Settling in



Lilian is adjusting just fine to life here in Costa Rica. Although we are still in Central time zone, we've had to adjust our daily schedule just a bit. Life here starts when the sun rises...which means Lilian's new wake up time is somewhere between 5 and 6 am. Check out this video, and see what I mean...



It is a common practice for people to pay mariachi bands to play songs outside of people's homes for their birthdays. This could happen at anytime during the night--1 am, 2 am, 5:30 am--whenever. What wife would not be appreciative to know that her husband loves her enough to wake her in the middle of the night with sweet sounds of Costa Rica?


Lilian is really enjoying having a playmate around all of the time. Hannah is 18 months old and is a great little hostess. She loves to give hugs and is even really good with sharing her toys. She's also really easy to talk to; Lilian loves having heart-to-hearts with her. I don't even want to know what she's told Hannah about all of us. 

  


Lilian has also become Miss Social Butterfly. At our IMB Christmas get-together at the language school, Lilian had a great time running through all of the kids. She got to meet a lot of knew friends and was so excited to see old friends that we met in Orientation. 

So. things are going well. We are all really excited to get in a place of our own next week. We hope by the 12th to be showing you pictures from our place!
