Hello fellow bloggers, long time no blog, sorry bout that.
The weather is heating up here, dont know if thats a blessing or not but we are very grateful for air conditioning thats for sure!
The kids have been back at school now for just over a week. The holidays were as hectic as usual but for some reason wasnt as full on as usual, go figure.
We have had Maddisyn home from school since last Wednesday till Tuesday this week. She has major probs with her ear and had been diagnosed with a burst eardrum on Friday, but for some reason i didnt buy it as that causes excrutiating pain, from what her dad has said, but other than a high temp and liquid coming from the affected ear, the only thing that she has complained of was a bit of a headache, so we revisited the docs on Tues (a different one this time) and he has told us that she needs grommets again and specialists and such. Sooo he gives us a referral and i ring this place to set up an appointment and they are booked up for the rest of the year and i cant make an appointment for next year untill December. Suck. But, she seems ok now and is back at school and we just wait untill December.
But as one drama ends, another starts. We just get Maddy back to school and that same night, Ethan gets a temperature and comes up sick. I was able to sneak him into Maddys appointment and apparently he has the beginnings of glue ear (his ear is at the swollen stage rather than all the yucky liquid stage) so with early detection, we should be able to save anything going as bad as his sister. We have also shaved his head to a number 3 and now he looks exactly like his dad and brother. Once we had cut his hair, it went thick and real untidy, just like Andrews and Liams, sooo he got the same solution :) Ethan is also at daycare 3 times a week now and after a lot of resistance, the past couple weeks has been a breeze. He even waves me off now.
Liam has a new hobby. Maddisyn accidently broke his PS2 so now that he isnt in his room for hours on end, he has taken an interest in wrestling. In fact, everyone has, except for me and Katy. He also spends a lot more time outside, where he should.
Kaytlynn has had a setback the last week or so. Her uncle H got her a sizezble fishtank, for her birthday, complete with pumps and pretty lights and so forth, and also gave her some cash to get the fish with. Well to save her some $$ she convinced her dad to give her Ethans small fish (a pressie along with a small round bowl, from uncle H as well for his birthday) To cut the story short, the fish disappeared and were found in the pump. She was soooo upset.
Kyla is barrelling through teenagehood like a bull in a chinashop. She wants to start going to concerts and is wearing makeup 24/7 (Does anyone remember the tomboy Kyla who wouldnt be caught dead in a dress let alone wear makeup!!) I dont mind the lipgloss and the nailpolish but she has now graduated to eyeliner (panda eyes style) and foundation, both of wich make her look about 15-16. sigh
