Bubbles, Feeties & Round 2

A birth mark showed up on her right foot about a month after she was born. I think it's cute, but she may hate it when she's older.


Brecken has recently discovered her feet and her bubble maker which produces lots of slobber, yum! She gets so many comments on her big, beautiful blue eyes and we are hopeful they will stay, but I'm not counting on it!

Levi also just finished up with round 2 of chemo this morning. He calls chemo winner this round too and has predicted a KO after 12 rounds. Poor guy. But he has taken it all in good stride. He felt about the same as last time, but the "cold" side effects came on stronger and quicker this round. They finally wore off about day 10 (which gave him about 3 days of freedom) and he enjoyed a couple of very large bowls of peppermint ice cream. I'm afraid the more treatments he has, the longer it will take to wear off, so I'm fearful he won't get any days of freedom by the end, but we'll see. The room temperature drinks this time were even too cold, if room temperature isn't bad enough! So he feels like he's having a hard time quenching his thirst. I had to run an errand this morning and came back with surprise Caramel Apple Spice from Starbucks, which he loves, so hopefully that helped a little! Two down, ten to go...thanks for everyone's continued support!

mag has a birthmark on the back of her leg - just above her sock line.It is pretty big and VERY dark. My grandfather had an identical mark. She had a time of not liking it too much, but she's ok with it now. She also has vitaligo (white spots) on her ankles and knees and she LOVES them! One is shaped like south america - it is her favorite!
