Apples and Pears

If I planted a pear tree it would grow me apples right now..

That's right apples. But at least it's a fruit right?

So at last I come back to this keyboard and put down a bunch of words and phrases and goofy kid quotes with a silly photo tucked in for good measure. Since everything else I have tried to do tonight has gone ridiculously wrong I gave in and decided to blog.

We spent the day with my inlaws, we drove down to visit because a dear person had come to visit from a far far away land. So I packed my cranky three-some into our minivan and caravaned down with all of the crazy semi drivers. The drive was fairly pleasant though I'm sure that the girls are tired of watching Dora Fairy Tale Princess... or you would think so.

Kiley and Kara are on the upswing and for the most part seem to be doing quite well now. They finished their last dose of medication today and head back to the ENT tomorrow afternoon to recheck everything. Good grief I hope we are done with ear stuff for a little while!

They played and played and enjoyed exploring a new territory and digging out all of the toys from the toyroom porch. They even took really good naps and all in all we had an enjoyable day. Two singing bunnies came home with us and have been a source of entertainment (probably more the adults even than K&K lol) There is something so fascinating about them!

Ok... not this type of singing rabbit. But he is so cute I had to include him... look at him!

Kiley loves to walk around and take me by the hand to discover places, Kara on the other hand would much rather explore without me and yell when she needs me to come find her. 

I thought of two other words K&K know: Bumpa (did i mention that one before?) and Hi!

Abby is still not back to 100%.... at this point I would say that she is about 40%

I sure hope that antibiotic kicks nasty illness soon.

I think that if I had a day off, with just Abby, and she were having an out of the world good/awesome day. We would play Barbies. And we would both be happy. (And for some reason that thought makes me tear up)

We have been having a lot of hard days. 

And I have been praying for patience a lot... and a quiet spirit, and a loving spirit. Because I can't do it alone.
