DON'T PANIC!!

Aunt Stephie has a messy house right now so there's lots of obstacles to daily living.  One of which is a bathroom with no door.  Yesterday we were all up there helping when Laiky had to go potty.  KayeLeigh comes running into the living room yelling "laiky's in the potty laiky's in the potty don't go to the bathroom" and then she stops in the middle, puts her hands up and says "everybody stay calm!!" as serious as a heart attack. 

shot

Well we had to go yesterday to get the Hepatitis A shot...it's required in Oklahoma but not Arkansas so that wasn't one she got in her regular visits.  I left work at 2 and picked her up from school, she was so excited. She knew she was going to the doctor.  She told one of the teacher aides that she was going to the doctor to show him how strong she was (and of course does the muscle pose).  The whole way there she wanted to be there already. 

When we got there we waited a few minutes and then went right on back.  I put her in my lap because the shot was going to be given in her thigh.   I held her arms and the nurse wiped her leg with alcohol.  KK is calm.  The nurse fans it to dry it.  KK is calm.  Then she strikes!!  The needles goes in and KK whines an "owwwwwww" but no tears.  The nurse pulls the needle out and puts a bandaid on it.  KK never cried.

However, when the nurse was walking out KK looked at me and said "Mama...why that girl poke me?" 

I tried to take a picture of her when we got home but...

she had places to go!!

ar-teesta

Lil Miss KK loves to paint. 

We've painted signs for her teacher

and for Aunt Tisha

We work on her hand/eye coordination, learning colors and of course encouraging that artistic talent hoping she takes after her mama!!  :)

skiobite

On the way to take KK to school this morning I told her my side was hurting. She said "why?" I said "I'm not sure" and she said "maybe you have a skiobite"   I said "a skiobite?" she said "yeah a skio bit you"  I said "nope it's not a mosquito bite" she said "well maybe you hafta go to the dock-uh-tur" I said "nah I think I'm ok, I don't need to go to the doctor"  she said "but the dock-uh-tur is nice. He helps you.  He will make you feel all better"   I said "ok then, if I'm still hurting later I'll call the doctor"  :)   

witch broom

KK was playing with the broom and said "mama, get on my witch broom" I said "no I don't want to get on there right now, I want to rest" she said "but mama, it will take you home faster" I said "but I am home" she said "no you're in jealousy.  get on the back of my witch broom"

The broken shoe

A few weeks ago we had a cookout at the house for Jerid's birthday.  All the kids were playing in the playroom.  Then one by one they begin to come out for snacks.  We were all sitting at the table and KK was in my lap.  Laikyn comes out and walks very solemnly to her mama and whispers something.  She tells her to tell me and she whispers "I broke KK's shoe"  I said "well it's ok baby it was an accident."  then we see the shoe...it was broken in half!  When KK saw it she said "oh my goodness how did it break like that?"  just as grown up as could be :)

I HAVE JESUS!!

So I decided to set up a blog...to share all of KayeLeigh's cute stories...

Yesterday a little after 4 Jerid calls me… “your daughter is throwing a fit, she left her puppy at school” ok…here’s the story…a while back I got her a puppy from Life Way that has a ribbon around its neck that says jesus loves me. Its sat in her room, she never played with it. Two nights ago I had him up on her bed and told her all her stuffed animals would cry if she didn’t sleep in there with them. I picked them up one by one and when we get to that dog she hugs him. ok yesterday morning she decides she wants to take him to school. plays all day, goes to extended care, daddy gets her and they get in the car and apparently she realizes the dog is missing. She’s bawling squalling kicking the chair the whole bit. So he calls me. Puts me on speakerphone so I can calm her down.




Me… baby what’s wrong?
<Cry>
Me… KayeLeigh…stop crying and tell me what’s wrong.
<Cry and cry >
...This goes on for a little bit...
Me…baby calm down
KK…I lost my dog at school
Me you left him there?
KK uh huh
Me…he’ll be ok, we’ll get him tomorrow
(the biggest cry you’ve ever heard) I LEFT JESUS AT SCHOOL

So I proceed to calm her down and tell her we have other stuffed animals, he’s in her cubby all safe and warm and she can get him first thing. She’s still crying and “no I want Jesus” and I said “are you sure he’s not in your backpack?” she said “no?” and then I hear the backpack shuffling and then there’s a squeal and she said “I have him!! I HAVE JESUS”

Later last night I took a picture of her with Jesus...
