We got to meet some very nice folks from Waxahachie, Texas who are down to visit. And our friend, Carlos, offered a beautiful prayer for Isaac. Many of the folks in this church know what kind of anguish we went through during the pregnancy, so there were lots of prayers of thanksgiving for a healthy, perfect little boy.
When we got home, Isaac got a feeding, then Mommy got a nap. Matt and Isaac hung out in the hammock for a little while, then Matt got some more work done in the courtyard. There sure are a lot of rocks here!!!
Anyway, this evening will be our traditional pizza night, then tomorrow starts earnest preparations for the Wichita Falls team. Even though the hospital received their travel dates MANY months ago and has gotten at least three reminders since then (one in the last month - when they wrote a letter to the Colegio de Medicos informing THEM that the team is coming), they will likely act as if it's the first time they've even heard of this team coming when we remind them tomorrow. So that'll be fun.
And it continues to be a hoot watching Isaac. He finally surpassed his birthweight today, tipping the scales at a robust 6 lbs 9 oz this morning, just before breakfast. So we're up one net ounce in 18 days. But the trend is in the right direction and we know it'll only take off from here...
Pics... We're not sure exactly what the thought process was on either of these two pictures, but they're cute anyway.

That boy is looking GOOOOD! Must take after his grandpa. Mom compared his picture to Matt's at the same age - oh my gosh!
I'll be anxious to see the pictures of the court yard when you're finished.
Enjoy this week with just the three of you.
Love Yah!
Dad & Mom
His Grandpa??? No way.

Wow! I can't believe how much he looks like your Dad, Matt! Can't wait to see the real thing!
Take care,
