Working on Her Tan

-
I hope you're all as entertained by these pictures as I am. The sass in this girl is just too much. Camden had a baseball game Saturday afternoon, and it was a lovely (although hot) day. The game was good - they actually quit early because Camden's team was winning by so much.

She can't get sunglasses to stay on her face at all so she constantly scrunches her face up in a futile effort to keep them in place.

And, yes, I'd say she's got a head start on her tan. :)

I'm hoping to come back later with my Thousand Gifts post as well as a whole lot of real life ramblings that will most likely not be the most inspiring thing you've read all day.

(And I've upped the size of my blog pics. Let me know if they're too big for your screen.)

She is a hoot!!! Matthew has the same problem with sunglasses. He wears them upside down so they will stay up! I think it is his Asian facial structure--I've heard that Oakley has a line of sunglasses for Asian faces, and they don't have that problem. But he'll have to stick to the upside down $5 pair from CVS for now!

Rory, I just love you. Although I fear for your parents during your teenage years. I have a feeling you'll be keeping everyone on their toes :)
I love the larger photos! The bigger the better!
We have problems with sunglasses in this family too - Ingrid's hearing aides get in the way of the arms going over her ears, and Olive is missing the top half of her right ear, so there's nowhere for the arm to rest. But they power through regardless!

The Scoop

Our meeting with Dr. W today was fine. Not encouraging, but fine. I don't know why I expected better news, but I think it's hard not to hope that the bad news you hear is somehow wrong; that they've somehow made a mistake. Basically, the cancer is still the same as prior to chemo. Possibly a little larger, but he said it was hard to tell. He was glad that it had not returned to my bowel or colon (because that was a large part of my initial surgery), and my chest and lungs are still clear (apparently, this is the next place the cancer would go). It does not change my stage of cancer (still 3c), and remission is still a possibility, but he said that it would be very tough to get there.  There are several more drugs that we can try, which is good, but unfortunately they each have a success rate of only 25%. It's a little too early to be considering clinical trials because hospitals who hold the trials like for the patients to have tried the more main-stream drugs firs

1. Thanks to Andrea for driving me to chemo today. I'm always a little anxious on the way in and the very few times I've had to drive myself, it's been a little lonely coming home. But not today. 2. A fellow chemo patient today thought I was in my 20's. Score.  ("score" would be a term I'm borrowing from Becky ) 3. I did not wear a scarf today to chemo, and all the nurses and doctors did a double take since they didn't recognize me. So wierd. I recognize me with hair, bald, and with a little puppy fluff. 4. Dr. W. is adding Avastin , a new drug which will help prevent cancer cells from growing, to my current Gemzar routine. Good news is that it won't make me feel any worse. Bad news is that in a small percentage of patients it causes severe side effects involving blood clots, kidney failure, ulcers, and holes in your bowel. Good times. 5. I've been instructed to head directly to my primary care doctor for blood pressure medic

Scenes from the Soccer Field

So I may not have apologized yesterday about the number of pictures, but I am definitely going to today. Because  coughcough thirty coughcough just might be excessive. And probably my family will be the only ones who look at all of them. But I don't care. :) By the way, we completely lost and did not even score a goal yet again. Rory tried really, really hard. This team was head and shoulders bigger than we are, way more coordinated than 4 year olds should be and their coach kept their A team in the entire game. Even after scoring some 15 goals. Oh, well. Rory still enjoyed herself. Which way is the goal again? Notice her position in this picture. Notice how she passed the girl next to her? No, I am not competitive at all. Not sure where the other team is. Oh, wait. There they are. See how much bigger they are? You'll notice she almost always runs with her mouth open. Either that or her tongue hang
