It’s a contest for a fabulolus DYSON vacuum.  If you’ve been under a rock and have no clue what a Dyson is…go here:

I soooo want one of those…sigh.  Perhaps it would keep Trinity from eating things off the floor.  Hmmm. Go to this link and sign up.  You have just as good of a chance as anyone!

And on to other things…

My LAST Neulasta shot was today.  I was so glad to go in and just get it over with!  The nurses all hugged me and said, “you did it!” and I pranced out of that chemo room, singing “I win! I win!” LOL  Never again!  No more chemo.  I won!  My mom cried. 

Its been raining non-stop.  I surprised Gracie this afternoon after school with this cute set:

And this first outfit came in the mail today (from my current favorite kids boutique, Naartjie!)  I’m loving the revolving clothing fund.  I made $75 off my auctions on ebay and got to get the girls some neat things! Among them:

Um, excuse me, Gracie…who told you that you could grow up?  Where did my chunky baby Gracie go??

Okay, well, that’s all for now.  I’ll have Trinity pics soon but she’s not as eager to get in front of the camera like her sister. She’s got a snotty nose and teeth trying to pop through, so…sorry.  Hopefully I’ll get some good pics of her this weekend. 

Pray for me this weekend, ya’ll, my throat’s starting to tighten and I’m feeling the Neulasta shot taking over my body.  I feel it coming on…Yuck. 

Bye!

Okay, well partially.  I can’t tell you all the details yet! 

My family and I went out to eat tonight with a woman who is doing a story in a magazine about me and my mom being diagnosed with breast cancer.  The bad news is I can’t tell you which magazine until it prints!  So I’m sorry about that, but just know it’s a national magazine you have heard of and probably read on a regular basis.  How cool is that???  We’re getting our story told.  That’s what I wanted! Just to be able to help people, touch people with what I have to say.  Our story is incredible from beginning to now, and I just think, what an opportunity!  Talk about having more than I ever asked for or imagined!  This is big time…

So I’ll be tied up for the next couple days doing interviews.  Weird huh?  Like I’m important or something!  Haha!  No, I’m not important, I just talk alot. 

Holland came over today and the girls had a special princess tea party.  I put on my apron and played their waitress.  They are too adorable!  Of course I took pictures!

Cinderalla and Belle eat cookies and drink their tea.

The girls giggle a lot!  What angels! 

Gracie goes to an amazing preschool, one that has families much like ours.  Moms and dads who love eachother and their little munchkins and would do anything for them. (And for the price of what we pay for her to go to  preschool, that’s pretty obvious!  LOL)  But there are a couple families whose moms are either complete idiots or are just not very careful people with poor judgement. I can’t tell…

This morning it was raining so hard, and as I headed into the school with my keys and Trinity in one hand, and umbrella in my other hand and Gracie in front of me dancing and twirling her umbrella and getting completely SOAKED…I noticed a minivan drive up and let a little girl out.  Odd, I thought, for a four year old…but if she’s used to it, I guess that’s just how they do it.  She ran on ahead of us and out of sight.  We got to the elevator and the janitor stopped us and asked if we wouldn’t mind going up to the 3rd floor to retreive a lost child.  Poor baby had pushed the wrong floor on the elevator, gotten off, the door shut behind her and she was alone in the dark!  I went to get her and she was shaking and scared to death!  I calmed her down and brushed her hair out of her face.  Then I became very angry. I dropped both girls off and told the preschool director, who also became quite upset and told me she would take care of the situation.

How could you even risk that happening to your child?  Because it was raining???  

Boot to the head. 

Gracie’s best friend, Holland, and Savannah have a new baby sister!  Welcome baby Addison!  You have a precious family to go home to! 

Northview had it’s 3rd birthday today!  That church means more to me than words could say.  They took us in with open arms when we’d been broken…we were so sad about losing the ministry we’d built at First Church, then through my tough pregnancy with Trinity, then when Chris was laid off from AOL, and now through my cancer diagnosis and treatment.  I could not live without their support and prayers and friendship.  I can’t say enough about how much I love my friends from Northview.  The first Sunday we visited, there was a total attendance of 186.  Easter weekend we anticipate over 1,000.  Growth like that happens when people want to be there.  I wouldn’t want to be anywhere else.

Katie went back to New York, Matthew came home for the weekend and we ate lunch with him after church.  Lots of nice visiting!

Trinity’s crawling! I’ll have to get video up here later.

Spring Break is over THANK GOD!  Gracie will be going back to school tomorrow!  Woooohooooo!  She’s driving me NUTS! LOL

My LAST CHEMO is Thursday!  Then I will have done it!  I WIN!!!

Still can’t tell my big news yet, but you’ll know by Tuesday.  I have to make sure it’s going to happen before I tell you anything…but it should be confirmed tomorrow night.  Are you on the edge of your seat yet???
