Happy Halloween 2012

There were't many kids out this year, but we had fun none the less.

Visiting Yoo-Ma and Papa

I took the kids over to visit Mom and Dad today because the kids were out of school.  We had a great time.

Look alike?

We got dressed alike today and didn't even plan it.  Kinda crazy, I'm thinking...

Fall Ball 2012

Chris and I had a wonderful time at the Fall Ball this year.  I always get excited about it and Chris always, well, he deals with it. ;)

10 mile temple walk and Tallahassee

Kerstyn was dropped off at the Eustis building this morning at 6:30 to head down to do a 10 mile walk to the temple with the Young Women in the stake.  I was supposed to meet her about 3 miles out and walk the rest of the way in with her, but when I was on my way to the scheduled meeting place, she had already made it there.  So, I told her I would park at the temple and come to her. 

I got down there and parked at the temple then ran to her.  I cried on my way because I was passing girls that were walking and some running, to the temple.  I was running to Kerstyn and while I was running, I was thinking, I will do anything, just anything to save her and get her to the temple...  It was a beautiful day and a beautiful experience. 

Kerstyn was actually quite ill but would NOT miss the walk.  She was a trooper.

We hustled away from the temple because Chris got us a flight to Tallahassee that afternoon to see the football game and then for Kerstyn and I to attend the memorial service of Dr. Croft who was the Director of Bands at FSU while I was there.

We had a WONDERFUL weekend.

Not again

I took Aislinn to the doctor Wednesday.  She woke up Tuesday with a low grade fever and complaining of a headache.  Wednesday, she woke up with a fever again but was complaining of her ears hurting, so I thought she had an ear infection.  She did not have an ear infection, so Dr. Soto thought it was viral.  Well, she came home today with a fever of 103.6 and was not doing well.  I gave her Motrin immediately and she then told me, "I think that I need Daddy to give me a blessing. I'm not getting better."  Well, that sounded eerily familiar, so I called Chris who was heading back from hearings in Orlando.  I also called Dr. Soto's office who said they still thought it was viral but if I was concerned to go to After Hours Pediatrics since she seemed to be getting worse instead of better.  What was frustrating is that while I was sitting in the pediatrician's office with her, I felt prompted to ask for a urinalysis but I didn't do it because she didn't have the typical symptoms. 

I should have followed the spirit and asked because I ended up at Arnold Palmer's Emergency Room tonight and they immediately gave Aislinn some Tylenol just 2 hours after the Motrin because she still had a fever of 101.7.  After 3 hours, we went back and she does in fact have another UTI. 

Not.  Again.

Well, I called Dr. Rich, and we are getting another ultrasound done soon.  I'll keep you posted.
