Well, two interesting pieces of news, first, we just had our first false alarm delivery! Isabella is still healthy and apparently happy to stay put where she is (although Dr. Caceras says she could show up any day). Following a bit of frantic packing and a nice fast drive to the hospital Jessie was monitored and checked out by the Doctor who said that everything is fine. Apparently these were the sneaky, start-for-a-few-hours-and-then-stop kind of contractions that can happen in the last days leading up to a real delivery. Praise the Lord for Dr. Caceras speaking English, for his willingness to meet us at the hospital at 10:30pm, and for the clean, friendly, professionalism of “Clinic Santa Fe.” (here in Colombia, clinics are private hospitals - nice, and hospitals are government run hospitals - not as nice)
The second exciting thing is that the very next morning we got our own apartment! It is a really nice furnished place on the ground floor in the more-secure northern part of town, and has two bedrooms and 1 1/2 baths. We will live here for three months and then (cross your fingers) we will move into our little cottage that will be built out at Tenjo. Jessie is delighted to finally have her own place again and unpacked all of Isabella's things getting the second room ready for the baby even before she unpacked her own clothes.
