a bit of randomness

1. THANKS for all of the baby love! We are very excited! An update on that coming soon.

2. With the heat, we have seen more animals around our home lately. Thankfully none of the ones in our flat are bad (we have teammates with some that would freak me out!) We have a few geckos that like to call our kitchen and bedroom home now. I love that they are helping with the bug infestation in our kitchen. I do not love when they fall from the ceiling and crawl across my foot, or when I find their poop in our kitchen.

3. I don't think I've ever mentioned our water filter before. We love it and are SO thankful for it! This is one of the purchases we deemed necessary when we moved into our flat. It is one of the top-notch filters you can get. These days we drink so much water!

 4. Amy read in the paper that one of the hotels was having a sushi festival for a few weeks. We went to try it out one night. It was definitely an Indian take on sushi, but still fun!

 5. We have been doing various trainings over the past few weeks. Here is Chad teaching at one of them recently.  

 6. While we miss living in a place with central A/C, we manage the heat ok while we are at home. One of the worst times for the heat is scooter riding. It is already over 100 degrees and we start sweating the minute we walk outside, but then you have to stick that big helmet on and whew! it's pretty hot. Chad snapped this lovely picture while we were getting gas this week. It is so hard to tell temperature from a picture, but maybe you can tell how I was feeling from the look on my face. The heat just makes me mad sometimes!

7. My husband started blogging again after taking about a two year break. He said he just wanted somewhere to write some stuff out. He's been doing it for about 3 weeks and I had no idea! He wouldn't make it public knowledge, but if you want to read what he's thinking these days, you can go here.
