Baby #2

Giving Birth (essentials for the skimmers):

  • Watch our latest video: Episode 5
  • We're back in our country of residence.
  • We've been kinda sick, nothing too serious, but haven't been able to get out and about much since our return.

Catching the Baby (extras for the more detail oriented):


Dear brethren and sistren,

Sorry for the delays in getting this episode to you. I know many of you have been chompin' at the bit for some info on the new one.

So there we were in the delivery room. Racheal was a huffin' and a puffin'. River's head starts to come out and the doctor looks at me and says, "Would you like to catch him?" "Uh huh," i squeezed out, unsure of what he meant. He replied, "Put some glove on." So he stepped to one side and i got there just in the nick of time. On the next push, he fell right into my arms. What an experience! It made me thankful we had the baby here. Most western country doctors wouldn't let you do that.

Since then Fisher spilled juice on our computer. Thankfully, we had purchased Geek Squad insurance with accidental protection. They're going to fix it or replace it for free! However, that means no videos 'til we can send it back, have it fixed, then have someone (a volunteer team) bring it back.


Prayer ReQuests:

  • Life with a new baby in West Africa is stressful to say the least.
  • Thank God for River's health. He's been sick the least since we got back.
  • Fisher and Racheal have impetigo, a skin infection. Fisher's has been pretty bad, but it seems to be clearing up with multiple baths daily and topical cream and antibiotics.
  • Corey and Racheal have a sinus infection that will not go away. Corey's has been going on for 6 weeks and Racheal's just started. Sniff sniff.
'til the whole world hears,
corey reid pendergrass
