September (the rest of the month)

I cannot believe that it is already the first of October! The kids and I decorated for harvest yesterday, as we head into summer here. The seasons are opposite here but I still decorate as if we were home.





Kaden turned three on the 21st and boy is he excited. We have a little rule that the kids cannot chew gum until they are three. He got a batman outfit for his birthday and some other cool things and had his “Super Hero” birthday party this last weekend. About 10 of his little friends came dressed us as some sort of super hero, we even had the “Alpha and Omega” here!!
We are about 9 weeks or so away from the birth of #3 Baby Balocious, as Kaden calls him. We actually have decided on a name though – Carsten (anointed) Timothy (after my dad meaning to honor God) Myers.

My friend Tracey (we are due on the same day, obviously my 3rd, her 1st, right???)
The kids are pretty cute about the baby, they talk to him and kiss my tummy every night. Kylea does the most talking to him, she is so curious and proud that she was a big part of our decision on the final choosing of the name. She is wondering if this baby is going to come out brown since we live in Africa where most of the babies are brown!! I think I set her straight on that one. Pregnancy is going well I feel huge and am still having trouble with vein issues in my legs ahhhhhhh!
Doug is busy lately doing my “honey do list”, as he informs me I must be nesting! Anyways, he is helping to build wardrobes (closets) for seven orphan homes for one of our churches, so he is either playing “Bob the Builder” or “Tim the Tool Man” either way he is pretty handy and super busy with some of the work projects going on here. Good thing he is so handy with all of this stuff, thanks dad Myers!!
