He's only 1 and he's doing what?

that's right....Gav has his first tantrum yesterday. He actually fell onto the floor....turned onto his belly and pounded the earth with his fists! Jeff and Jacob just sat and laughed and laughed....poor guy. Seriously though, what the heck! He's one...not 3! Oh man...we are in for it! Kind of like when Jacob was at little Gym last week and came running out bottom half naked from the bathroom asking for help with underpants. Oh lord...let the embarrassment begin!
PS: Gavin is walking all over the place now. His favorite thing to do? test mommy and daddy by going up the stairs when he knows he's not supposed to and giving us that devilish grin as he does it.

Jacob wants to say hi to everyone:

Last weeek...so much to talk about!

We bought a car! We traded in Jeff's near cash for clunker and got a 2010 Chevy Malibu and it's PUUUURDY! It was voted one of the best family cars in 2009 by parents magazine and it gets better city mileage than the Honda civic or Ford Fusion (who knew!). The best part of our experience was our salesman (when does THAT ever happen!). He's probably the reason why we purchased it.
So Jeff received the Chemo treatment last Friday. It seemed like an all day process but Jeff handled it with ease. I think his mom was probably in worse shape at times (but who can blame her!). I was forced to put on a smile and go to the circus per Jeff's orders so the boys could have a "business as usual" day. It was fun watching the kids' eyes light up (Jacob LOVED the 7 motorcycles in the round cage! I just couldn't put my heart into it but at least it was comforting that his mom was with him and there's no pain involved with the treatment. Once I got the boys home and off to naps it was time to disinfect everything for Jeff's return. I did not stop cleaning and wiping doorknobs and cabinets for a straight 3 hours. Yet I looked around and wondered what I had done all that time (curse of life with two toddlers I guess).
Jeff came home, took a nap, and then stayed up until 3am trying to master a game on the computer (the doctors said he might have trouble sleeping from the meds the first night). Unfortunately, the one week we should have been the healthiest was the one week all of us got very sick. I wish my vomit was due in part to sympathy pains but alas, it was not. We have felt like zombies and are just starting to feel normal again.
Although Jeff has done very well through the treatments, it has definitely taken a toll on him. He said that he's never had this uneasy feeling before....like he's just not himself. He sleeps a lot during the day but has managed to keep his smile on for the boys and keep positive. I see everything that must be done around me and it exhausts me before I even start doing it (that's probably because of the stomach flu though).
I will keep you all posted but so far so good! We all went to Mahany park today....also known as the bug park. I love being so close to so many fun parks for the little ones.
Thank you all for being so supportive! Hugs and Kisses to everyone!
