Dasicho Bib!

Betcha don't know what a dasicho bib is:-)  All in good time...all in good time...

We have had a big past few days:

  • B's Dr's appt--where he had his first blood test
  • Finding out that B has lost 2 pounds since we got home
  • scooping vials of poop at home for a stool sample (this was all Ababa)
  • family pictures by a professional photographer (really hope they come out well as B's undertaker look was in full swing
  • B's baptism-very exciting for us and our church, but a little stressful for B so we're trying to make time for extra cuddles today
  • a big Fresh Direct order...hey, that's major excitement in our house, especially since our elevator has been being replaced for the past month so we currently live in a 4th floor walk-up:-)


I'll probably post about each with photos (oh yeah, I totally took pics of the poop vials)...but for now, just know that we've been busy... very, very busy and our gem of the week in terms of B-isms is "Dasicho Bib".

What is a dasicho bib you may ask?  Well, "dasicho" means "bug" in Amharic, "bib" is pretty self-explanatory.  So, what's a "bug bib"?

Well...when B was getting his blood drawn at the Dr. they told him it would feel like a bug bite.  Then they put a bandaid over the draw site.  For some reason B decided this was a bib.  So, he started calling all bandaids "dasicho bibs"...

That's my funny, funny little boy!:-)
