Happy New Year! I know I'm due for a "year in review" post but I have a huge TO DO list right now at work and at home and I can't prioritize this. It requires thought! This pic of Lila cracked me up - apparently she dressed herself (which sometimes I'm challenged to do) and I think she looks great.

Olive's blood results last Monday (no treatment scheduled) were good! Her anemia was gone which means the drug worked. She's scheduled for treatment today after checking her blood again. We think that one of these drugs is making her constipated - she's not pooping regularly - and so in addition to her regular stool softener she's getting pumpkin, which she loves. Weirdo. Think positive thoughts today for her!

Christmas was good. Quiet with just Jesse's parents here. On xmas eve we went to the firefighter/neighbor's house for appetizers which was fun. Another neighbor is severely gluten-intolerant so they baked AWESOME g-free sugar cookies. Then Dan, Lyn and Hannah were here for a few days which was fun because Hannah got to ice skate and sled (though I missed it because I was working - saving days for maternity leave!) and Lyn and I were prego "twins." Luna was pretty darn good with little Hannah, thank goodness! Hannah says that Luna is "snuffy" and "squishy" and something else that I can't think of right now.

After all the house guests flew away, Jesse and I got six inches of beautiful snow (finally!) and had several days of rest prior to this first Monday morning of 2011.
