Smiles!

Many of you have said that I could never post enough smiley pictures of Case, so here's one that had me laughing out loud for about 5 minutes! The last two days have been the happiest for Case for, honestly, the last two months. I attribute it to getting great naps (on a routine!), eating a lot more (nursing and eating solids!), probably a release of pressure from the tumor, and just being happy to be alive. It has been pure joy for Xavier and I! Perma-smiles all the way around. Too bad we have to start chemo next week and get all yucky again.



This picture was from yesterday. We were on our way home from clinic and I gave him a cookie to eat (homemade oatmeal cookie...nothing really unhealthy). He has been all about snacking lately and loves to just suck on food. So when we get home I open the door to find the above. He was so happy...just giggling with chocolate and crumbs all over him!
