Baby Grace.

So, it's official! I talked to Andrew on the phone just a little bit ago and he called the baby Grace! Cute name! Anyways, when I was talking to him he was saying that she still will not suck from a bottle so is having to be fed through a tube. :( Not good. And even if she would be able to suck, Iris doesn't seem to be "producing" anything. So, if you would like, they could definitely use your prayers concerning all of this. Iris was released, from the hospital, today but Grace is not yet released, due to her inability to eat. Andrew said possibly tomorrow but they're not sure. That also creates more "interesting" adventures on this end, if they aren't able to leave tomorrow. :) Food will quickly be running low and so although we have money, we don't have a car. There are people who know that we could possibly need to call them for "help" (the Bornman's friends). If we did do that then they would come pick us up, probably (if I could make enough communication with them). :) If not, we could also walk down the road to the nearest grocery store, that's actually more like a gas station convenience store, to get a few things. But it would be quite a walk, especially with the kids (including a 2 year old) and I've never walked there before....seems a bit iffy. :) Andrew said if we needed to do that we could also take the wheelbarrow to sit Josiah in (and then the groceries on the way back). Now, wouldn't that be a scene?! Well, then again, in Mexico it seems that pretty much anything goes so we'd probably not even raise any eyebrows! lol! :) So, all that to say, you can pray if you want. :) Pray for baby Grace to keep growing and to be able to suck from a bottle or otherwise and for Iris to be able to feed her baby and then for us 4 "kids" who are back at home. Thanks so much! I'll keep you posted!

LOL! You make me laugh, always! :) Of course you would love me to take the wheelbarrow to the store with 3 kids just so that you can enjoy the "story" that's bound to follow! HA! :) We'll see. I'm not even sure if they'll be coming home tomorrow or not! And there are so many friends around here that continue to say, "If you need anything, anything at all, just call us!" So, I could just do that! lol! And tell me this, would it be wrong to call the one person who is a married guy but is quite attractive?! LOL! I figured you'd like that, L.A.! :) Talk to you later gator! Love you!
