32

My birthday was this past Monday. Birthday's are not a huge deal in my mind (especially at this age) but it was a little sweeter this year with everything that has happened this past month and a half. I am grateful that I am still around :) Things have been busy around the house since my in-laws left but I savor all (okay most) of the moments with my boys.  

We were able to sneak away last weekend and went to the lake with friends. The guys couldn't get the ski boat to work (not that I was going to ski) so here is next best option! 



I met with my oncologist on Thursday and he confirmed what the doctor we saw at UNC said and I am not going to do chemo. He also said that right now our insurance is not covering the genetics test so that is on hold. I go back for blood work in 3 months and will probably have a colonoscopy in about 6 months. I am still so overwhelmed by support. I have one more week of meals from local friends and this week I received cards with gift cards to restaurants from friends who live far away and wanted to help. Thank you!! 

Gavin has been 3 months for a while now and I keep hoping I will get a post up about him. He is growing so fast!
