much to report

First, Katt's progress:
With her last dose of radiation behind her, she and I thought that she was home-free. Unfortunately, what was unclear to us was the amount of side-effect that was yet to come. With pain in the areas radiated, sore skin, a sore throat, and fatigue, she also caught a head cold that turned into an upper respiratory infection...I mean really. What next, right? Well, take that sore throat you get and factor that by at least 10...and a lost voice is what you get.

Yep, Katt lost her voice for about 10 days. She started to get it back two days ago. AND is beginning to feel better! FINALLY! The corner is turned. Beginning to think about her business and working again, my wonderful wife is getting better.

During this journey, Charlie has had his first haircut, he is in the 'big boy' bed, he turned the knob and opened the door to the pantry to get his food he wanted, he strings sentences together now, and daycare bumped him into the toddler room...boy how things change FAST!!

Katt has surely been a part of the first two years of Charlie's life. But they weren't healthy years for her. She can't wait to be pain free for the first time in his life. He doesn't realize how lucky he his, yet. He will know that the amazing care she gave him was with the proverbial one leg and one arm tied behind her back. Now she will be 100%...watch out world!

Love to all,
Charlie's dada, and Katt's hubby.

Static cling...or was it the light socket?


After the snow, CB still likes the 'digger!'


What to do when it's cold and snow outside? WII!! (Thanks Susan).


Ready for camping!


Ready to take on the world!!
