And I only have seven full days left in Kenya, which is super bitter-sweet. I absolutely LOVE these babies to death and leaving them is going to be a sad time. I took lots of pictures of them today!! It was awesome. They are super cute and I wish I could take them all home.

Aren't they lovely!! Man, I love these kids :)
It was a good day chilling with them today. And we even got another volunteer today, Iker from Mexico City and one on Saturday night, Brigitte from CANADA!!!
Funny story:
This morning, Rosemary came into Infant A while we were feeding and said we were getting another volunteer today and she would be sharing a room with Brigitte. I asked, for some reason, "Are you sure the new volunteer is a girl??" Rosemary assured me she was. I turned to Brigitte and said "Well that's good that we know for sure your new roommate is a girl." Then later Kenya (volunteer from New Zealand), Brigitte and I were having guacamole and chapati for supper and we heard the sound of luggage clumping up the stairs. We were all excited to meet her so I went out to introduce myself!! I look into Rosemary's office and see a guy.....well this is awkward!! I introduced myself and I looked at Rosemary, who gave me a "I'm just as surprised as you!!" look. It was hilarious because I specifically asked earlier!! Either way, they each have their own room which is good.
Ended the day with a baby feed and my homemade mandazi!! I have turned into a Kenyan woman, except for the color :)
See you all soon!!!
Love: Rach :)
Oh my goodness!!!! Can you just squeeze them all for me?? Like, scrunch your teeth together too while you are too, because that is definately how I feel when I look and re-look at all of these pics!! Awe Rach, we look forward to having you home, but I'm sure the children their will hold a special place in your heart! Love ya, 7 days, not counting today(its almost over, right?) Beee
