And so it begins...........

So....my family are now living in California! Can you believe it? I can't! They will be living there until about July and then my sister should be done and they'll be on their way back to Vegas.They got an apartment in Anaheim Hills? Not sure if I am right about that but somewhere around there. What a roller coaster ride this has been for my family and I have not even been there to cheer her on. It has been hard but I will be flying there May 5th and staying until May 19th. Today she had an outpatient surgery done to put a port in her upper chest so that she can receive her chemo through that. I haven't heard yet on how she did with that this morning but I am sure fine. Her first chemo treatment is on Monday and she'll be at the hospital 8 hours a day for her first week then after that a few hours a day. She'll start to loose her hair in the 3rd week. She just cut 10 inches off before she left Vegas and donated it to Locks of Love. What a sweetheart! She has the "Victoria Beckham" hairdo! Short a-line! It was a shock a first but she actually really likes it. I will keep you all informed the more I know! Thanks for the prayers and sweet phone calls!
As for me and my fam,we are just moving right along with life. I have been busy with photo shoots and our house is going up so fast!Young Womens is a total blast and I just LOVE the girls! Looks like Girls Camp for me in July!Yahoo! The weather is so nice and I am getting ready for Ty's 1st birthday(May 4th) if you can believe that one! And did I mention..........HE IS A WALKER! I will say that again...I HAVE A WALKER! It is so much fun watching him go! He is so beautiful and has THE most beautiful eyes ever on a little boy! Paige has fun with him walking around but doesn't like that now he can get to more of her toys! Let the fighting begin,right? I sure do love them very much! Paige, I swear, is talking so dang good! She just talks and talks and talks!
The older my kids get the harder it is to be a mom. But then again,it gets easier too! I am starting to look more forward to those date nights! They don't come fast enough at times. Thankfully, my husband puts up with me and makes it all better! And what would I do without my sweet best girlfriends,they are the best and also make everything better too!I am hanging in there enjoying my kids! Hope you all are great and I hope to see some of you while I am in Cali! Hey Kissy...ready for a Cali trip?

Oh my gosh, YES! We actually might be there that time!!! We are supposed to go for Lydia's birthday, but we are waiting until after Bree has her baby. I think my mom wanted to go the second week of May. Eee! I hope we can work something out.
I have been wanting to call you. I need to run a few errands today, and then I will give you a ring. Tell Tara to take pictures. Even though she will feel and (think)she looks terrible, all three of my friends are glad they documented it. They are all proud of their port scar too! I swear everytime I see someone with that scar on their chest my eyes just well up with tears. I can't help it.
Tell Tara to try some scarves Tupac style! Hahaha! She is so cute. I hope she knows how much we think about her!

Wow, it is so much to take in what tara is going through just through reading your blog, I can't imagine what its like in reality, I think about her all the time! She's going to beat this!!! How cute to have a Posh Spice hair cut, way to make the best of the situation, and so incredible of her to be so thoughtful.
A walker!?!?!? It seems like you just posted he was crawling! What a quick learner!!! And 1st birthdya- how exciting, I found you just after you had him, time goes so fast. Glad you're enjoying them so much. You're a fabulous mama!!!
Your house is so exciting! I loved when we were waiting for our new home, that was just the best. ENJOY!

Hey, I have an idea for photodocumenting the whole process. Also, Mike wants to give you the software for uploading and editing your site when you come, so let's do like we planned, and you guys can come out for a few days. Call me.

Tiffany said...

Alli! Sweet! I'll call you and thanks!

Your sister is so amazing thinking of others when she is going through so much! I think about you guys a lot and I know that she will be through all of this before you know it!
Woo hoo Ty! Now the fun really begins for you!!

I just caught up on all that your sister is going through. She sounds like such a strong and amazing person and so lucky to have such a loving sister like you supporting her through all of this! I'm rooting for her!
