The Bald and the Baby-Bearing

Ever since my sister Hanna was diagnosed with cancer in January, Garrett has been saying that he is going to shave his head to show his support for her as she goes through treatment. Although I prefer Garrett's head with hair, I thought it was sweet of him to do that for Hanna, so he planned on shaving his head when Hanna began chemotherapy and started losing her hair.

Well, Hanna just successfully completed her second round of chemotherapy without any complications (yay!), and while she hasn't started losing her hair yet, she probably will soon. I guess "soon" just wasn't soon enough for Garrett to shave his head, because when I got home from Enrichment this evening, he was completely bald.
Hanna, this is for you:
I still LOVE him, even without hair. (Although I told him he looks a little menacing/scary when he's bald)

I'm now just shy of 22 weeks and although Zofran continues to be my best friend that I can't live without, at least I have an appetite now. It's the best thing EVER! I love you, Food and had been deeply mourning our separation these past 4+ months. Now, we are once again reunited as friends!

I also think I'm actually starting to have a bit of a baby bump! What do you think?

(My mom came to visit a week and a half ago. Although she said I didn't look like I was pregnant, she said she knew I must be because for once in my life, I am not flat chested! Sorry if that's too much info, but it's so true! And my mom makes me laugh with her blunt-ness.)

So that's pretty much all that's happening in the household of the Bald and the Baby-bearing. Stay tuned.....

I do see a small baby bump! Isn't it wonderful to realize that there really is a reason to go through all of the sick?!? Nice haircut, Garrett, that's sweet of you.
(PS-I've realized it's strange that shirts actually fit how they're supposed to for the first time in my life!! )
