It's the 17th~ Joli is officially 2 1/2 years old

30 lbs (she lost some weight since last chemo) and exactly 3 feet tall!

Tonight, Joli decided -- somewhere between Lola's house and our house -- to turn her prosthesis upside down. Because she couldn't figure out how to turn it right-side-up again, we had to take it out. This time, though, we let Joli try and take it out, wash it and play with it a bit before putting it back in (we figure that's good "ownership" for her and great for her self-confidence).

We have her "17th" face shot and body shot. That prosthesis looks pretty darn good, huh? And, the body shot... well, Joli's getting tired of doing this Tigger thing. She's done it exactly 30 times in her life!! (1x a month). But, I promised we'd keep going until she's, oh, 18 years old. Whadda you think?

Enjoy!
ps.. check out this article Connecticut College did on Joli and the funraiser De and Chase put together http://www.conncoll.edu/news/enews/jan06-1.html
