Baby #5!

I can normally see things in ultra sound pictures. Circle and a blob is what I see here. So does not look like a baby! BUT it is!!!! I am calling it my complicated blessing right now. I had the verbal okay to get pregnant from both my new dermatologist and new oncologist. Then I went to see the new oncologist and apparently the melanoma that I had over the summer was much more aggressive than he originally thought. If he had know that he would NOT have given me the okay to get pregnant. I can't do scans or anything being pregnant. He also is requesting that my pathology slides be sent to the best melanoma lab in Pennsylvania. Once again I could use some thoughts and prayers. Hoping that the original diagnosis of those four cells that were in the lymph node just being basic mole cells still remains the same. I had the first OB visit yesterday. Everything is looking great from that end. The little heartbeat was so tiny, but made it all so real. I have been nauseous and VERY tired. A tad bit crabby too.

Elaine has a BIRTHDAY!!!

I can't even believe that I have a 10 year old! How did this happen???? I understand that she isn't a baby anymore, but I have her stuck at 5 maybe 6. She had a good time. Requested Orange chicken for dinner, it was super yummy! Opened presents and had cake after dinner. Overall a great day. Happy Birthday Elaine!

A little of Evan

Evan has figured out that he can "ride" a broom and not just sweep with it.

He cleans. I love it!

Christmas 2010

Warning!!! Picture overload!!!





My parent came for Christmas! We picked them up from the airport on Christmas Eve. We didn't even tell the kids....a couple of times it slipped out but we covered it. Drew did figure it out but boy was he good at keeping the surprise. We had to circle the airport a couple of times and tried to play it off as if I was lost and kept missing the exit. Mom called and talked to Kris and they were loading the back of the car with luggage before the kids even noticed! I even had to tell them turn around. Right when we got home the kids got to open the P.J.'s that they get every year from Grandma and Grandpa. The pictures above were Christmas Eve, the ones below are Christmas morning.



Passing presents out.
















It really wasn't Raisin Bran.

And THE MESS!!!
