Weekend in DC

This past weekend I spent in DC. Christina (my roommie) and I drove down Thursday for a Doctors Without Borders information session. I've had this organization at the back of my mind since I decided to apply to midwifery school. They have a strong presence in Haiti (before and after the earthquake... Click here to donate to keep funding their international efforts) and recently I've started thinking more about the possibility of joining. Trouble is that you need 2 years post-graduation experience (a good idea, frankly) and you can't go with a spouse or children. So, those timelines don't work together very well. But, placements are generally 6 months to a year, so it wouldn't be as long as the Peace Corps committment.  It was a great information session and gave me something to think about.

Otherwise, I spent the weekend at Natalie and Andrew's house, playing with "my" sweet little Audrey. I've posted about her before. She's 10 months now and is mobile - crawling everywhere and even starting to pull herself up into standing. Soon that little chica will be walking - heaven help mama and daddy then!  Here are some great pictures of that gorgeous girl:

BATH TIME!

This week is Natalie's 30th birthday. I was happy to be able to go down close to her day to celebrate. Of course, I had to bake a cake and sing a round of "Happy Birthday".  :)
