just a few photos. today saturday was been nice and quiet for the most part. yesterday however was pretty exciting with the riots in Kampala (check the news online if you missed it) we drove into Kampala just as it was getting started. at one point we drove past a crowd with people running etc. then the entire time we were in the city, our driver was getting calls to update us on the situation...it got worse all throughout the day. We were at the IOM --a required dr.s appointment for the Embassy. Our dr was stuck in all the traffic so he was hours late and we didnt get seen until after the office usually closes for the day. then on the way home we saw everything smouldering on the sides of the highway (i use the term loosely but that's what they call it). lots of police patrolling etc. there were empty tear gas bottles etc. good times. we were not afraid though. we knew that this is God's timing and if He sent us now then we will be protected now. Also it was a blessing that the court date was postponed bc Friday would not have worked anyway with the riots etc.
their preferred method of sleeping is on Momma. I usually have to lay with them to get them to sleep for nap or nighttime. they are potty trained but have each wet the bed through their diaper at night! we bought better diapers today.
they clap and sing "yum, yum" when it's time to eat. they make sure the other one has enough and share food and milk, except when they dont, and then they fight (normal brothers!)

yes this is an anthill
twins? could be. in case you are wondering they are both right about 30lbs. they can wear size 3T just right now. 2T is too short sleeved and 4T is too baggy. They are skinny but LOVE -cant stress that enough- to eat so may likely be fatter when we return home
. Hayden is on penicillin for an infection. And now that he trusts us is very good about his meds.

SOOO glad to hear from you! I knew you would be traveling to Kampala Friday and was very worried since you hadn't posted in a few days. I prayed that it was just lack of internet access but there certainly is some scary stuff happening there! Gram, Mom and Jackie all asked if I had heard from you so I know I wasn't the only one worried! Thanks for posting! Miss chatting with you on my day off! Love you all!
ReplyDeleteSo glad that the power is now functional. Glad for the update as we were well aware of trouble in Kampala. As you indicated..God is in control and His timing is perfect. We are heading home from Newport within the hour. The week was wonderful but, of course, too short! Much love to all 4 Brimers. Dad (and the ladies)
ReplyDeleteThanks for such a great update! We love you. We called gramps and gramma Brimer to see if they knew any thing. I forgot they were in Chicago woke them up probably. Anyway Nancy and I are planning to take our grands to the [park in a few weeks.
ReplyDeleteHannah was here and tried to post but it rejected.
