Back to the real world...

This week has been an adjustment, we have missed the lake, our RV, and all of the family we spent the last month with. Bennett has been reminded of the real world by sleeping in his own room by himself, bed time when it is still light outside, and finally a trip to Seattle Childrens today for a routine follow-up. As many people know, Bennett is routinely checked every 3 months (until he is 10 yrs old) for certain types of childhood abdominal cancers that are frequent with little kids that are born with similar stuff as Bennett was. He had great test results today and he was kinda adorable during the appointment...

Bennett can now climb up on chairs at the clinic and loves tongue depressers too...
He usually hates these appointments and it is usually a very unpleasant day. But today was a bit different, he did great during the screening due to a very yummy blow-pop, and when we left the appointment we spent a couple hours at our friends Kate & Harley's.
Kate has been a friend of mine since college and she has a beautiful daughter named Harley... it was a great afternoon with sunshine, a water table for the kids and a yummy beer and pizza for the mamas. :)

This is them a couple weeks ago... friends already, such good sharers :)
This week was also exciting because Bennett's cousin Evie was spending time at Grandma's, We were able to go down to Chehalis and have breakfast with his cousin one day...
