Stressful Weekend!

I've been meaning to get on here and post the lastest on Kate, but I haven't had a chance. On Monday we got a call from the dermatologist. She said that they got the results back on the tumor they removed from Kate's arm. She said that it was JXG. I was upset when I heard, but the doctor didn't seem very concerned. She sent an order to get blood work done (JXG can be the result of some frightening things) and told us to keep the eye appointment that we already have scheduled. So...on Friday we went to the doctor's office and they had to take blood from Kate's arm. I hate having to put Kate through all of this. It's no fun having to keep holding your child down while people cut stuff off of her arm and draw blood out. Michael couldn't get off of work so mom came with me. While they were trying to put the needle in I was down kissing Kate and talking to her. I looked over to see if it was over and they hadn't even gotten any blood out!!! They said her veins kept rolling and they couldn't get the needle in. Finally....the got the needle in and they got the blood. Since it was Friday they wouldn't get the blood work back until Monday (today). It was a very LONG weekend waiting for the blood test. For those of you who know me well know that I research EVERYTHING. The more I kept reading about JXG on the internet, the more I kept crying. Michael told me to quit reading stuff about it and that everything would be fine. So...this morning we get the call from the doctor. Everything came back normal and healthy! Praise the Lord! I feel that a huge weight has been lifted. We have the eye appointment at the end of the month, but I'm not to concerned about that.

I am enjoying my day off with my family and I am looking forward to a 4 day work week!

Here are some new pictures of the girls.
