Lay's Crab Chips, the Big Supermarket, and MORE PICS!!!

Here are some pics from our visits...Mattea is relaxing more every day and starting to reach out and interact with all of us.


She really enjoys fruit leather. Once the staff realized it was fruit and not chocolate, they were okay with me giving it to her. I have to break it into tiny pieces.

Chilling in the playroom

Estuardo has lots of fun with the blocks.

A quiet moment.

Some pics of Mattea...

There were three walls full of these little boots all lined up outside Mattea's classroom.

We have improvised on the tub toys.

I keep forgetting to post about the potato chips! Seems the folks here have different tastes--- the top flavors are bacon, chicken, and crab! And they are addicting!!! My favorites are the crab and the bacon. And I thought I was going to lose weight...
Stew has been laid up the past few days with an intestinal bug and still feels too weak to go out, so Estuardo and I ventured to the BIG supermarket today, with the much appreciated help of our driver. It was probably three times the size of the market we have been going to, but our facilitator recommended it because they have uncooked meat as opposed to the ham and smoked meats at the smaller market. The prices continue to amaze me, but I guess it is relative to the lower wages here. I bought some chicken and beef for today and tomorrow. We've mostly been eating ham, potatoes and cabbage up until now so that will be a nice change. My whole cart full of groceries was less than $40. Three huge bagfuls that the driver helped me carry up the four flights of stairs (SPASIBA!!!)
Now I am off to finish up the final week of my online class. I will be glad to have that one stress out of the way.
Prayers for those in the process and especially for the others who are travelling.
Hugs and love to Mom, Serena, Kory, Jesse, Marisol, Enoch, Elijah, Isabella, Ava, and all the rest of family and friends following our journey. See you soon!
