Jay was sliced open yesterday (Friday) to remove one of the lumps from his neck. They’ve sent it in for testing and should have results by Tuesday. The doctor says he is 75% certain it is a form of lymphoma (most likely Hodgkin’s). We have our fingers crossed that it’s just some sort of infection. In the meantime, he is slowly recovering from his out-patient surgery. Luckily the weather is nice enough that I can take the boys out for some fun in the sun. And here is the obligatory post-procedure picture.

Takeshi’s class had a haloween party, so we all joined him.

Takeshi finally is big enough to pedal on this helecopter ride. Meanwhile, kenji was chasking down bad guys on the streets.

One of Takeshi’s favorite rides at Dutch Wonderland — The Wonder Whip.

Here is a little video of Takeshi at Sesame Place. Pictures to come…

Kenji loooooves Tygris (because she is too lazy to run away and will stay for his hugs and squishings). And yes, the second picture requires that you tilt your head (or your monitor) to properly view it. My boys like to play with my phone and have broken the camera feature.
