Scratch that Date!

Well, well... Sara had another plan.

At 10:30pm Joy went into labour. She started out at 5 minutes between contractions. We waited until about 3am to call the doctor because Joy had had a period of contractions on Wednesday. After listening to Joy have a contraction over the phone he said to come on in.

After Jean and Richard arrived we headed in. They checked her BP and then pretty much said that, "We and she are ready".

Unlike WDH I was not permitted to go into the OR so I had to wait for the pediatrician to bring her out. She was beautiful. She was 6lbs and 11oz and measured 20.5 inches.

Mommy and Sara are resting peacefully.

Houston, we have a date!

After much waiting and many trips into the capital to visit the doctor .... and have fun ultrasounds performed we now believe we have a date for the c-section.

Barring an early (and unexpected) arrival Joy will go in for the c-section on Wednesday, 24 November, at 7:30am.

We will spend the weekend finishing up any last minute items. I (Ken) am expecting to take off next Wednesday through the following week -- maybe going in to the office for an hour here or there.

The school has been very supportive and has encouraged us to take whatever time we need.

Blessings Abound

The Lord has blessed us with a van! Last week we completed the deal of buying the van from our Yanaga friends... they ended up buying a car from another missionary teacher here at school -- everything just worked out.

To finance this we had to be creative with the finances... we ask that you continue to be in prayer about continued support towards this cause.

We're about nineteen (19) days out from the birth of our newest family member. As I write this Joy is at the baby doctor for a routine checkup (rescheduled twice due to the doctor being called in for surgery).

Preparations for the show continue yet we're looking forward to the down-time between the show and the baby-birth.
