So much for keeping this updated...
I am working on getting my Christmas cards sent out to everyone. And finishing up some Christmas crafts. We need to wrap all the gifts and ship to families far away soon so they can get them before Christmas. :) I am still waiting on some gifts to come in the mail. And I think there are a few more gifts to buy. UGH!! :) I enjoy it though. LOL.
I guess that's all for now - I'll leave y'all with the most recent picture of Miss Kayla.

Back to school & swim class
We did her first homework assignment tonight - the "Me bag" (fill a bag with 5 things that tell something about you). She picked (with a little of my help) a crayon (because she likes to color & write), a dolly (because she likes to play with dollies), necklace/bracelet (because she likes to dress up), her swim goggles (because she likes to swim & goes to swim class) and a piece of candy (because she loves candy). LOL...that was a fun homework assignment.
And tonight was her first swim class for the fall session. She has the same teacher from last time - Ms. Alana. She's pretty nice and Kayla likes her. Kayla has 2 other kids in her class, but the little boy will be moving to a more advanced class next week, so it'll just be her and a little girl named Kristen. That's awesome because it means more time in the water for Kayla. Since she moved up to the next level the kids are in the water the whole time and poor Kayla is too short to stand up in the water so she has to hold on to the wall the whole time. I thought she would struggle with that but she did pretty awesome. Overall she had a great time tonight - she will be swimming like Daddy in no time. :)

First day of "pre-school", well sorta...
Here she is in her new outfit I bought her at Kmart (yes Kmart still exists - they have one in Corpus) :) I think I may be overly obsessed with stars, but that's ok!! FYI my "baby" girl is in the "big" girl section of the store now. :( She may be in the bigger sizes, but she's still short so her capris look like high-waters.
So her first day didn't last too long...
I got a call from daycare at 11am saying she had a fever so I needed to pick her up. I knew it was going to be strep as soon as I hung up because Charles stayed home from his first day today because he had fever and Sam texted me saying he had strep. UGH!!
Poor Kayla has never had strep (me either - crossing my fingers that I don't get it). Took her to Sam's office and she threw up outside. Then Sam swabbed her for strep and said it was NEGATIVE - WOOHOO! But Dr. M came in and was like "yup it's strep." um...."Sam said it was NEGATIVE." Damnit. Oh well plus she has an ear infection. :( We can't ever leave the doctor's office without an ear infection.
So we came home and she rested for a bit - dosed her with some antibiotics & Tylenol and she's feeling a little better now. I got a nap in too - gotta stay ahead of the sickness (I WILL NOT GET SICK...I hope). We'll be staying home tomorrow (maybe Charles too). Sam & Jason had strep last month and I didn't get it so hopefully I'll be lucky this time too. Cross your fingers please.
