3 down...4 to go!

FINALLY got past the round 5 hump. Seemed like we've been stuck on #5 FOREVER.

Nothing eventful to report. Infusion went well and we were in and out of the center in under 3 hours. No doctor's appointment today, so went pretty quickly. HUGE WIN. But now I'm pumped up with steroids and can't stop capitalizing EVERYTHING. haha.

Aunt Stinky took Austin out this evening and helped get him off to bed so I could rest. Would definitely have been a challenging day without her here. I feel okay, just really worn out and having some joint/bone pain that's not the most awesome thing in the world.

One thing that is the most awesome thing in the world is Chanel's bestie from growing up, Paige (she's equivalent in Chanel's life as my bestie April is in mine), welcomed the sweetest baby girl into the world last week and I got my hands on her for a few minutes while we were in Houston. We brought her a bunch of Austin's old baby stuff to add to the huge amount of junk you collect when you have a baby and she just sent me a pic of Ellery lounging in Austin's little lamb chair. She is the most gorgeous little girl in the world. I was totally holding back tears of joy the whole time I was watching Paige as a mommy. Okay, I'm lying. I totally cried right next to her on her bed while I was staring at her holding the baby. haha. I told her it was too weird because since she grew up in my house as a second little sister I have her stuck at a late middle school/early high school age, not a wife/mommy age. But she's going to be a great one. I'm so proud of her!
Austin on the left, Ellery right...look at all that hair!!

I would also like to share with you the most awesome quote from a new mom EVER. Paige with 10 day old Ellery in her arms, "My body's like really craving an 8 hour sleep!" haha. I promised her that she would get that eventually...I didn't tell her how long it would take, but that's not really something mom's with 10 day olds need to hear the truth about. haha. Those hormones can make a mama slap a visitor for sharing details like that...I just stuck as much as possible to staring and cooing.

Headed to cozy up in my bed and watch those crazy Housewives of Beverly Hills on Bravo rock their wigs and crazy lady ways of their own. We are planning on an ice day here in Austin tomorrow...preschool announced a late start already! Eek! Please no ice day, please no ice day...it just really doesn't sound as much fun as they used to sound when I was a student or even a teacher :)

LOVE
Jenn
