We've been in Dar es Salaam for a little over 2 weeks now waiting. We waited as late as we felt we could (38wks) to come because I kind of suspected Silas would take after his brother and be late! Today is my official "due date" and still no signs of his arrival. Carson has been able to accomplish some editing on a video he filmed before leaving Geita, but otherwise our time has been spent trying to keep all 3 of us sane which mostly means Jude. He is an active kid so we try to do things that let him use all that energy as often as possible. Here are some pictures from a day last week when we took him to a playground. It's in the middle of a shopping center and pretty cheap.
We also went to a driving range mostly for Carson, but Jude also enjoyed it.
We've been eating as much yogurt as humanly possible and getting ice cream and milk shakes more often than we should!
This week we have a doctor visit followed by a test at the hospital, just to check on things since I'm past due. Later in the week we are moving to a different place to stay for the remainder of our time here. I'm sure we'll also try to go to the beach and the playground (several times... did I mention that the best milkshake in the world can be found next to that playground?) Then, next Sunday Carson's mom arrives!
Hopefully, I'll be posting pictures of Silas soon.

The one in the tunnel is my favorite. It's like he's saying, "See me? See me?" Looks like he's having a good time waiting on little brother. And, of course, I can't wait to see pictures of Silas!!
