Happy Birthday Kaitlyn!

Happy 8th Birthday to my sweet girl Kaitlyn! We had such a fun birthday party yesterday. Will update pictures later. I have a lot to say to you, but at this moment I just want to say I love!

And this is to remind mommy of the kind of life of my children...

Something going terriblely wrong in the house this week!

Urr, this week has been a mess!

Meghan is still dragging with diarrhea and vomiting. It has been 3-4days already but at least she is feeling better each day. Took her to the dr. office Tuesday afternoon after she scared daddy with several accidents in a roll. As I expected, we were sent back home without any solution, just to watch her diet and offer her Pedialyte as needed, as we already know! Yeah, revisit if things don't get better for another 5-10days!

I'm been really frustrated with hospital/clinic visits recently. Same things happened with Kaitlyn ER visit last month! No clear diagnosis/resolution after several visits, she's still suffering mysterious stomach pain once a while.

Then this strange stomach bug attached Kaitlyn yesterday, she threw up and had bad stomach pain during her camp. Thank goodness, my mom went there (UH main campus) with her. That saved my life and hers! She cared for her and calmed her until I got there! Thank you so much mom! Kaitlyn got home totally crashed with vomiting and fever.

What made things worse was I felt horrible yesterday morning also woking up with nausea, heart burn, stomach and pain all over my body! So I was pretty much out with all the medicines I took. Luckily, my husband stayed home with Meghan cleaning up her mess, while my mom stayed with Kaitlyn. I just vaguely remembered for a short time (while lying on the bed), Kailtyn throwing up in the bathroom and Meghan screamed in the kitchen wanting a taco that daddy wouldn't let her ate. Not because he did that purposely, but he was trying to easy her diet on meat and diary during the time. Not a pretty picture in the house at all!

Today, we all feel much better. Kaitlyn went back to the camp, came back with a big smile and loud voice again:-) Meghan slowly gets her appetite back with less frequent vomiting and diarrhea. But daddy was down! He threw up twice with stomach. What a week! Please let this week pass as quickly as possible. This has never happened, and I hope for no return at all!

Sleep tight and wish for a better day tomorrow!

Happy 4th of July!

Had friends came over for burgers last night, the kids had so much fun running around the house chasing each other. My healthier version of the burgers didn't taste that good for me, but everyone finished at least ones still:-)

Because I forgot to remind Kaitlyn to clean up her room for any toys she doesn't want to share. Screaming/crying episode went on for 15mins as the younger kids "barged" into Kaitlyn's and destroyed lot of her things, as Kaitlyn claimed. Err, this is not the first time happening between them! Got to fix this down the road...

Well, Meghan had a restless night, waking us up at 4am throwing up little bitty three times. Then once again this morning and had diarrhea several times. Apparently some stomach bugs bothering her, but not us. She reacts fine with no fever. Hope she feel better soon.

Here is Kaitlyn's homemade July 4th breakfast (with sleepy eyes) so cute!

We don't have strawberries at home, so some raspberry jam instead, not that pretty.

July 4th long weekend

Per repeated requests from Kaitlyn, I'm back on blogging mission! (I know, I know...) I'll try to keep it short and frequent each time. Also, I did try to put one condition on Kaitlyn that I'll write only if she writes her own blog. Will see how that work, at least she gets more computer time:-)

First thing on the request list is updating their profile pictures and Lilipie charts. That's when I realized it's hard to find a good solo picture of Kaitlyn, since she always acts too silly and crazy in front of camera. Before you click it, she is out of your sight already. Then, I noticed there were tons of pictures of Meghan, she is the "clown" of the house!

While I blogging, the girls are having fun!
