3rd Trimester

It is hard to believe how fast time is flying...........here is the latest belly shot.  She is moving around so much and it is such a great feeling!!!!!  She is very active especially at night so I have been putting headphones on my stomach playing music and I actually think she chills out.  After 3 or 4 songs the movement subsides (a little).  For about two weeks, I had a hard time sleeping but now I am sleeping through the night.  Ken has been home this past week burning some leave time so it has been wonderful spending time with him and doing things around the house.

We have had workmen at the house doing some repairs.  We had a lot of heavy rain and found some leaks in the ceiling (luckily in places where the water would not have damaged our stuff).  They fixed the holes and came across a few bat nests which would explain the running around and little noises at night.  I saw a baby bat over a month ago and did not think anything of it until we kept hearing noises in our bedroom late at night.  The guys got rid of the nests and placed garlic on the roof.  I guess we can uses crosses next if the garlic does not work. :)

The new ambassador and his family have arrived in country so Ken is looking forward to working with him.  We have a function to attend tomorrow evening to welcome them so we are looking forward to it.  

I drove for the first time on Wednesday.  I think Ken was a little more nervous then I was.  Not that he does not have confidence in me but the drivers here (especially bus/taxi drivers) are very ignorant and erratic.  You always have to be on your guard.  I did not even realize it had been 3 months since I drove, but I did well and feel confident.  We still have our Florida tag and waiting to get our Honduran tag.  It makes me a little nervous to drive with the tag so I hope with get the country tag soon.
