November

well... it's november... My month has been rather slow... but crazy.... There have been a lot of busy busy shifts at the birth room... but... I haven't caught any babies... well.... 3. But compared to last month when I caught 10 babies... 3 doesn't seem like a whole lot. I haven't caught a baby since the 7th of November!! But, my two amazing continuities gave birth this month. The second, Twinkie Mae, my 15 year old... she just had her birthday, she's 16 now... She named her sweet baby girl Sarah Fate! :-) She had the most amazing birth, and she was such a amazing laborer... she took directions well, and did just amazingly. Here are some pictures of that baby...

So... my camera has some sort of short in it so... I don't have many pictures from the last ... long time... but, I cut my hair off... and you can see in those pictures. I'm not sure what made me do it... but... yeah, there it is. It's already growing back nicely. :-)

The clinic has been bustling as usual. And we have just started our "Secret Angel" season again. Secret angel is a name draw where we write encouraging notes (etc.) for a person we have selected... I'm excited, it's a really fun time. Not to many Filipina participants this year though... A few only :-(. It will still be fun. Christmas in the Philippines is a very exciting time of year! It starts in Septem"ber" and lasts through all the "ber" months!! So we have been in full Christmas swing since I got back from vacation! I was just at the mall yesterday and there was a Christmas parade!! Wow! :-) Anyway, it's time to get back to the homework!! I hope you are all well, and had a wonderful thanksgiving! God is SO faithful to us and never stops giving us more and more reasons to be thankful!
