Daddy's Girls

Isn't this the most adorable thing you've ever seen? 

Colt is such a tough guy, I love seeing him with his girls.

 Thanks to Gramma Jujee and my awesome cousin Kristie,

the girls were Snow White for Halloween.

 

Can you tell she practices her princess smile and pose?

 The actual night of trick or treat Mini wore this to stay warm. 

Thanks again Kristie

Emma and Jessica were our little super heroes at Grump and BG's Halloween party.

We must have walked 4 miles to trick or treat yesterday. 

We started at 5:30 and got home around 8.

I had to snag a picture of this because Emma was nervous to go up to the house alone and Colt didn't want to get startled by it. No one was home so no candy and lucky for the homeowners Colt didn't punch that dummy and break it. :) We were all so tired when we got home. Emma got way too much candy and I have to hide the over-piled bucket but we had such a good time. I loved it.

The week before Halloween we got to go to a carnival at the Jordan Child Development Center in Riverton. They had games and prizes at every door and tons of treats. We invited my sister Sabrina and little David and Gramma Ronda. It was so fun. Emma loved getting prizes and she is actually really good at tossing bean bags and rings. We got homemade rootbeer and everyone's favorite cotton candy. We even saw Katie's occupational therapist Brett there with his cute wife and 2 boys. Love his costume don't you.

Little David. He just turned 1 can you believe it! He was walking all over the place.

It's been a good couple of weeks. We got approval for Katie to get her corrective helmet and we are waiting for the paperwork to finalize so she can get her RSV shot. We saw Dr Kestle her neurosurgeon last week and he went over the MRI with me. He said that Katelyn has a fatty spinal cord and that it is low in her back. He also said that there seemed to be fluid surrounding the tip which suggests that it is under tension. He recommended we do surgery to repair it so that when she starts to learn to crawl and walk it won't interfere with her development. He showed me the spot in her brain where the PVL is and explained that each child is effected differently but he is hopeful for Katelyn. We are scheduled to go to Primary Childrens Hospital on November 8th so Katie can have surgery. The surgery should take about 2 hours and she'll have to stay overnight a couple nights for observation. I am scared and worried more than I can express. To top it all off we are trying to get things together to move back into our house for the winter.

I am stressed. 

It's a good thing I have such a great support system surrounding me. 

I love my little family.
