Day 22: Chemo Treatment Day and A new baby cousin

Yesterday Kinslee got another chemo treatment.  Her numbers looked great :) we are so happy and thankful for that!  We are not only asking God everyday to watch over our sweet baby girl but also thanking him everyday!!!  I cannot say it enough...God is so Good!!!  Thanks again to all of those who continue to pray for miss Kinslee especially on her treatment days!  Thursdays are still very stressful for Kinslee as well as mommy and daddy.  She cries during most of the clinic visit :( but thankfully she does not experience any pain during treatment.  She just works herself up because she is so scared.   We walk in the clinic and she's already crying "all done mommy...all done"!!! :( breaks my heart she has to go through all of this.  On a lighter note...my sister's baby made his big debut yesterday!!!  Meet Jace Alan Apolinar  7 lbs. 14 ozs.  19 3/4 in.  He's perfect!!!  Congrats Alex, Shauna, and Big Sister Aubrey!!!  We are all so in love already!  Kinslee is ready for them to go home so she can go meet her new baby cousin!  She is officially not the baby anymore!!!! :)

Last Friday we made the move to Aledo into an rv thanks to our friends at Hanner Chevrolet!  Thank you Hunter for making it all possible!!!  We are so thankful for all of our wonderful friends!!! We decided to make the move from the Ronald McDonald House because we wanted to keep Kinslee safe from people kiddos and germs.  We have to keep Kinslee from getting sick or we will end up back in the hospital.  She is very susceptible to infections now so we didn't want to take any chances.  We loved the RMH and have absolutely nothing bad to say about it!  It's a wonderful place but since we had this opportunity we decided to jump on it!  Here is a pic we took the day we said goodbye to the RMH and Mac!

We have just been hanging out here in the camper this past week.  It's really nice having our own space.  Kinslee has pretty much been eating anything and everything lately!  She wants to eat all day and night.  The steroids have her wanting to eat all the time!  Last Saturday we met my mom with Cason and I went to pick Kinslee up out of her car seat and she felt incredibly heavier than the day before!!!  It was like overnight she had gained a few pounds!  She almost weighed 30 pounds at clinic yesterday!!!!  She weighed only 24 pounds when we first got here!  She's gained almost 6 pounds!!!  It's crazy!!!  You would not recognize her!  In the last week we have been watching her little body grow so thick so fast!  It makes me so sad but the doctor reassures us it's the steroids and once she's off of them she will probably not eat!  So I guess she's storing up for that time! She has not felt sick at all this past week :) which is a blessing!   The only thing we are dealing with right now are potty issues and her mood swings (also caused by steroids).  Please continue for Kinslee to stay healthy and infection free!!!  Next Thursday is the big day 29 for Kinslee!!!  The doctor will do another spinal and blood sample from her bone marrow.  This blood sample will tell us that she is in remission and has Kicked Cancers BUTT!!!  We will not be given results until the next week so we will be staying here until we get those but after that hopefully we will be sent home.  Please pray that ALL the cancer will be gone by this day.  Thank you all for your love support and prayers!!!  Hope everyone has a wonderful weekend!
