Trying Week, happy father's day!

The gals caught hand foot mouth disease anf staph on the trip. Mia started having painful blisters Sunday night and we took her to Pensacola hospital last Monday morning. She was treated for allergy. We flew back. She suffered from painful itch on the plane but toughed it out. It was not until Tuesday morning till we realized Kenzie got the blistering rash too. I was already at work and had to rush home to deliver the baby carseat. Three doctors couldn't diagnose it. I rushed back to work for a job interview and thought i wasn't gonna make it. After 12 i met them back at the dermatologist who said it was staph. Tuesday night i started having one blister on my right hand index finger. I convinced Mike we should voth see our doctor just to make sure. Our primary doc took  look at Mia's hands and my aching throat anf said you've got hand foot mouth disease.  With the odds of the rest of week of Mike and me both having fever and rash we may as well go buy lottery tickets. It is supposed to be very rare for adults to contract this disease. Mike is just recovering. He said he would never forget this Father's Day and the gifts his girls gave him.

Beach wedding

This is the first wedding both gals attended. Wedding started at 6:45 at Santa Rosa beach. Reception was at 8:30 in town. Both girls behaved well even though dinner was well into the night way past bed time.  I thought of the day I will marry them off and go5 a little sentimental.

Today I went out to dinner with my girlfriend. Before we left Mia wanted to come and she was in tears. I told her this is mommy's play date and I needed some time for myself. I told her I will be back and will bring her a surprise. I had a nice dinner and icecream at a gelato shop and brought home a cupcake for her. She behaved well and ate dinner well. I am very proud of her.

Happy Mother's Day 2014

I was woken up by Mia presenting her mother's day gift to me. It is a silver necklace with amethyst and ruby engraved with Mia and Kenzie. These are their birth stones. How sweet. Mike and Mia cooked me pancakes for breakfast. We went to music class as usual. It is my first mother's day with both girls.

Happy Easter 2014

Mia has Kenzie in her Easter picture this year. The two sisters wore sister outfits. Kenzie is loved.

Roseola strike s again

Kenzie had a fever since last Friday. I took her in twice this week. Yesterday she broke out in rash. We suspect ed roseola and the pediatrician confirm ed it. Her fever was gone after the rash appeared. Today she is in better mood. In two days she lost almost one pound.

She is also able to stand holding onto something. She stood for a second on her own today and flopped to her buttocks today. I feel that in no time she will be walking.
