Cheeks...hahaha

I asked Kailey to smile and pose for a picture and this is what she came up with...not really what I had in mind, but it is pretty funny.


The other picture is of Bridget snoozing and I thought it was pretty funny...too bad you cannot hear the snoring too.

memories

chicken ball request...again

She loves the shades.








She is really into her sunglasses she got from her Grandma Joy a while ago. She even wore them to Sobey's. hahaha. I am thinking this will be useful for Disneyland and long car rides with the sun beating in.

Bath Time Fun!!!



She is getting better by the minute. She had a blast in the tub tonight and what made it even better for her was the new Tinker Bell towel Auntie Heather sent her. She was so thrilled. At first she was sad that the puppy towel wasn't waiting for her, but when she saw the Tinker towel she was overjoyed. This one will definitely be coming to California with us!! Thanks. :-)

She's on the mend..yahooooo!!!!

Kailey woke up after a 3 hour nap and the first thing out of her mouth was: "Kailey needs chicken balls!" Mom had flowers delivered for us and Kailey got her own rose-bowl and was she ever excited. She was so amazed that it was for her and for one hour straight she sat at the kitchen table oooo'ong and aww'ing and telling me all about it. She grabbed her Tinkerbell teapot and decided to water it over and over again. 'Oh pretty, oh Booootiful...it smells good!...Kailey can touch...Kailey watering...Kailey smelling...Kailey flowers...thank you Nan and Elmo'. Thanks Mom, we needed a pick me up.
Well, Kailey got her chicken balls once I could peel her away from her flowers. There was a massive line so I told her we can grab something else...'no, mommy, Kailey serious...chicken balls'. 20 minutes later we got our food. She ate the entire plate full including all her rice. She was such a gab at supper it was so cute. She needed to go potty so we went to the public restroom and I tapped into my freakish muscular strength to keep her tush from touching any part of that bowl...yuck. Thankfully she is a fast pee'er...phew. Then we went shopping. She is fascinated by garden gnomes and other resin critters...why? I have no idea. We were not coming home with another tacky statue so she picked something equally tacky, but at least it was a toy.

Sick Kailey Bear :-(




I hate seeing my child so sick. I feel so helpless and alone. I think her medication is starting to kick in as she slept through the night and is currently having a long nap without being disturbed by coughing. When is rains it pours it seems. We had major snowfall on top of everything. I went out last night to shovel and the drifts were up to my waist!!! We were trapped in our driveway and due to the nature of her illness (Pneumonia) I have to be sure we can get to the Hospital if we need to. I bundled her up and started shoveling and was making zero headway and my asthma was kicking in due to me being sick as well. A good Samaritan (our neighbour across the street) saw me shoveling and saw poor Kailey standing watching me and he took care of my snow and this morning moved even more snow for me. I cannot begin to express my gratitude for his help. You just never know who is going to be there for you when you are at your lowest. There are still good people in this world and I only hope that I can pay it forward in some fashion in the future. I am literally alone here and it normally doesn't hit me like this. Normally Jack isn't gone back to back like this, normally we do not have record breaking snowfall, normally Kailey is not as sick as she is...All I can say is I am living for our vacation. I cannot help but think maybe there is a reason all this is happening. What is that reason??? God knows I have had strength tested already. Any ideas?

last weekend pictures


Here are a couple of pictures from Dad, Diane and Ryley's visit. I am really behind in my postings due to Miss Kailey being so ill. :-(
They got the girls fancy dresses to wear for movie night and Kailey was thrilled to look like a Princess.
