The last dose of chemotherapy

I had drafted a lengthy Bree-esque post to commemorate tonight's achievement.... But then, Jon posted these pictures on Facebook with his own thoughts on this milestone; and really, I couldn't have said it better. Perhaps one of these days I'll post my own, but for now, I'm happy to leave this short and sweet.

So, here you go. In my amazing partner's own words. ❤️
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

It has been a long road, and while we are not at journey's end, today we celebrate an exciting and emotional milestone; C's last dose of chemotherapy. Thank you to all the friends and family who have been on this journey with us. We love you all and appreciate the support over these last 2.5 years. We are blessed to have such a great community of people surrounding us in our lives. And while we have another 5 years of hospital follow ups and monitoring, we look forward to all the tears from here on out being those of joy. Again, from the deepest depths of our hearts, thank you and love to all who have shared this emotional roller coaster with us.

We. Are. Done!

Teeth Cleaning

Logan got his teeth cleaned on Monday. Since then, Callum has been looking forward to his own appointment! He has been looking forward to raiding the toy box for 2 days now. ;-)

He is also quite the independent kid. Yelling at me to stay in the waiting room because he wanted to get his teeth cleaned on his own (I suspect he wanted to be like his big brother). I was only allowed to come in briefly while the dentist examined his teeth, and then he told me to leave again. ;-)

3 days left

I turned my tracking sheets over, to start a new week today, and look what we have to look forward to! The very last week, 3 days left, of Callum's chemotherapy program.

Crazy!!

Happy Birthday Daddy!

Yesterday was Jon's birthday - we spent most of it running around between soccer games. But then got together with some great friends for a yummy dinner to celebrate.

Tonight we had dinner with my family to celebrate - since yesterday was also my brother Kai's birthday too!!

Happy birthday to Daddy and Uncle Kai! ❤️❤️

Brunching with my cutie pie

We got a few funny looks walking into this upscale, sorta preppy brunch spot. Logan was still sweaty and in his jersey and I'm in my yoga pants 😱, but I don't really give a shit.

We're celebrating a hard earned win this morning! πŸ’ͺπŸΌπŸ‘ŠπŸΌ⚽️πŸ™ŒπŸΌ Woohoo!!

Let the crafting begin!

I just bought a bunch of stuff today to begin putting together the boys' Halloween costumes this year (the materials pictured here will be part of Logan's - which he has "approved"). πŸ˜‰πŸ‘πŸΌ

I'd be lying if I said I wasn't a little excited about working on this one. πŸŽƒπŸ‘»πŸ˜±
