It is hard to believe that it has been over a month since I last posted pictures. I am so sorry! So much has happened! First Kaycee got a clean bill of health from both her surgeon & cardiologist. We went to appointment at both offices, and after several x-rays & ultrasounds, then concluded that the surgery was a success, and she is completely repaired with no restrictions on her life. We go back to the Cardilogist the end of August for another x-ray & unltrasound. They want to make sure that everything looks good. Then assuming everything looks good, she will have another appointment next May, and that will be it. This has been such an amazing experience. Kaycee can not ride her bike or scooter until the end of June, which will be when the bone is completely heeled - she really misses her scooter. Kaycee has gained 7lbs since we got home on March 12th, and her feet have gone from a size 7 to a size 10 - I am so glad that I saved Emilee's old shoes!! The doctors also gave her the ok to go to daycare. On Friday May 21st, Emilee had her last day of 1st grade, which is the picture of Emilee & Kaycee walking together. Everyday while I was on my leave from work, Kaycee & I would take Emilee to school, and then pick her up at the end of the day. We went to Texas Memorial Day weekend for a relaxing weekend. We played in the pool most of the weekend. Kaycee & Emilee both love the water. We made trip to theranch while we were in Texas, Kaycee does not seem to be as taken to horses as Emilee is, Kaycee complained of the heat and smell, and wanted to know when we were leaving. Then on Tuesday, both Emilee & Kaycee went to school at Dinosaur Den, and I went back to work. Dinosaur Den is where Emilee went for her before & after school care while I was working, and they have a special summer program for school age kids. Kaycee is in the Pre-K class. The first week was pretty rough for Kaycee, each day got progressively worse, until on Friday she was crying before we even left the house. So that was a rough week for all of us, even Emilee who could here Kaycee crying in her class room. But something magical happened that next Monday - she was excited to get to school! There were a few tears in the morning, and by Wednesday there were no tears at all! Now Kaycee loves school and knows that I will "always come back" to get her. She is the social butterfly in the class, loves circle time, and enjoys having so many new friends. Kaycee talks ALL the time, so she has a tough time keeping quiet during circle time, we are working on that. The best part is that she is sooo excited to see us everyday when I pick her up. since Kaycee weighs 40lbs now, we graduated to a booster seat in the car -she having a seat like Emilee's. We have been going to the pool a lot this summer, both girls enjoy it - but they are so exhausted by then end of the weekend. In May, Kaycee got her first hair cut - she was nervious at first, but then really enjoyed it. We are trying to get all of her hair the same length, she wants long hair like Emilee, so they can both out a ponytail in the back of their heads. Emilee has lost both of her front teeth, so Kaycee is convinced that she has 4 loose tooth - eeks, I hope not!
