Wed July 28, 2010

Hello to all my faithful readers and supporters! I am glad to say that we are home, and enjoying a relaxing week! We had a long drive Sat, the last 2 hours it rained SO hard. We were home by 11:30pm! It was so great to be home. Blake has been really enjoying all his toys he hasnt seen in 2 months. Its like Christmas all over again. lol We went to the pool with Christian, my mom, Katie, and Mason yesterday. I was so excited to get some much needed sun. However, I didnt realize how much I was getting until it was too late. I am so burnt. Its painful, lol. I was supposed to take Blake to the pool again tomorrow, but we had to cancel. His little arms are a little red too! I applied spf 50 before we left the house, and again at the pool, somehow he still got red. We have been having such a great week. It feels so good to not have any apts scheduled-no hospital visits. We have an apt on Friday with Dr. Le Pichon, I want him to give us some advice, and look over the scans from MD Anderson. I am also very excited for Saturday. Christian is going to take Blake to a birthday party then to Nevada for a few days. Soo I have a date night with Phil Saturday!! Woo Hoo!! I think we are going to go have a 'nice' dinner and maybe go see a movie. Then I will have a few days to clean house, organize, get things sorted. There are a lot of things I am getting rid of-we just need the space! It will be good to have a few days to do whatever I want to do-kid free! Blake will have a BLAST with Christian too! She has some fun stuff planned for him. I am totally missing my family in Houston, but just checked the schedule on MD Anderson's website and Blake is due back on August 24. So looks like we will be back in just a few weeks. I think we will leave on Monday and come home Wed. Phil's birthday is the 25th. So he says if he goes he wants to eat dinner at Adobe cafe in Houston. lol I think that sounds great!
We will start back at Rehab Institute on August 10th. I am very excited to see all Blake's therapists. He has been missing them. He seems pretty excited to go back! I am looking forward to getting him back into the intensive therapy. He really needs it We just spent almost 4 months without therapy. I can totally see a difference. It will be really good to be back! There are so many people we want to see now that we are home, I guess it will all be a matter of time. Make-A-Wish is scheduled to come out on August 21. I dont know any details yet, but Joan or Nikki I am sure will call us soon with all the details. I can hardly wait! Our backyard has already been bulldozed, there is a huge area of dirt. They said they would come soon to lay the sod down. Its gotta be put down before they do the playset since it has to be watered and not walked on for a while. So I guess thats really all for now. I cant believe how good it feels to be home-minus the sun burn lol. I will talk to you all soon!
