We had a pretty good week this last week. Brooklyn did great with her chemo again Tuesday and we got to go to Braden's game that night. We have loved the warmer weather this week and the kids have loved playing outside every day. Wednesday, the kids had a blast playing in the hose in the back yard. It is always a process to get Brooklyn's Broviak covered up to prevent it from getting wet, but the payoff is always worth it. They had so much fun! Friday, Mike and I got to golf with my parents, which was great. It was nice to just be able to relax and enjoy the day together. One negative from this week is that Brooklyn has been throwing up occasionally. She took her last steroid Tuesday morning, and Wednesday morning the first thing she did when she got up was say, "I don't have to take any medicine today!" It was so sweet and also kind of sad. I wonder how much she understands of this whole process and how much she will remember after it is over. Since she was so excited to not have to take any medicine, we weren't giving her the anti-nausea medicine either, but she seems to feel sick in the mornings. She threw up yesterday morning at Braden's baseball game and this morning as well. I gave her the medicine today and it seemed to help, so we will just have to give it to her for the next week to prevent her from feeling so yucky. Other than that though, she has been doing awesome. We have been much more serious with potty training, and she has done amazingly well. This Tuesday, she has chemo and then starts steroids again, so that my mess up her system a little. She has been throwing some good fits, but I'm just blaming it on the steroids. It's gotta be that, right? :) I am still continually amazed at how well she handles everything and what a positive little spirit she has.
