The Letter "T"

This blog is brought to you by the letter "T" and the numbers 2 and 8. Why you may ask? Well, the first "T" word we have for you is...

Teeth

Our little man got his first 2 teeth yesterday. They are just barely poking through the gums, but they are there :)

 
 
 
And the second "T" word comes with the number 8. 
Any guesses.
I'll give you a hint...it has 8 legs!
Yep, you guessed it...
 

Tarantula

This big hairy spider was in our backyard this morning.  The picture is after it's untimely death by broom...it looked about 3 times as big when it had its legs spread out...

Chloe wanted to touch it, but I said no.  Here is a picture with her hand to give some perspective for the size.
Ugh.  I hate spiders.

Some pictures of Chloe.  We went for a walk one Sunday on the improved road that they are fixing by our house.

We got to see some flamingos in a lake just outside of Port au Prince.

A friend gave Chloe a ride on his four-wheeler.

Joel is quite content.

Life at Adoration

This past week we could watch the children write their exams. We watched the children play and enjoy the beautiful weather. Another control is done and the students are eagerly awaiting the results that will be given to them this week Thursday. Photos were taken by Melanie De Jonge.

The beach!


Kaliko Resort!  A great pool, a fun beach and friends made this Saturday a day to remember.
Betsy, Drake and Daphka!
Getting buried
