Visit with Carleen

Tante Carleen, Bryan & Quinn came to visit with Brixton yesterday.  
Carleen couldn't believe how big he's gotten since she last saw him.  
Quinn was slightly interested...but he had much more fun playing with his legos.

Lucy Turns Three!

Image
We went to a baby shower and they had a bouncy house for all the kids. There weren't that many kids using it though, so Lily was nice enough to take Brixton in there for his first time. He LOVED it! I know, I know...Brixton isn't wearing any pants. It was SUPER hot and he was wearing jeans so I just decided to take them off. A bit trashy, but we were around family ;) The next day, we had Lucy's birthday party at Hacienda Hughes. It was a pirate theme, and true to form, Dad had to create something EXTRAVAGANT for the kids to enjoy. So he drew a giant cardboard cutout of a pirate...complete with a 3D bird and doubloons! Kaiya and Delia A very fun potato sack race! Pinata time! Here's Lucy enjoying her loot while she waits patiently to open her presents...I think Brixton is wondering where his candy is! Look at the plane! Brixton was very happy to sneak some of Fisher's blueberries! A potato sack race just for Lucy and Brixton! Delia is attempting to make a ...

Happy New Year!

We had a fantastic New Year's Eve; Nana Noni took the grandkids for their annual NYE Sleepover.  Here's a pix of the kids at "midnight": Since we were kid-free, we went to see The Hobbit at Cineopolis with Angela and Dan.  It was super swanky and we determined that we will continue to see our annual movie at this theater.  Those seats are awesome!  New Year's Day was celebrated at THE BEACH!  Toni & Marc took their trailer down there a couple days after Christmas for an entire week.  They were so fortunate to have fantastic weather...the temperature was a nice 73 degrees when we were there!  The kids (as usual) had a blast and we had a fantastic time.  What a way to celebrate the New Year!  In cancer-related news, I was supposed to have my second chemotherapy treatment today (Tzaddi's birthday) but it was cancelled.  Unfortunately, our insurance changed on 1/1 and all autho...

One Chemo Down...and a Mohawk!

Image
I had my first chemotherapy treatment on 12/12.  The port was placed the day prior and that whole procedure wasn't too bad.  I just love being in the drug-induced twilight phase!   Here's a picture of the port.  The bandage is covering up the incision and you can see the lump right under the bruising.  Basically, it's a catheter they put inside my vein so they don't have to stick me with an IV every time I go.   My Oncotytpe Dx score came back on the low end of the high recurrence rate (score was 32).  So I have a 21% chance of distance recurrence without chemotherapy...so Dr. Saleh stuck with my original treatment plan and didn't make any changes.  Hopefully the chemo does it's job and my horrible little cancer cells stop multiplying and landing in other locations! Here's the port in action.  All the nurse did was prick my skin (directly on the lump) with the needle and hooked me up to all the meds!   The whole proce...
