I am bald. Well, not razor bald but as buzzed as you can be. There's maybe about 1/16 th of an inch of hair. It started coming out last Thursday. I tried not to touch it so we could get the pictures done yesterday & then I went today to have it shaved off. I didn't want to wait until it was scraggly looking, plus having hair everywhere is just annoying. I took Emma with me & she was fine through it all. I considered taking Gracie for about two seconds & remembered when Emma cut her own hair when SHE was three. Yeah, I didn't want to give Gracie any ideas!! I'm ok with it. Just like I am about everything else really. It was oddly liberating in a way. But this is definitely not something I'd ever do without knowing it was going to fall out on it's own. I have a picture. My Mom is the only one who's seen it so far. I'll consider posting it when I get the nerve!! Gracie was so cute when I got home. I had a hat on & told her Mommy had to cut all my hair off....like we'd talked about. We pulled off my hat together & she was rubbing my head with a big smile on her face. Then she kissed my head. It was too cute.
We had fun taking pictures with Amy yesterday. We went to Calico Basin in Red Rock Canyon. It was pretty & the girls had a great time. We should have them in a couple weeks & I'll ask Amy if I can post a couple. I'm excited to see them!
I went back to work today. It is, of course, like I never left. It's nice to be back into a more normal routine....for the most part. It's going to be a challenge with all my doctor's appointments & chemo every Friday. I hope I can keep up!

Dear Krissy,
You came into this world with beautiful blonde hair. That beautiful personality and your loving ways were already forming....and I loved you so much. Your hair kept getting longer and then all of a sudden, when you were around six months old, you lost all of your hair! They told me that happens sometimes to babies, but you were still my beautiful baby girl. Nothing changed, your sweet smile, loving eyes, and sweet personality were all still there, and I loved your more than ever. We will always love you no matter what. Nothing changes on the inside, you will always be the same beautiful person that you've been since the day you were born. I love you!!!!
Love, Mom

Hey you! Well, like they say, "Bald is Beautiful!" You should get a pink tshirt with that on it. It will all grow back and you will be as good as new. I love you Kristine!
Kris, you sure are passing this test with flying colors!! May you heal quickly and these trial-filled days be but a dim memory in the near future. You are a very brave girl and your daughters will grow to know this and love you more for it. Your Dad and I are very proud of you and impressed at how you have kept your spirits up through it all. Only Heavenly Father knows how the rest of us would be able to handle all this if it were happening to us. Unfortunately, probably not as well as you! We love you and want you around for the long run.
Hugs and kisses to you and the family.
Love, Kathi
You are beautiful no matter what! I love you more and more every day and thank God for our friendship. I've always adored and respected you and admired the person you are. Thank you for being you!
All my love and best wishes!

Oh! Perfect time to get those sweet old lady caps. You know-the ones Mrs. Roper used to wear on Three's Company. Zsa-zsa Gabore was also a big fan. I think they sell them at the 99 cent store. You can also change your hair to match your outfit. The options are limitless! A black haired vixen or a platinum bombshell. Or you can finally get that Dragon tatoo that you've been wanting on the side of your head. Now's your chance! Love you guys!
