quick bebo update

Actually, it's a family health update, but we are celebrating a small miracle of our medicaid going through in less than a week when we were told it would be over 3 months. It's this huge mystery because they said it wouldn't speed anything up being pregnant- and they went out of their way to make sure we understood they were currently backlogged in a big way.
However it happened, we are beyond thankful.

Also... we decided to go with Denver Health, the big hospital (gasp), because they have a clinic about a mile from our house that uses ALL MIDWIVES!!! They aim for fully natural child birth, are okay with whatever crazy birthing techniques you can come up with (they specifically mentioned a toilet birth?!), are super respectful of patient rights, and the delivery rooms are very family friendly. I couldn't be more joyous how this is all working out
(now Bebo just needs to cooperate by growing well his last trimester and coming out smoothly :) The midwife today did ask that we get an ultrasound to check in on Bebo since he's quite small (surprise!) but she didn't seem overly concerned about it given Abby's size and all.

Just in case anyone REALLY wants the scoop on Denver Health- here's the website with everything you ever wanted to know :)
Thanks for love and prayers that have brought us to this amazingly blessed place in our lives.
