June in PR day 13

Saturday morning we got up nice and early to get a little work done before the heat of the day. Josh and the boys worked on making a homemade scaffold to be able to redo some of the stucco on the water tower. The boys LOVED being able to use the drill and learn how to make things with their dad. Such a good morning and they got it all done!

Later on Josh and Wilfredo drive down to Costco with Wilfredo’s truck to pick up some mattresses. He was so kind to help us out while we don’t have a truck! We may need to use his services again the future if we need to pick up more furniture. 
While they were gone we got the handles put on the cabinets upstairs and Rhen put together and table and chairs for their bedroom. It’s all starting to look so great up there!
We were all enjoying a minute of down time in the air conditioning when Josh got back from Costco and the kids were running back and forth. Keen ended up slipping on a plastic bag that was laying on the floor and came running in holding his chin. He’d slipped and hit his chin right on the tile floor and ended up with quite a gash. I knew right away that he would need stitches so we took him down to the small hospital just down the road in Rio Grande to have it stitched up. Our first taste of a Puerto Rican ER and it turned out to be a pretty good experience! I’m sure it’s the first of many stops we’ll be making there in the next year! We had a great doctor who was super kind and thoughtful with Keen (who was really nervous) and she talked him through the whole process. He ended up with 3 stitches and did great! Overall a great first hospital trip for us :)

We had planned to go downtown to Old San Juan tonight and the ER trip didn’t stop us. We love being down there and walking the old cobblestone streets! It was a perfect night to be out. The weather was beautiful and we stopped at our favorite pizza place and ice cream shop. 
We’re feeling pretty lucky to be where we’re at and experience something so great with lots of rich history! We look forward to so many more times in this cool city and lots more fun memories ahead!
