life's not the breaths you take.....
















It has been awhile since I wrote but that is just how it goes. I am not much of a writer, those of you who know me know I am a talker;) Life has been busy. We went to Carlsbad and had a great time. We saved lots of money by bringing our own food (and our sanity....cause going out to eat with a 2 year old and an 8 month old=not fun), we went to Sea World twice and Lex loved watching the dolphin show, pets rule, and shamu. She will tell you all about how the whales at the dolphin show splash everyone. My mom even got to pet a dolphin! It was awesome! Ty has started crawling, teething, and drinking out of a sippy cup. I am not sure if I am excited for a new phase or sad that he is growing up so fast:( I know that is what they are supposed to do but sometimes freezing time should be an option! John is super busy with work but its good. It is hard for both of us and especially for Lex....but sacrifices must be made if you really want something. John really wants to move and give his family a bigger home and such. We really appreciate him working as hard as he does.
My dad seems to be doing well. He is doing the chemo and has had little side effects from it. The normal vomiting and upset tummy. Other than those things he seems to be handeling the treatments just fine. He called me today and we spoke for a few minutes. He told me his feeding tube has gotten infected but there was no need to see the doctor cause he fixed it himself. Oh dad....he will never change:) I have invited them for dinner several times but it never seems to work out. Makes me kinda sad but it is what it is and I can't change it. Both of my parents are planning on coming over during the day for christmas eve. I want them to watch the kids open gifts and Lex is at such a fun age I thought it would be a nice break for them both. There is nothing better than watching kids get excited about christmas. Looks like he will have chemo every 3 weeks and he is due up next week. I love all of you for reading this and staying up to date with my dad. It will only get harder but I know he will have the love and support he needs.
