Draggy and Pumpkins!!!!


Well, after the last treatment, Riley did okay, he wasn't deathly ill, but he definitely took longer to recover energy wise then before. Finally on Wed night he got off the couch and wanted to jump with Hunter. It only lasted a few minutes before he was to tired and had to come in. He Threw up until Friday but had a "break" of it on Thursday! By the weekend and the next Monday, he was running around and wrestling Hunter as normal though! What an amazing kid!!!


I decided Riley and I need to start separating a little bit!! We have been partners in crime for what seems like an eternity and it's time to start acting a little bit more normal!! We can't be attached at the hips for the rest of our lives!!! So I told him he needs to start sleeping by himself at night....... well, the psychologist at Primary's told us that and more, but my heart can't take full separation and neither can Riley's..... not yet!!
Baby steps!! Baby steps!!

So, about 3 weeks ago I took Riley to Costco (for the first time!!) because his counts were high enough! and he saw this Dragon stuffed animal that he wanted soooooo bad..... I told him he can't just have it, he has to earn it. So he said he would sleep by himself with "Draggy" if we could get him. (yes, this is how he earns things sometimes!!!) haha!
So I agreed..... and......
I have slept in my bed for almost 3 weeks now! And Draggy has a new bed filled with pillows and forts and lots and lots of love!! He even gets Lysol baths!! He is a part of our family and even gets buckled up in the car when we go somewhere!!
What is that you ask???........

Could that be HAIR??????

Oh yes!! And he has to spike it up at least 4 times a day!!! He loves it and has to show everyone that he has hair now!! mmmmmmm he is yummy with out without hair!!!

We also made it to the pumpkin patch with Smith cousins!!
 Heather, Ridge, Brinley, Hallie, Riley, Jackson, Hunter and Jensen!!!

 And these were the "perfect" pumpkins!!!
So..... let's carve them up!!!



They had a great time! We got done pretty late, so the final results will have to wait!!! (As Riley says, that rhymes!!) (He goes around the house rhyming all day!!)
