Our pink butterfly ice cream princess
Our pink butterfly ice cream princess……
Addi is doing great and had a great week. She has been asked to be the ambassador for the March Of Dimes for our community. We went to our first meeting with the team on Monday of last week. We really enjoyed meeting everyone. Then she had to get some bloodwork at our local hospital. As usual she enjoyed seeing our favorite nurses. These wonderful nurses love Addi so much and we had the funnest visit today with LOTS of laughs. Those belly laughs are the BEST!

Addi has a doctors appointment with her oncologist on the 8th to get her cleared for radiation. Then her first appointment at Emory to see the Radiation Oncologist is on the 10th. They will evaluate her to see if she can handle the radiation and if so get everything set up to get that started either end of May or first of June. Please be in prayer with us that she will have minimal side effects and handle this like she has everything else….like a warrior!
Me and Addi had fun with these sweet pink ice cream pictures. She loved the idea to dress up like a pink butterfly and have a pink ice cream picnic. She loves pink, butterflies and pink ice cream so she was in heaven. Had to get these pictures in preparation for her pink ice cream party. Being a photographer is so much fun when you have a beautiful baby girl to be your subject! Leanne Masten Photography
I’m so excited about Addi’s 3rd Birthday Bash and enjoying the planning. It’s going to be a great time and I can’t wait for her to see it all. Pink Ice Cream overload! If you don’t know the back story about the pink ice cream go back and watch the video. It’s priceless! I’ve been asked about when her birthday is….May 26 and also asked about gifts or things she needs or wants. We truly appreciate that so many want to bless her on her birthday but…Please NO gifts. This child is so blessed she will probably never play with all the toys she has now. If you really want to do something for her, send her $3 in a card and after her birthday we will take her and let her pick out a few things and donate what’s left over. Knowing her it will be a $2 bag of sour worms so we will donate to one of our favorite pediatric cancer organizations. Or donate to your favorite charity in honor of her birthday. This is all I could come up with for all that have insisted on sending her something. She loves the cards and we enjoy opening them and reading them together so your prayers and happy birthday wishes are all she really needs.
Cards can be sent to:

My former employer MSA started a Relay for Life team in honor of Addi! We are so excited to support such a wonderful cause in our girls honor. Addi has also been asked to lead the survivors lap on May 18 in Seneca, SC. We are so humbled, honored and extremely blessed that she can walk that survivors lap!!!! Warren (WaWa) is a brain cancer survivor, I am a melanoma skin cancer survivor and then we have our little Addi, so we will walk that lap with a grateful heart that God has seen fit for all 3 of us to walk in honor of the ones who are fighting and to walk in memory of those who lost their battle to this beast!
Please follow the link to the team page and donate for Addi and all who are fighting the fight. I personally will advocate for more pediatric cancer research!
Oh yeah….her hair is growing back. 💗 We’ve come to love her bald and she’s just the cutest little bald headed baby but her hair was gorgeous so I’m excited it’s coming back. Her eyelashes and eyebrows literally grew back overnight.
Thank you for the continued prayers and love. We appreciate them more than I can tell you in words.
Here is the link for shirts. I was asked not to stop selling the shirts just yet so I’m going to continue for a while longer.
