What's going on?

Well I have an update on Carey. After her biopsy, the results came back as chronic osteomyelitis. She had sub-acute osteomyelitis in her ankle earlier this year. We meet with the doctor on Friday so they can check her jaw and hopefully learn more about how they are going to tackle this. There is going to be a team of doctors from different specialities working on her case.

The kids had a great time trick or treating. Emma was a zombie bride, Carey was a nerdy boy and Keegs was Superman. He lasted almost the entire 2 hours. Carey also dressed up at Physical Therapy. All the PTs dress up and of course they thought it was funny she dressed up as well.

Emma and Andy went to Baltimore for the weekend for her birthday trip. They went to ESPN Zone where Andy had "Happy 7th Birthday Emma" on the ticker going across the restaurant, they played all the games there, had cheesecake from The Cheesecake Factory for dessert, swam in the hotel pool, watched the Hannah Montana Movie (Andy loved it...he gives it 4 stars, LOL), went to the Aquarium and Port Discovery Museum (children's museum). They had great fun!

Keegan is now saying "no" all the time. He does say more things but that seems to be his favorite word these days. His new activity is scaring the cat...he runs up to her and screams "Lila" and laughs when she runs away. At gymnastics he's learned how to do a log roll down the mat and he can walk across the balance beam. He still does not listen and has his own agenda but that's expected from a boy at 20 months. I'm waiting for the day he'll wait his turn and not run around all over the place and stay where he's supposed to....I'll be waiting a very long time.

I want to include a link to a very special family. Baby Ally is the niece of Keegan's godparents Steve and Amy. She has a rare disease called HLH and has been battling it most of her short life. Please keep Ally and her family in your prayers. This is such a difficult time for them and they've been in the hospital for 5 months straight, not including other hospital stays prior to her bone marrow transplant. They have been through so much and deserve to have a healthy Ally! Please pray for them. http://www.caringbridge.org/visit/allyjark

I hope everyone has a nice Thanksgiving and don't eat too much turkey. :)
