Its official.

Octavia is the most perfect thing I have ever seen in my life. Something was just so great about going to the clinic today and seeing her and Priscilla...and I get to be her gringa sister! 
She's teeny tiny, has lots of dark hair, blue eyes, and doesn't look like an alien...a rare quality for newborns, I think. I am actually excited for them both to come home tomorrow night :)


Until then, I'm just chillin' at the apartment with Balty and Patricio. It's 11:49 PM and we're all still awake just hanging out. Today Balty and I really bonded at the clinic/hospital. He discovered the beauty of my iPhone and the games that come along with it. He also told me that he wants to spell his name like this: "Balti" not this: "Balty". NOTED.

Patricio folded my laundry. Wow, having a dad in the house is nice! This is just another new and exciting experience to add to the list. What a great week I'm having.

When Priscilla is gone- I get back into "college" mode. This morning I made my own breakfast and even LIT THE GAS for a hot shower. Props to LJ for showing me how to do that last night when she came over. I'm thinking another Wii party is coming up in the near future.

I think I'll get to sleep- tomorrow we have such an exciting outing planned with classmates. A visit to the National Congress of Chile...

To get some extra Spanish practice in I took Balti's advice and am reading his comics each night before bed. They are really helping!
