Most of you know that I have been doing a Spanish fast course. It has been 7 weeks of full time language school which has been quite interesting. Even in my Masters program I never sat in one class for the whole day with the same subject. My class consisted of me, one other student and a native Spanish speaker so you can imagine that there were not many people to hide behind.  My class focused on situational conversation such as calling a taxi, going to a doctor, going to the market, bargaining, and conducting other daily business.  I am proud to say that Jackson and I have completed our classes. I’m sure his developing brain has been so overwhelmed with both Spanish and English..poor little guy. Tomorrow I will take my oral evaluation and then it will be self-study from here on out until we are at post where I will likely resume classes.  Seth will continue Spanish until we leave for post so he is going to be much more advanced than the two of us!  He will be more equipped for issuing visas, and other government things. He might have to rely on Jack and me to get him food and transportation!

We are excited that Jackson has remained inutero since he gave us a few scares in the early weeks of my Spanish classes. I can remember telling the doctor when we were in the hospital for monitoring that I just needed 6 more weeks for my Spanish class then I could rest. The time has come and gone and Jackson has remained happy and healthy so we are so thankful.  We go to the doctor tomorrow so we will try to post again if there is anything noteworthy!
