My name is Cassie. Wife to Alex. Mom to Sam.

When Sam was 4 months old he was diagnosed with Stage 4 Neuroblastoma cancer. This blog became my outlet to share, vent, keep people informed, and document our lives throughout his treatment.

When Sam finished treatment this project sort of fell to the wayside. I'm making an effort revive this space and to start documenting those everyday moments again!

We love God.
We love each other.

2 weeks.

I keep meaning to write stuff and post pictures but then I get distracted by this kid needing to be held or fed or needing a diaper change or he totally needs me to stare at him and kiss him and tell him how cute he is.

He had his 2 week check-up yesterday and everything looked perfect. He weighs eight pounds. He still has his cord stump which is really gross... just thought you should know.

His favorite things right now are:

-Mommy's boobies
-The Moby wrap
-His bouncy seat
-Spitting up
-Pandora
-John Mayer - it's weird.
-Being propped up with the boppy for deep convos with mom and dad
-The vibrating feature on the pack 'n play bassinet... which EATS batteries.
-Ocean sounds

His not so favorite things:

-Diaper changes/sponge baths/being exposed
-Doctors visits... because they wake him up from his sweet car seat naps.
-Country music. Seriously.

This may have been that fastest and yet the slowest two weeks of my life. Know what I mean? No you don't... because I don't even know what I mean.

I hate battery powered things mostly b/c I had buying them. Rechargeable batteries are my bff.

John Mayer!? Good taste, Sam! Ocean sounds? A kid after my own heart!

He just loves music but John Mayer is the fail-safe. Good thing we have a wide selection on itunes.
