I have some tropical virus that causes one to break out in an itchy rash from neck to knee. It's pretty awesome, since I can't take any medication. Kelvin checked my work for mistakes yesterday and essentially couldn't make sense of half of it. Turns out, when your entire torso has a low-grade constant itch, concentration is difficult. YAY!
Alhena is taking little steps when she stands up (holding onto things) and has her 13th tooth coming in. She's a growing maniac. She now says puppy and goodbye, and is making a lot of great noises. She loves buttons and reading books, which is super cute.
We're in the end of our trip and sort of in "go go go" mode, so not much else to tell. I am going to get to attend a two day conference in the city on homelessness and some of the barriers the homeless face (including a track that follows domestic violence). I don't know much about it or who's running it, but got connected through the woman living out here helping victims informally. So we'll see how it goes. Unless my rash sticks around and then I may be too itchy to be seen in public for a full day :)
Here are a couple of additional photos! Won't be long now - looking forward to seeing everyone soon!
