Fire Station Field Trip

Kayley and Hailey
Allie

The fire fighters were so sweet. Kayley wanted to go up in the fire truck with all of the other kids so they lifted her up. They were so great to her.

I took my preschool class on a tour of the fire station. Grammie went along to help out. She also came over every day that I had class to help Kayley with her studies and to the restroom. I don't know what I would have done with out her! November 19, 2008

Kayley Hospital

Kayley's first wheelchair ride. She had to take all of her new friends with her.

On our first ride we went to the playroom and made a fun picture frame.

Wow! Have you ever seen so many balloons? She was so spoiled by her family and friends.

Yeah it was finally time to go home. We were discharged at 11:30 at night on the third day. We had a hard time getting our wheelchair to take home. She was very tired but wanted to go home to see her sisters. What a keeper.

Kayley's Surgery

Kayley had her surgery on November 6, 2008. She was such a trooper. Grammie and Grandpa met us up there. They were there every step of the way. She got a little nervous as it got closer. They gave her some medicine that made her a little loopy. Mark loved that and was having her catching fish and a frog on the floor by the time they came to get her. We were so incredibly blessed. When they came out to talk to us they were able repair the hip with out going inside. This meant they she only had the cast up to her upper thigh and she only had to have it on 4-6 weeks. They also took one inch of bone from her leg and used it in the hip. When she woke up she was in soooo much pain and the pain lasted for several days.

Kensley's Field Trip

I was able to go with Kensley to the farm on a field trip. She loves it when I take pictures of her. Every time I took a break she was saying "mom take my picture over here". She is so darn cute how can I resist. So I had a hard time choosing which ones to post (I did take over 30). I am so blessed to have people in my life to help me so I can go and do things like this with my girls!
