Sept. 15, 2008 -- Chemo # 26

Hunter started soccer with the parks and recreation on Saturday, September 13.
Our future soccer star.
Terry and Sawyer hanging out at the soccer fields. It was such a hot day.
Sawyer working on his "angel" craft. He had so much fun--notice the large sticker on his shirt.
Sawyer showing off his long train at the clinic. He threw such a fit each time the train would come apart on the track corners.

Snack time!

Mom forgot my toy bag so we had to get creative. Monster finger puppets--Mom sure was a quick thinker and made me some fun paper toys.
I was excited to have chemo in the room with the individual TVs.
Hanging out getting chemo #26.

After Sawyer's treatment, he curled up on his side and wanted to stay and watch cartoons.
On our way home we quickly stopped by the hospital to see Danielle. Sawyer insisted on having his picture taken before we left the hospital.

Hunter's first day of preschool--Monday, Sept. 8th. He was so excited to go. In fact today (his 2nd day of preschool) he was up at the crack of dawn--dressed and with his backpack on. Sawyer's the little boy playing in the background.

Sawyer's first angel mail. He was so excited to get some mail! (I don't know why he does these silly grins.) Wow, a package from another angel! Sawyer (& his siblings) were thrilled to open up this box.
Sawyer received a Power Ranger DVD. He was ecstatic! When we put the DVD in, he immediately grabbed his Power Ranger mask and started making some Power Ranger moves.
Sawyer (& Hunter) got into the packing peanuts while Mom was helping Bridger practice the piano. Mom could hear giggling in the next room-she had no idea why the boys were having so much fun until she went to investigate.

Consult with Dr. Arceci -- John Hopkins--Maryland--Sept. 4, 2008

Sawyer was such a big boy during our visit today. He usully sits on my lap while his vitals are being taken but today he climbed up into the chair and sat all by himself.
Such a cutie and a happy boy.
Sawyer was excited to visit the playroom. In fact, when the nurse told him he was free to go play, he RAN to the playroom!
Daddy's enjoying watching "Tom & Jerry" while Sawyer drives around the room.
We did a lot of waiting today...

...and more waiting...
...and more waiting...
Sawyer's hugging a comfort doll--our church women's group will be making several of these during an upcoming service project. Then they will be donated to Sawyer's clinic.
Playing video games with Dad in the teen room.
Where's Sawyer?

Consult with Dr. Arceci -- Sept. 4, 2008 Continued

There he is! Sawyer had so much fun hiding in these cupboards.
Being examined by Dr. Williams. I wasn't quick enough to get a picture of Dr. Williams looking in Sawyer's nose. She wasn't planning on doing that but after examining Sawyer's ears (looking for Spiderman) Sawyer asked her to look in his nose. He said Spiderman was hiding in there.


Silly boy! Looks like Sawyer's choking himself. Terry was trying to get him to pose like they would at a photo studio.

Posing on the firetruck.
Drawing pictures with Dad. Sawyer showing off his Power Ranger skills to Dr. Arceci.
A tired boy...on our way home Sawyer zonked out right in the middle of eating his chicken nuggets.
