Picture taking funk but we are still thankful!

So I think I've been so busy and so preoccupied that I haven't even touched my camera for about 2 weeks. Some things that have been going on.....Ali's abdominal ultrasound and upper GI came back clean....I might have already posted that. On Monday she had a bone marrow draw and I just got the call a few minutes ago telling me it was normal. I didn't want to scare Ali but they were testing her marrow for leukemia as well as some other things so that's something to definately be thankful for. We are still waiting on just one test that we won't know for another week but she most likely has ITP. I could try and explain it but it's best if you just google it. That is what they thought she had originally but then got off track a bit so now we are back to square one. We 've been doing our own little experiment with her tummy issues.....I think she is lactose intolerant. We have been keeping a journal and every time she eats or drinks something with milk in it, she gets stomach cramps.....why the dr never tried that is beyond me.
Everyone else is doing great. AJ and Ryan have hockey tournaments this weekend so we will be shuttling back and forth to Riverside. My mom is flying in tonight to be with us tomorrow and the weekend. My goal is to get some shopping done this weekend...I'm almost done! Our Thanksgiving is a little small this year but we are still thankful for who is coming. Adam, Jenn and the girls will be here along with Jenn's dad, and then our fam with my mom. I'm trying out some new recipes that look yummy in the pics but we will see how they turn out......thanks Micah for the yummy Turkey tips! :-) And if you are reading this blog, that means you care enough for our family to check in and see what exciting things we are up to or not up to and we are very thankful for YOU! Have a wonderful Turkey Day!
