It has been a very emotional week. With Kai's first day of Kindergarten and Ainsley Mae's baptism I am an emotional wreck!! I will write more details later but thought I would post some pictures from our big week.

The past month we have been busy taking a "staycation", celebrating Ainsley's birthday, attending Kai's therapy & sleep study, going on dates with Grandma and Grandpa, and getting ready for school to start. We are going to continue the busy trend this week with four doctors appointments, physical therapy, kindergarten testing, first day of kindergarten, an anniversary party, Ainsley's baptism, and a family dinner. I don't know if that made your head spin, but it does mine!

Unfortunately the past couple of months Kai has been having some "urological" problems, if you catch my drift. At first we thought maybe it was from the trauma of me being incapacitated, however, it has continued to be a problem. So after consulting with his pediatrician we have decided to take him to Primary Childrens on Tuesday to see a urologist. More info to come following the actual appointment.

Another bummer is Kai's back and trunk muscles have gotten worse over the last couple of months. As a result he has a hard time sitting for long periods of time. We are trying to see if there is an adaptive seat we can use, if not we are going to have to resort to a wheelchair. YUCK! Not that he would be in it all of the time, just during sacrament meeting, and maybe sometimes when they are sitting in school. It would also come in handy when we are shopping or going for walks. Strollers just don't provide him enough support.

On to some more positive news, Kai starts kindergarten this Thursday! I will be sure to post some first day photo's. Ainsley started on the 20th and is loving the 3rd grade. She will also be getting baptized next Saturday. Her dad and I are so proud of the choices she is making. We are so blessed to have her as our little girl. I definitely would not have made it through the last few months without her!! You can also look forward to pictures from her special day.

Below are some pictures of our happenings over the last few weeks.
