Cancer frigging sucks… we have had more than our fair share here in my family. My Opa (my mom’s dad) had lung and stomach cancer, his sister – my great aunt – passed away after battling colon cancer for years… an aunt of mine had breast cancer… and now I find out that the prostate cancer that my uncle has is spreading fast (faster than his doctor his seen before) and it’s not responding to treatment.

This weeks Foto Friday is more of a series… I couldn’t pick just one… I hope you enjoy!

When it’s cold out and there’s nothing better to do, I let Noah rearrange my plastics cabinet.

So this weekend was a big weekend in our house. Noah now has a big boy bed to sleep in. How’s the transition been going? Well bedtime is going well… he climbs right into bed and sits there while we read. He then lays down when it’s time to say our prayers…

Noah reached a pretty big milestone today… he is spending the night sleeping in his new big boy bed and not in his crib!!

I couldn’t help but post these… this is Noah almost 1 year ago (Jan 30th, 09). He was drooling because he was cutting his first teeth and we were having fun playing in the loft with his toys. Funny that 1 year later things aren’t much different… he’s still cutting teeth and we will be upstairs playing in the loft soon!

I think he was, since he fell asleep while sitting up! (I just love that his book Things that GO! is right next to him… and no it wasn’t planted there just for the picture!)

# Another week has passed and YAY!!! I’m up to posting (and sitting upright) again! Thank you everyone for the get well wishes!!!
# Ray was the biggest sweetheart yesterday and stayed home to take care of Noah (who btw is doing much better, though he’s still a bit congested).

My dearest Heiney,

I’m am writing this to apologize – I have treated you terribly in the past few months. I will try my best to make it up to you if you let me. Let me just explain what happened…

So… as I mentioned earlier this week, Noah has been sick since the beginning of the week. At first we thought that he was cutting teeth, seeing that his two top I teeth and a molar were on the verge of popping through.

Since Noah hasn’t been feeling well this week, he’s spent a lot of time doing this…

Wow – this week I start classes again! Has it really been 5 weeks? I’m both excited and nervous about this semester… okay more nervous than anything else. I have a lot to get done before the baby gets here and I hope that I can do it.
