What to do with Emersyn

Subtitle: It's raining vomit.

Poor Emersyn, I am not sure what to do with her anymore. We are having another bad episode where she can't keep any food or liquid down, it started on Tuesday and who knows when it is going to stop. I have tried all sorts of different foods and liquids, but without fail she will eat something and then usually within 10 minutes she has thrown it up. It has gotten to the point now that she is so hungry that she is just exhausted and sleeps a lot.

If anyone has any suggestions on what to give her I would be happy to hear them.

Another one bites the dust....the sequel

Marti got her cast removed last Wednesday and by Sunday we were back in the ER. Marti did a flip off Grandma's lap onto her head/shoulder and fractured her collarbone. Thankfully it doesn't require a cast, but she has to wear a sling for the next 3 weeks. I hope this is the last injury for the summer, she isn't going to be happy if she can't go swimming this year.

Speed Racer

Marti ran in her first race in Ogden a few weeks ago. I was so proud because she ran the whole time, not very fast, but she ran.

Another one bites the dust

Marti is officially my child. I thought for sure that Emersyn would be the first in a cast, she seems a lot more clumsy.

It was about 8:30 at night and Marti had just put on her princess pjs she was busy twirling like a princess when she fell. I knew as soon as she fell and looked up at me that she had broken her arm, there was just something about the look on her face. Kory and I took her to the ER where they did an x-ray and confirmed it was broken just past her wrist (luckily past her growth plate).

Marti was so good the whole time at the ER, didn't cry once, the only thing she was concerned about was getting a "poke" (a shot) so she told every orderly, nurse, x-ray tech and doctor she saw not to give her a poke.

P.S. Note the purple cast....obviously I didn't get a say in what color she picked.

Easter '09

I know Easter was a while ago....but I just downloaded the pictures off the camera. So, better late than never.

Treehouse Museum

We went with Auntie Trystal and the boys to the Treehouse Museum in Ogden. It's so fun to see the kids play together. Poor Nathan, being the oldest, probably doesn't think it's so great but he is a really good helper.

Favorite Mommy

This is a picture of Marti clutching Auntie Trystal's leg. Marti loves Auntie Trystal and would live with her if I let her. Marti was looking at some pictures of family on the fridge and she was pointing out who are her favorites. I asked Marti who her favorite mom was, expecting her to say "of course it is you dearest mommy" followed by a loving look and maybe a big hug. Instead she said, and I quote, "ummmm, I think I'll pick Auntie Trystal".
