Inside day... Day 423 10JAN10

We all chose to pretty much stay inside today as the temperature never got past 39.

We had a wonderful day today because Miss Allie and Jamie came over to visit. Allie gets spoiled rotten by her uncles and her grand parents and she loves it. We like doing it:) She is so close to rolling over for us in fact, she has already done it for her mom at home. We were hoping for a command performance today and she came amazingly close several times. We had a great time and hope she comes to visit again soon. Renee made cookies and they smelled and tasted great!
Joshua is doing pretty good. His taste buds are out of whack again and it was hard to find things that he could eat today. His tastes change almost daily it seems and he has a hard time trying to figure out what he can actually get to taste right. One of the side effects of chemo unfortunately. He did manage to find a few nourishing things although I would love to see him pack on a few more pounds.

Tomorrow is clinic and pentamidine with school on the afternoon. We are not expecting it to warm up much until towards the end of the week. Hope everyone is staying warm.

You know when I was going thru chemo, the only thing that always tasted the same was those cracker and peanut butter sandwiches. I could always count on the taste being the same every time. I am sorry that his taste changes and it is no fun finding out what has the right taste, but, what an adventure!LOL

Hey Snuggle Monkey,

Fun with Allie! How marvelous. You two looked like you were having a great conversation.

Hope the clinic visit is okay and your counts are holding steady.

Sorry about the taste buds - just when you need to pack on a little bit of weight, nothing tastes right. What a bummer. Maybe you need one of Pa's Michigan sandwiches.

Keep kickin butt Might Warrior.

Tons of Love, Hugs and Kisses,

Nonna

We had tons of fun!! Allie is for months old! =( She is just growing up way to fast..
Its sucks that she has to be in a good mood in order to put her on her belly for her to roll over and she only like being on her belly for so long. =) She loves putting on that big sweet smile and getting spoiled rotten. =) We love coming over and hanging out for the day

XOXO LOVE JAMIE ALLIE BELLA AND CHRISTIAN
