coloring Easter eggs at the apartment in Seattle

Still having trouble walking and getting up by herself.  Here she is using the bed to stand up.

playing at the apartment

Easter egg hunt at the apartment.  

Both our parents came down from Anacortes to spend the weekend with us.

Soooo.... we weren't supposed to.... but.... we went home one day.  Just for the day.  What did she want to do?  Go the Gere-A-Deli, her favorite restaurant, eat Chicken Mango Penne and bring them some tulips.

And visit some of her best buddies.  

Here she is with the Rutz' and the Fowlers' watching some chickens.

On the way out of town we stopped by Tulip Town to see 

Grandma Terry who was working there.

Back in Seattle!

MJ had one week that was particularly long and hard.  In preparation for that week she and I had a tatoo henna party;  we prepared the Warrior Princess for battle!

Long days in the infusion chair...

Our best bud Ashley came to visit and spend some time with Sophia.

Lots of fun Physical Therapy.

The therapist was great about involving Sophia.

After that long week of infusions, Madelyn's counts crashed and we were on lock down.  My friends David and Shelly, Uncle David and Auntie Shelly, came to visit and help entertain us.  We couldn't go anywhere until her counts rebounded.  The apartment and the hospital.  That was it.
