- Stefan and I went to Vegas. Without the kids. Just the two of us, shopping, sun, a show, and a bit of gambling. We had such a great time, and didn't even worry about the kids (we worried about my parents getting tuckered out watching said kids - but they managed just fine - thanks Mom and Gerald!!)
- Nathan is addicted to the wiggles.
- Any free time I have lately has been used playing with my kids, and riding my bike - hence the lack of blog posts.
- Stefan's work is going well, he is pretty much at full hours, and while tired, he is managing. He will be starting at a new school come July. Not sure if that means he will be still on long term disability, or partially on it, only time will tell.
- We were on TV! CTV (and
Jason Pires, who is fantastic) did a segment on my little family and my
participation in the Ride to Conquer Cancer. It was fun to film, and
they did a great job!
link to CTV Clip - Charlotte is back in the bubble, and has been now for 2 weeks as her counts are low. We haven't noticed too much though since we have someone come to the house to watch the kids. You would not be able to tell, as she remains her happy energetic self. She is off for bloodwork again tomorrow to see if we can resume her chemo.
- Charlotte turned 4
with a princess birthday party! She had a great time with her 3
cousins, and a few of her favorite people (Tootoo, Grandpa, Alex, and
her Aunties and Uncles). She dolled herself up with her new princess
gear and gave us some lovely poses and "I'm sooooo beautiful". I don't
think I have ever seen her as happy as at her party!
- We did our 3rd Brain Tumour Foundation Spring Sprint. It was actually my first time running it as I was pregnant the first year, and home with Charlotte the second year. Thanks to all on our team for coming out! Next weekend we will be participating in the Child Run!
- We had a great date night at a fundraiser for the Gaby Davis Foundation! A trolley ride to Gastown and Stanley Park with fabulous dinner and drinks!
- We went to Stefan's absolutely favorite event of the year - the Eat Vancouver show. We went to the show just after Stefan, Rebecca and Abbey met up with/watched a rugby game of the SFU Old Boys in Kitsilano
- We are making plans for the summer, which include: Camp Goodtimes, Stefan taking an 8 day kayaking trip with Survive and Thrive Expeditions, a couple camping trips, and a trip to the Okanagan!
Whew - I'm tuckered out just reading this list! We are happy, tired and thankful here in the Lageston house! Take care all!
