) Family planning is also key ;)
Otherwise we have been doing well. We changed travel plans and our now planning on going to lake taganika to snorkel. It should be beautiful and again I'm looking forward to water. Work is coming along with my NHCs and clinic and I'm starting to plan the TBA training.
Rob is cute as ever. I am now is official haircutter, and I have to say that I'm getting pretty good at it ;) He has been in a crepe making stage lately, so my breakfasts have been amazing lately ;) We did a short life skills and basketball camp with some other volunteers, which was fun. And I helped show American culture by being a cheerleader for Rob on the court ;)
I found out from some other volunteers that people can send packages in a 'flat rate' package thats blue and white from the states and it will be $35 no matter how heavy. So if you are thinking of being real nice and sending a package please use that because packages can be real expensive otherwise.
I think that's all for now. Hope all is well where you are
P.s. Mom and Stacy, I hope you had wonderful birthdays!!! Love you
