Tomorrow the 11th is exactly three months post transplant! Thank you Lord for these wonderful months that we have had at home with our princesses. Her doctor appointment today was pretty uneventful. They just check to make sure that everything is moving okay, check her blood pressure, etc. Everything looked okay to them. They checked and her blood counts are really down right now. They don't have a good reason for it, but again, they aren't too worried about it. She is taking Accutane (two pills twice a day) now with 2 weeks on and 2 weeks off. She just started that again this Monday, so my thought is that maybe the Accutane brings her counts down...then when she is off of it for awhile, the counts go back up. I guess we'll just have to see how it goes this next cycle. Even if that were the case, they wouldn't change anything because the Accutane is really important. We will continue to have her counts checked once a week, but we won't have to go back down for a check-up unless something else comes up. The next time we go down (next month) she will have scans done again. Besides her counts being down, she is absolutely doing great! You sure can't tell from the outside that her counts are down. I am glad that we won't have to go back down for awhile. It took me FOREVER to get home today. I am sick of the traffic.
So, what have we been up too? I have been making lots of cards for samples for my rubber stamping demonstration business. It is a great escape for me. Kelby has been enjoying the outside. I get a good coating of sunscreen on her and let her go out in the back yard. She is such a good little girl. She hasn't been naughty the last few days. We play together too. She likes to kiss on Tegan all the time. We are all very happy. Mike is working normal hours now, so life is quite normal. My biggest challenge now-a-days is getting my grocery shopping done with two kids!
Kelby received a wonderful home-made quilt from the Bakker Family...and here she is all wrapped up and cozy in it. She really likes the quilt! Thanks so much you guys. (I love it too, and might have to borrow it sometimes :)


The first picture is a funny angle, but she is so cute anyways. She is sporting a cute dress that Gramma GiGi sent to her!
