Onwards and Upwards






Happy New Year!

Christmas with our family for the first time since Rocky was born was very special and wonderful! By a stroke of fantastic good luck, we also got to catch up with our very dear friends from Sydney, Slade, Lolly & Lola, who happened to be on the Coast for just a few days!

We had a great beach holiday for a few weeks before the shine was taken off just a smidge by a stint in hospital with Rocky - oh dear! - he is alright now though. One of our friends joked "Are you trying to check out every emergency room in the country" and although it is not our intention, it certainly feels that way sometimes. Life is really keeping us on our toes. But all is well that ends well. And it ended well. We got to spend a couple of extra days with our family too.

A trip to Beaudesert to see some family and an opportunity to visit some of Rocky's big supporters (The wonderful people @ Dream Centre @ Carrara) made our trip extra special too.

And so we roll into 2010.

Rocky starts 3 yo kinder next week. What a milestone!
His T Cell count is up and so he has come off the antibiotics permanently. Another milestone!
We got a babysitter and Brett and I went to the movies sans child. Another milestone!!

We are so excited for Rocky as he moves into another phase of his life. It still gives us so much pleasure to see him doing regular, everyday little kid things.

We are due to hear back this week about his B Cell function - if all normal no more IVIg. We are hoping the results are good.

Instead of promising to update the blog more in 2010 (which clearly didn't work for me in 2009) I am just going to promise to be in the moment this year, and enjoy each piece of our lives as it unfolds. Hope you do too and have a great year!
