I just went through almost all of the posts before this one and lots of the comments..wow, how it touches my heart how many people care and are supporting me and Barre. I really do read all the comments you all post. I am going to try to do better at posting.
Well, I am sick with an upper respiratory infection, feelin pretty crappy. But I'm on an antibiotic so I should start feelin better within a day or two. Just hope lil Barre doesnt get it! He is so precious! Yesterday he turned 5 months old!! He's about 14 1/2 lbs or maybe even 15. I do that stand on the scale with and then without him way of getting his weight LOL..it's actually pretty accurate within a few ounces. When I saw his pics from way earlier posts, I am wowed how much he's grown and changed! He is scooting around the floor in a circle and making all kind of new baby babbles. It's so funny, when he's eating his cereal sometimes he makes this noise like "mmm, mmm, mmm"..so cute! He did that alot tonight! Still working with him on sitting up..he's doin a pretty good job, just not on his own yet. I cant wait for us to get to go visit family in October! He will love it I'm sure! Sometimes I'm excited for the new stuff he's doing but at other times it's like, slow down dont grow up too fast! LOL..I love him so very much! He already has some nicknames he may not be too fond of later but we love them..Barre-man, Barre-cakes, Barre, Barrett Parrott, B, Barrett Jay said real fast :) Well I'm gonna go get some rest. Hope you all are in good health and doing well! Oh and Wendi, I am so excited you found me on here, how ironic..I would love to have your email address or something so I can chat with you. I am so blessed for the support me and Barrett get from all you guys. Lots of love!

UT fan in training

I know I havent posted in a while. I've been enjoying Barrett and kinda busy. I'm trying to enjoy everything while I have a break. Sometimes it's hard to when I get down. But right now I am not doing any treatment. The last radiation treatment was over a week ago, and now I'm just waiting on the nurse to call me to let me know when my MRI of my head will be this week. And then in about 3 weeks I will have a CT scan of my body to see if the cancer is gone or if it has spread.
Barrett is getting big! weighs about 14 1/2 lbs! He is almost rolling over and learning to sit up. We had a good weekend this past weekend with his G-Pa, Aunts Crystal and Alyssa and cousins Collin and Carson. Barrett really enjoyed the happiness and fun they brought! And so did I! Well just wanted to give a little update. Thanks for the continued prayers and love and support! Love yall!
