I kept thinking I would go back and catch up, because we did so many fun things as a family these past 6 months, but I don't think I'll ever find the time. So, I've decided to start fresh with 2014. Although, I can't resist posting all of the fun we've had these past two weeks of my Christmas break, so here goes...<br />

Then, on the first Monday of break, we got together with my family to make Christmas cookies. Surprisingly, Tess was the one who seemed to be the most dedicated to cookie making. When the big girls got bored with it and went off to play, Tess stuck with it and enjoyed loading the cookies up with sprinkles.</div>

This summer has been a little more stressful than others in the past. There is quite a bit of change going on in my life, and I'm not really a big fan of change. Luckily, with all of this change, things have gone very smoothly for us.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Change #1 = Teaching in a new district</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
After 11 years in Yorkville, I finally decided I couldn't take the drive anymore. Kyle was tired of hearing me complain about it, so he convinced me to do something about it. I found the courage to apply elsewhere and was lucky enough to find a position where I can teach the same grade only 20 minutes from home!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
For most of the summer, our garage served as my temporary classroom.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiqgpS86gHe3SuK1Qatr7mtjnJPjhFdKY6Nn0vVn7TRW5Zq89CmVickHyz096t21nPotAVCrbOuab10klqE3JmsjBM2C2hlahh6v8vpuHIyPIS1Omn6r7ZUvdyHjEceNcbmOXd4qH4QPDX6/s1600/IMG_1619.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="212" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiqgpS86gHe3SuK1Qatr7mtjnJPjhFdKY6Nn0vVn7TRW5Zq89CmVickHyz096t21nPotAVCrbOuab10klqE3JmsjBM2C2hlahh6v8vpuHIyPIS1Omn6r7ZUvdyHjEceNcbmOXd4qH4QPDX6/s320/IMG_1619.JPG" width="320" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
But, now all of my supplies and materials are unpacked in my new classroom, and I am almost done setting everything up. So far everyone has been very welcoming at my new school, and I feel comfortable with my decision to transfer. Hopefully I will still feel this way as the year goes on!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Change #2 = Moving into a new home</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Last summer, Kyle and I purchased a plot of land on which we plan to build. We decided to try putting our house on the market this summer, thinking it would take a while to sell. It sold in the first showing, however. So, then we kind of had to scramble to find a rental home to move into until we build. It was a little scary for a while worrying that I'd have no place for my girls to live, but we ended up finding a place only about 2 miles from our old house that is within the same school boundaries as our lot. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
So, more packing began! We decided we'd take these two cuties with us!</div>

We were lucky to be able to start moving into the rental home about a week before we closed on our old house. Of course, the weekend before our closing was Kyle's annual golf trip! Thankfully, my parents and brother came over to help me take several loads of toys, boxes, and other oddly shaped items over to the new house. They were a big help, and I don't think we could have pulled off the move without their help that weekend. Here's a picture of my helpers having dinner on our deck for the last time...</div>

We had a garage sale and sold a lot of stuff, including our pool table and pinball machines. The basement looked so bare, and Ozzie was pretty confused about what was going on.</div>

The girls were confused, too, and Kyri was having a lot of anxiety about the move earlier in the summer. That all seemed to change when she finally realized that all of her precious belongings were coming with her. Before the movers came to move all of our furniture, the new house was pretty much just all toys. When the girls saw this, they were in toy heaven! Although I had the toys neatly packed in these bins, KJ and Tess just couldn't wait to unload them all. Every time we brought another load of stuff to the new house, they would be busy playing and dressing up.</div>

On the final night before we closed on our old house, we all went back over there to clean up the last bit that was left. Our awesome neighbor, Al Stasch, came over to snap some family photos of us on our deck and in front of our house. We're so thankful he did that for us. Even though we were all sweaty and grungy from moving all day, we are happy he was able to capture these pics for the memories. It makes me sad to think that Tessa won't even remember this house that she came home from the hospital to. Kyri may not either... Luckily we do have tons of pictures.</div>

Now that we've been in the new house for about two weeks, we all agree that it feels like home. I am soo amazed at how well the girls did with the change. They didn't even skip a beat. I made sure to set their new rooms up in the same way as their old rooms so that they would feel comfortable, and it seemed to work. On moving day, Larry and Laurel had the girls for the whole day and evening, and they did a great job tiring them out in the pool. The girls were exhausted when they got home and both crawled into bed without a fight and were asleep in minutes. I was shocked at how smoothly that first night went. And we haven't had a problem since. Yay for flexible kids!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
We are so thankful for Larry, Laurel, and my mom for helping out with the kids so much this summer. I definitely could not have done all of the packing and unpacking that I had to do if my little "helpers" were always there. While I wish I could have spent more time with them, it was great to hear about all of the fun they were having with their grandparents. We are so lucky to have such a supportive family. Thanks for all of your help! We couldn't have had such smooth transitions without you!</div>

Donna and I decided to take all of the girls up to the lake midweek so that we didn't miss out on this great swimming weather. I'm so glad we did, because we had a GREAT time! All of the girls were so good, and they loved playing together.<br />
<br />
The last couple of times that Kyle and I had been to the lake, Tessa was not really into walking in the sand, and she always wanted to just sit on a chair or towel rather than getting up and playing. She started out this way again, but after a little while of watching her cousins have fun, she decided to join in. The rest of the time, she got in and out of the water on her own loving both the sand and the water! All of the girls loved it, and Donna and I got to just sit back and relax!! We have been anxiously awaiting the time when all of our babies were independent enough to play on their own at the beach so that we could just lounge! Finally!! : ) The first day we spent 3 hours at the beach, and the second day we spend 5 hours! W<span style="text-align: center;">e even had the whole beach to ourselves for a while!</span><br />

And this picture cracks me up! Kyri and Charlie wanted to sleep in the same bed. When I went up there, I found them like this. Whose legs are whose?? That's Kyri's foot over Charlie! Poor Charlie. Everytime I looked at these two throughout the night, Kyri was smothering her with a different limb. Charlie didn't seem to mind, though, because they both slept through it all!</div>

We had a successful lake trip! We moms were very proud of ourselves for keeping all five girls happy and entertained the whole time with no problems. I'm so glad we went! Hopefully we'll be able to all get up there together again before winter!</div>

After the rain stopped, we went to a playground to let the kids run around a bit. After they played for a while, we realized it was actually a splash park, too. The kids were surprised and thrilled to run around in the water on that humid day. <br />

The weekend before the 4th of July, we went up to the lake and stayed until Weds., July 3rd. The first two days were rainy, but we were able to get some fishing in the first night in between showers. Kyri is getting better at casting, but she loses focus quickly. So, Kyle and I would take over her pole while she searched for bugs, feathers, flowers, and other interesting things in nature. Then, when Kyle or I got a bite, Kyri would run over to reel it in. She loved holding the fish and releasing them into the water. Tess wanted to hold them so badly, too, but they kept slipping out of her hands. : )</div>

<span style="text-align: center;">The second day it poured the whole day/night. So, we decided to explore Rockford and check out a museum that we'd heard about. It was a history museum with a whole floor devoted to dinosaurs. Of course Kyri was thrilled!</span> She knew the names of random dinosaurs that I'd never even heard of, and she was excited to talk to a real paleontologist who worked there.<br />

The next few days cleared up and warmed up a bit. Unfortunately, it was never warm enough to really enjoy swimming. Kyri got in a couple of times, and Tess tried it out one day. Although the temperature was in the 70s, there was a wind that made it really chilly when the girls came out of the water, so we didn't spend much time at the beach. We did do a lot of boating, though. My mom came up for Sunday and Monday, and Larry and Laurel came up for Sun-Tues., but unfortunately I didn't get any pictures when they were all up there. We got to enjoy a campfire, catch fireflies, and watch the bats fly over us (another K.J. thrill).</div>

When we got home on Wednesday, we had a busy day. We went to look at some rental homes and finally decided on one. For those of you who don't know, last summer we bought a lot to eventually build on. We decided to put our house on the market this summer, and since our house sold after the first showing, we had to move quickly to find a place to live during this in between period before our house is built. We signed on a place and will begin moving in next week. Our closing date for the current place we're living in is the following week. </div>

That night, we actually made it to the fireworks! This is the first year Kyri has stayed awake long enough to go watch them. We went and sat on our new lot to watch them, and we met our new neighbors who showed us just where to sit to get the best view. Unfortunately, Tess was scared to death from all of the pre fireworks going on in the neighborhood, so Kyle took her back to the car and drove around with her until she fell asleep. He said she fell asleep with her Leopard over her eyes because she was so freaked. Kyri and I enjoyed the show, though, and I'm so happy that she lasted this year!</div>

The next day, we met the Riebe family at the zoo. It was pretty hot, and since we've had such a cool summer, we weren't used to the heat. The girls did pretty well, though, and seemed to have fun. Tess insisted on getting a picture on the lion!<br />

And this picture below is classic Tessa right now. Ever since the 4th of July parade when she collected that bag of candy, she can't go anywhere without it. It's like her new "lovey". She brought it with to the zoo and carried it around all day, and she even has to sleep with it. (Don't worry, I take the bag out as soon as she falls asleep so she won't suffocate!) When she wakes up, it's the first thing she asks for. Today she even brought it with to church. Luckily, she doesn't try to eat candy all the time. She just needs to hold it. Too funny. I hope this phase doesn't last long. It's hard enough to keep track of the Leopard blankie!</div>

As I've mentioned in the last few posts, this summer has been very rainy. We've been spending a lot of those rainy days at the library. There have been fun programs to go to, and the girls just love reading and doing the puzzles in the children's area.</div>

Along with Kyri's love for dinosaurs, insects, and volcanoes, she also has a minor obsession with fruit bats these days. You can often find her and Tessa pretending they are bats flying around our house. Imagine her excitement then, when our public library had a bat expert visit with real live bats to pet!! Kyri sat with her eyes glued to the bat expert for the whole hour-long presentation. She is still telling people random facts that she learned about bats that day. (Tess and I lost interest after the first half hour and decided to play some computer games...until it was time to pet the bats!)</div>

I also had the opportunity to go to a Story Time at the library. The girls had been going to this all school year with Laurel, but this is the first time I got to go and watch. While I was there, the question that I kept asking myself was, "When did my baby become a big girl?" I was amazed to see Tess participating with the class and sitting and listening for most of the stories. She has really grown up these past few months!<br />

As always, we continue to read a ton at home, too. I brought home a whole basket full of books from my classroom, so the girls are loving the new titles to read through. (And Kyle and I are enjoying a change in reading material, too.)</div>

I love this picture. The girls had been arguing most of the morning, but when I got out of the shower, I found them sitting together like this with Kyri reading (or retelling) a story to Tessa. It was so precious! It shows that they can be good friends at times. They did go back to screaming at each other shortly after, but they're playing better together more and more these days. </div>

Kyle took off work the Thursday before Father's Day, and we snuck in two days at the lake. It was beautiful boating weather...not too hot and not too cold. The air was still a little chilly for swimming (although Kyri got right in the water with no problem.), but the beach was still fun and relaxing.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Tessa seems to only want to sit on my lap while we're on the boat, which can get a little uncomfortable at times, so I was really excited when she fell asleep and I could get a break for a little while. I will love it if we can get another summer of boat napping. Both of my girls get rocked to sleep on the boat!</div>

Kyri started showing an interest in soccer last summer when Donna played with her at the lake. Then, Donna, Owen, and the girls gave Kyri a soccer ball and shin guards (or kicking socks as KJ used to call them) for her birthday. So, it was time to try them out this summer. She has had three practices now, and she's really enjoying it. I don't know anything about soccer, so I have no idea if she has any talent at this point, but she looks like all the others out there. There are about 15 three and four-year-olds at her practices, so it's a little chaotic. It's hard to keep them all focused at the same time, but Kyri remembers what she learns and practices at home, too. Rather than being an aggressive player, she's more of a graceful soccer player. : )</div>

This summer has started off very wet. It's one of the rainiest summers I can remember in a long time! We've been doing a lot of art on our down time. One day, I left the girls alone for a few minutes with watercolors. When I came back, I got a glimpse of Tessa's future. I won't be surprised if she gets a sleeve of tattoos like this one she designed on her arm!</div>

The only way Kyle could get all of us girls excited about a baseball game is by taking us to "Princess Night" at the Cougar's game. Unfortunately, it rained A LOT and delayed the game a few hours. Because of that, the girls didn't get to participate in the princess parade or see a firework show at the end. It was still a fun game, though. Kyri caught a foam ball, so she was happy! And the girls got Dippin' Dots, so that's always a big hit!</div>

My mom and I took the girls to Brookfield Zoo on a beautiful breezy day. Kyri's favorite part was the dinosaur exhibit. Tessa wasn't so sure at first. She put her leopard blankie over her face for a while to hide from the scary dinos. Eventually, she was able to look at them. : )</div>

A few days later, we went to pretty farm with a giant fairy garden. Sue and Kailey told us about this great place, and we all met there on a rainy Thursday morning. At first it was cold and sloppy, but luckily, the rain cleared after our picnic lunch, and the girls (plus Grady) had a lot of fun in this little tent full of fairy activities. </div>

We got the whole gang up to the lake for the first weekend of the year. Unfortunately it was FREEZING!! We still made the most of it and did all of the usual activities like fishing, boating, roasting marshmallows, etc. No swimming went on, though! And of course, the most popular activity was playing on the golf cart. <br />

We decorated eggs the night before Easter, and I was excited about these handy egg grabbers that I found for the girls to use. They were really easy for them, and it allowed the girls to dye the eggs themselves. We only had one crack!<br />

After we were done with the eggs, Kyri and Kyle got busy preparing for the Easter Bunny. They made a nest outside her door and put carrots in it as a snack for the bunny. During all of this, Tessa had crawled into my lap and was clinging to me with a death grip. She kept looking all around and over her shoulder in fear. I finally realized, she was terrified that the Easter Bunny was going to come in and get her. She didn't want to go to bed that night. Then, in the morning, when I went in to get her, she didn't want to get out of her crib. The first thing she said was, "Bunny go bye bye??" For the next few nights, she had to ask that same question before bed to make sure he wasn't coming back!<br />

We were lucky to go to Disney for Spring Break again this year. This time we went with Kyle's parents, and they were very generous to let us stay in their suite with them at their Disney Vacation Club hotel.<br />
<br />
I love these first two pictures, because they show how incredibly excited Tess was. Riding in the limo and seeing the airplanes thrilled her!<br />
<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
On the airplane, she had some trouble getting comfortable, so she spent a lot of the flight on the floor where she could stretch out. And she had to have my phone or the iPad in her hands at all times. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Kyri was an angel the whole flight. We barely even heard from her while she read her V-Reader.</div>

Tess went through some unhappy moments on the flight because she was so tired and couldn't get comfortable, but she finally fell asleep as the plane touched down!</div>

That night, we walked around the hotel grounds a little bit and got some dinner. It was the warmest night we had, and the girls loved being able to walk outside without coats on. Kyri pranced around calling us "Nature Trackers" pointing out all of the "unique" birds that she saw in the pond. Tess loved that a giant turtle swam right up to the bridge we were standing on.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The next morning, we slept in a little bit and then got ready to go to Animal Kingdom. The girls were so excited for their first day at Disney!</div>

We went on a couple of rides and did a couple of shows at Animal Kingdom during the day, but I didn't get any pictures on those. We ate lunch at the Tusker House, and it was delicious! There were some characters who visited our table. Kyri was excited to see them, and Tessa was, too...from afar! </div>

The next day (Tuesday), we took it easy in the morning and then took a boat over to Downtown Disney. The temperature was FREEZING and it was really windy, which made it worse. We did some shopping and bought some warm sweatshirts for the girls since Florida was having record lows this week.<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
This was an attempt at a nice pic of the grandparents with the girls, </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

To Kyri's surprise there was a giant dinosaur restaurant at Downtown Disney. While we waited for our table, she got a chance to tryout her dream job and dig for fossils. She tells everyone she wants to be a paleontologist when she grows up, so this was heaven for her. Tess just liked to be able to throw sand around.</div>

Then Cinderella came over for a visit. At first Tess was even a little unsure of her favorite princess, but Cinderella played a quick game of peek a boo. This worked, and Tess ran over to sit on her lap. She had to show her the picture of Cinderella on her dress, too.</div>

On Wednesday, we headed into The Magic Kingdom. When Tessa first saw the castle, she whispered, "Wowwww. Then she kept announcing to everyone, "That's Dinderella's castle!!"</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Kyri informed us that it was actually her castle, and that everyone was waiting for her to arrive.</div>

The first thing we did was wait in a really long line to meet Merida. Kyri even got to shoot her bow and arrow! After standing here for so long, we decided we didn't need to stand in line for characters anymore since we saw so many last year and we had seen a bunch in the past few days already.<br />

Kyle had the Disney app on his phone, which was really helpful, because it told us how long the wait times were for all of the rides and also the times for all of the fast passes. We had a good system going where Kyle would run and get us all fast passes, we would go on a ride with a short line, and then we would go use our fast passes for another ride after that. For most rides we didn't have to wait more than 5-10 minutes. </div>
<br />
For lunch, we were able to get into the Beast's castle. I was so impressed by how detailed they made it. I think I was almost as excited as Kyri was to see all of the different rooms decorated just like the movie. In the ballroom, they even made it look like it was snowing outside the windows. <br />

This isn't the best picture, but Kyri was showing the ROSE in the West Wing. She couldn't believe it! I thought she'd be scared in this dark room, but she thought it was so cool. Tess was very freaked in this room, on the other hand.<br />

We stayed late in the Magic Kingdom to watch the light parade, but I was disappointed with the insane crowds. We got stuck in a bad location for the parade and weren't able to see much. I remember the light parade and firework show as being so magical, and Kyri loved it last year, too. So, she and I really wanted to stay for it. After standing smooshed against a huge group of people for the parade, Kyri decided that we should leave before the fireworks started. I agreed that it wasn't worth it since we were so uncomfortable.</div>

And then the weather finally crawled into the 70s!!! So, we ran back to the hotel to get our swim suits on. There was a small pool right by our room that was perfect for the girls.</div>

The last day (Friday), we packed up early and then spent the rest of the day outdoors since it was finally warming up. We visited Downtown Disney, again, for some last minute shopping. Then, we hit the pool for a little while before we had to board the shuttle for the airport. We tried to get in as much sun time as we could!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Unfortunately, our trip ended on a bad note. Larry and Laurel got bumped from our return flight and had to stay an extra night at the airport hotel. So that was annoying.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Overall, though, we had a wonderful trip. We were able to see and do a ton of things, and it's always so fun to watch through the girls' eyes. I'm glad that Larry and Laurel were able to share in the memories, too. On this trip, Kyri seemed like an old pro when it came to the characters and rides. It's hard to believe she's growing up so fast! I was so proud of her throughout the whole trip. She was on her best behavior and truly seemed grateful for all that she got to do. It was really fun to watch Tessa this trip, too. While she was with us last year, she wasn't able to communicate with us like she could this year. I loved seeing her face light up whenever she saw something new or exciting, and she used the sweetest little voice to show how amazed she was.</div>
<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
I had to throw this picture in at the end. The day after we got back home, the girls didn't want to take off their princess gear. They wore them all day!</div>

I can't believe how much the girls are growing and changing. Gwyneth and Lillian are learning new words every day and they are going through all the fun phases of their age.<br />

Right now, Gwyneth seems to be my snuggle buddy, and Lillian is always exploring a new adventure!<br />

<div style="text-align: left;">
Morgyn is so smart and is like a little parrot these days with her talking. So far, she has been the most easy going of all five Knutson grandchildren. Grady is still the energizer bunny and always on the move. Although, I've heard he is a snuggler when he is tired... I've yet to see that!</div>

At the end of the night, the remaining partiers ended up around this table while Tessa entertained. I love this picture, because if you look closely, you can see that Morgyn is asleep with her hands over her ears. We must have been too loud for her!</div>

Tessa's actual birthday was on a Monday. She had fun at Grandma Nancy's, where they sang to her and ate cupcakes. Then at home, we sang to her again and had some of the left over cake from her party. She was so excited to be sung to, even though it was the third time. I guess it never gets old!</div>

Tessa is definitely acting her age these days. It seems she spends most of her days in timeout. I know it's typical for her age, but it's so challenging! Apparently, she gets her hard-headedness and defiant ways from her father! Larry and Laurel claim she reminds them so much of Kyle at that age. I hope this phase ends soon, because my face turns really red when she has her crazy temper tantrums in public!</div>

Of course, she still has her very sweet moments, too. She is learning so much and saying new words everyday. I love watching her figure out the world around her, and she seems so proud when she grasps something new. Tessa loves to sing all day long. Here is a video of her singing a combination of Twinkle Little Star and the ABCs. </div>

For some reason, K.J. was in a crabby mood. Usually she loves going skating, but during this outing, she looked like she was in need of a nap. It was her first exercise after being couch ridden for about 3 weeks after her tonsillectomy. So, maybe it was too much. Either way, she was able to skate without holding on, so I was really proud of her progress! (Even if she was a crab!) : )</div>

And we FINALLY got some snow! We had to wait until February, but there was finally enough to go outside and play in! You can hear on this video that Tessa was not a big fan. For about the first half hour that we were out there, she clung to me. I couldn't put her down without her screaming. Kyri, on the other hand, LOVED it as always!</div>

Kyri's was pretty high and lasted for about four or five days. She had flu-like symptoms and was miserable, and I was freaking out because she was scheduled for tonsil surgery the next week, but I knew they wouldn't do it if she wasn't feeling well. Luckily, Dr. Lin gave her a prescription for Tamaflu, and that got rid of the fever and nasty cough pretty quickly. (More on her surgery later in the post). <br />
<br />
Two days after Kyri's fever started, Tessa spiked one, too. She got a nasty, croupy cough with her fever and was having a hard time breathing. She and I visited the emergency room one of the nights because the steamy shower and blast of fresh air outside wasn't doing the trick. When we got there, Tessa's fever was 103.5 and she was putting on a coughing/barking show. I called her my little seal while she was being examined, and she lifted her head up, pointed at her chest and said, "No, I Tessie B!". I cracked up. Even when she was feeling miserable, she still had to set the record straight. The doctor kept her there for about 3 hours to monitor her breathing. <br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgStDJ49YuPUEO0xCx3njRo-LLdssJfNnUnEvoBCOFR97lZN1l4O2v4PpQ0vkRS1JWttkdv8-LwYt0oLVeMF-y8h9am82-Ok0xdqJCRXzR15Q8umsVAG9asuuuU630C20MaN9wIAtRVd5op/s1600/IMG_0909.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgStDJ49YuPUEO0xCx3njRo-LLdssJfNnUnEvoBCOFR97lZN1l4O2v4PpQ0vkRS1JWttkdv8-LwYt0oLVeMF-y8h9am82-Ok0xdqJCRXzR15Q8umsVAG9asuuuU630C20MaN9wIAtRVd5op/s320/IMG_0909.jpg" width="240" /></a></div>
<br />
She got a heavy dose of ibuprofen, a steroid, and in the breathing treatment there was a medicine to treat the croup. They also gave her a huge glass of straight apple juice... By the time we left (around 1:00 in the morning), she was wired and wanted to walk all by herself! I was so happy to see her perk up from the lump that she was when we went in. After a few days, she was back to her normal crazy self!<br />
<br />
<br />
So, the next week, we visited the hospital again for Kyri's tonsil and adenoid surgery. (She had been battling sinus infections this past year, and she was on 5 different antibiotics since October. We were referred to an ENT, and after looking at Kyri's throat for about 10 seconds, the Dr. said her tonsils and adenoids needed to come out.) Aunt Kay found Kyri a book about the surgery, and it was perfect to prepare her for what to expect. K.J. was soooo brave!<br />

Before Surgery - Waiting patiently</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
(for almost 2 hours... good thing cartoons were on!)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

When the anesthesiologist came in to explain to Kyri what would happen, she stopped him and <i>TOLD HIM</i> all about the "magic mask" that he was going to put on her. He cracked up and looked at us in disbelief. We told him we read a book about it, and he was impressed. The nurse was surprised how much K.J. knew about the surgery, too. She asked us for the title of the book so they could get one for future patients. : ) <br />
<br />
The whole surgery lasted only about 15 minutes! We met with the Dr. afterwards, and he told us her tonsils were huge, infected, and had way more scarring than he has seen in a kid so young. So, it made us feel better about the decision to have them removed.<br />
<br />
After about a half an hour, we were able to go back into the recovery room. While Kyri was really excited about the popsicle part after the surgery, it didn't turn out to be so fun at first. : ) The nurses kept trying to get her to suck on a freeze pop, but Kyri was crying and coughing a lot. They gave her something to make her more comfortable, and it put her to sleep for a while longer. Eventually, the nurses gave us the okay to go home, but K.J. was still pretty tired and uncomfortable.<br />

She was pretty nauseous for the first couple of hours after we got home and got sick a little bit, too. But by late afternoon, she was perking up a bit. She enjoyed getting to eat ice cream for dinner! (Thanks to Auntie Chrissy for giving her a gift card for ice cream - along with a dinosaur book to keep her busy!)</div>

K.J felt so special to get so many deliveries, along with cards and phone calls to check on her. Thank you, everyone, for helping lift her spirits!!<br />
<br />
Her recovery went pretty well for the next couple of days, but around the 7th day after surgery, her pain spiked up again pretty badly. The paperwork that we got said that would happen, and at her follow up appointment, the Dr. said that was a normal part of the healing process. The poor thing felt worse the second week than she did right after the surgery. We felt so bad for her. Now that we're onto week three, she seems to be doing much better. She still complains of a sore throat occasionally, but she is back to eating all of her normal foods. Hopefully this surgery will help her feel better in the long run!<br />
<br />
Looking back on all of the sickness and recovery that went through this house, I have to say I didn't mind having an excuse to sit around and snuggle my girls for a few weeks. I just wish they didn't feel so miserable throughout all of this!

The weekend before New Year's, we went down to Utica to an indoor water park called Grizzly Jack's by Starved Rock. We stayed in a two bedroom Villa with Owen, Donna, and the girls. Along with the water park, the place also had an indoor amusement park with small rides that were perfect for the ages of all the little ones. The weekend was short, but it was nice to get away for a couple of days. Unfortunately, I didn't get any swimming pictures, but here are a few from the trip.<br />

It was a COLD weekend, which made it even more fun to be able to swim indoors!</div>

And, I can't forget this picture. We just happened to stumble upon this baby lion while walking through the lobby. Ha! So, of course we had to feed her and get our picture taken with her!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I know K.J. looks scared in this shot, but she was just really listening to all the facts the owner was telling us about how big this little fur ball will get. Both girls loved this lion! Anytime we were in the lobby, Tess asked about her. And when the lion wasn't there, Tess would say, "Linon nigh nigh?"</div>
