The photos are somewhat out of order. Donovan helped me bake the cake and decorate some cupcakes yesterday - you can see what his favourite part of "helping" is! Malcolm is teething like mad and refused to move his hands out of his mouth for a birthday photo. In the last photo, Malcolm is posing with his friend Lachlan - they played together for the first part of the party (btw happy birthday to friends Lachlan and Evan who are having birthdays around this time. And to cousins Lucy and Ella who turned four earlier this month).
Malcolm seemed to have fun at his party and Donovan undoubtedly had lots of fun. The weather was nice enough that the kids played outside and most people had their cake and goodies on the deck. Many thanks to everyone who came (and thanks to those who were feeling unwell and stayed away - we missed you but were glad you did not come!). Most people came towards the end of the timeframe so it was a bit busy and we apologize if we were unable to speak with some of you as much as we would have liked to.
Back to the hospital tomorrow for a sedation (for another lumbar puncture/spinal tap - no bone marrow procedure this time) and the start of his next chemo treatment - 96 hours of continuous IV infusion. Wish us luck.
