Hip hip hooray, it is May!!

Papi and Lila enjoying the view of the trees!

I remember thinking back in Febraury when I started my 1st round of chemo. that May was far away. Well, here we are into the 1 st week of May. I had my 5th round of Chemo last week and have had very mild side effects. I am counting down to May 19th which will be the final round of chemo. Of course I will still need to continue with my other therapy (herceptin) every 3 weeks..but has no major effects so I can handle that! In 3 weeks I will also meet with my surgeon and probably have some tests done to determine what kind of surgery to have done---I will keep everyone posted on this.

So, meanwhile we continue to cherish life and count our blessings. I am so thankful I have been feeling well all things considered. Our little Lila keeps us on our toes. Her latest move is showing us how she climbed out of her crib during naptime! Yep, she is a big girl....I was so surprised when she met me at the staircase instead of her crib! "I did it all by myself!" she said. I wasn't sure how to respond except not to get to histerical. So, our crib days are officially over. Papi converted her crib to her big girl toddler bed yesterday. Lila is very proud of it and seems to be handling the change okay. She did roll off last night, and when we tried putting her back on the bed she wanted to be on the floor. This morning she came down the stairs and greeted us with "good morning" Mami, Papi....what can I say....our baby Lila is growing up!!
