23 Week Doctor's Visit...

This morning I went to Corpmed Medical Centre in Lusaka....I saw Dr. Christine MacDonald, an OB who is from Scotland. She practices part time and also runs an orphanage full time with her husband. They have taken in 26 street children from Lusaka. She is a neat lady and Josh and I really enjoyed meeting her today. Baby Rives is doing well. I had my urine, blood and blood pressure tested and everything looks perfect. Baby's heartbeat is nice and strong too. Dr. MacDonald had a hard time finding it at first because baby was moving around so much! Josh took a few pictures with his iPhone of the clinic...

Waiting to pay....my visit cost 450,000 Kwacha (about $90)...If only it was that cheap in Dallas!

We are extremely thankful for a good report today for baby and I! Baby Rives, you are extremely loved here in Zambia...

My girls love you...
And Agness loves you! She wants a baby sister really bad...
