Surgery today

On the ball...
My mom is having surgery this morning. The consult went well with the Oncology GYN specialist. She was ready to get moving on the cancer and the doctor was as well. They admitted her yesterday and she's having a radical hysterectomy this morning. No word yet on a prognosis, her chances of beating it or a treatment regiment for chemo. The doc says he'll have a better idea about those once he sees whats in there. We are praying fervently!!

Gym boy...
Andrew starts toddler gym again today. It runs fall through spring. A church in the neighboring town has the program as an outreach. Its totally free! They have TONS of donated toys and climb-on things for the kiddos to play on for about 45m, then they have circle time and a snack. We just love it! I can't wait to get there at 9:30 today. 3 of our playgroup friends are also signed up. It will be a blast! Afterward, we're headed to the mall for some excersize and playtime. And yummy lunch!

Yesterday...
We had a great time with our friends yesterday. The natural foods place is very cool. But I'm not commited to that kind of eating since its so darned expensive. But it will be a super source of whole grain products whenever we can get ourselves back into the low carb groove. Of course that means Don must stop bringing home boxes of cheese curls and Little Debbies. Rats. LOL After shopping the park was FABULOUS! We had it to ourselves for the whole time pretty much. The babies were wonderful and the kids... well, there kids. Andrew experienced his first face and mouth full of sand yesterday, courtesy of M. He totally deserved it because he was throwing sand. Guys.
