I am not waxing very poetic these days, being too busy driving back and forth across the border.  We had a very exciting time in August hosting people who came to help get the mission house built.  It is all ready to be roofed and stuccoed now, and we hope to be living in Mexico again this winter. 

My sisters gave me a baby shower at which we collected blankets to pass out to new moms in Baja.  We collected two bags full, now I just need to order some more of the lovely little tracts from Rod and Staff about welcoming a new baby.  Although most of the Mexican women we know have small families, there does seem to always be someone who is pregnant, and they are very serious about keeping their babies well covered with a blanket.  I can understand why with all the dust and failed smog test vehicles on the roads.

We are still not sure where we will have our baby.  Readers you may pray and if you have any interesting stories about moving and then having a baby or having a baby while traveling, I would love to hear them.  We are staying up to date with prenatal care at Kaiser, although it will be quite a change having a baby there compared to my last four home births.
