Update on Ki

Kiana is finally feeling better. She has started wearing her glasses, but of course i can't find my camera at the moment and keep forgetting to take pictures with our i pod. She is talking more and more everyday and her speech is becoming more clear now.  She loves Chance and Erin from church and gets all excited when ever the door bell rings or some one knocks on the door saying "my Erin" and gets upset if it's not Erin at the door when i open it. She also loves to eat and will eat just about anything.

Sick baby

this past week has been hectic Kiana had a fever of 102 and was really miserable, and sleepy( the sleepy part i don't mind much, just the miserable part) The fever wouldn't go down no matter what we did. The fever started Sunday so on Monday i took her to see Dr. Glade and for once her ears were fine but her tonsils were swollen again. Tuesday she seemed to be doing a little better so i took her to brandy's house and went to work after dropping aelita off at school. After work on my way to school, brandy called and told me that Ki was starting to act sick again and that i needed to come pick her up(which just meant that my spring break at school started a bit early no big deal) from then on her fever would not go down below 101 even with piggybacking the children's Tylenol and Motrin so on Wednesday we spend the day at Provo instacare were Ki had blood drawn, a chest x-ray and a UA in order to check for pneumonia, a UTI and who knows why they took her blood she didn't seem to mind though. After all that we discover it is just tonsillitis which normally they don't treat but since she's had a fever that didn't go down even with medication they went ahead and gave her a shot of robaxin(i think) and now she's finally all better, although i really miss my cuddly baby.

update

Ok so i've been slacking on updating the girls blogs.
Kiana is doing well. She loves school and is talking more and more all the time. She also went to the eye doctors this month and found out that she has a stigmatizm in both eyes and will be wearing glasses. Today she had to get her MMR shot again because the stupid doc in Alabama didn't write a date on her record when they gave it to her the first time. I'm glad that she doesn't need anymore shots until she starts kindergarten. Kiana still has a short temper when she doesn't get what she wants when she wants it and loves go diego go and dora as well as chuggington. She is trying to say her abc's but it still comes out sounding like she is just repeating abc over and over again.  Kiana loves Nursery at church and the nursery leaders especially Erin.  She also really enjoys playing her preschool games on the ipod as well as playing with her trains and she'll occasionaly play with her babydoll that has jus been laying around for a really long time.

Kiana

Kiana is doing well. She started school in january and loves it. She was a little terrifed of the school bus at first but now she likes it. when i pick her up from the baby-sitters she always tells me i ride home bus mommy it's so cute and she is learning so much. i'm glad that we are were we have support from friends that love my girls as much as i do

December update for Ki

Kiana is doing well. She is on a gluten and casin free diet to try and help with some of the Autism behaviors and her life long diareahha issue. luckily it's been helping and its been almost 2 weeks since i've had to change a diarea diaper. Kiana will be starting school in january. She still has an ear infection and if it wasn't for her running a fever i would have never even known.  She has also started taking a little more since we've taken her off all milk and wheat products other than a few things that she manages to get into. She's still bad about hitting which we are now working on.

Quick Ki update

Ki has had two ear infections in 10 days so has been pretty miserable. She also has a cold and fever. Ki loves to play with trains and cars. We're still working on some of her behavioral issues due to her autism but lately since she's been sick she's mostly been sleeping so no issues there. She is now seeing the early intervention people every week and a therapist every two weeks. next month they will be trying to get her into a special education preschool at the girls elementary school.

Autism

Kiana is mildly autistic which i guess it's good that we found out now rather than when she's older and in school. She still isn't making eye contact with anyone and doesn't want to play with her sister or anyother children.  Kiana is also still throwing the worst tantrums and gets very violent. She is also always banging her head into whatever she can find. We have found things that Kiana likes to do however, she loves to string beads on elastic cord and play with trains and cars. Kiana is also still on her pacifier however now its just used as a chew toy and to keep her from chewing on clothes and other toys like her cars and everything else she can find. to find out more about autism check out http://www.autismspeaks.org/ or http://www.autism-society.org/ or you could just google it too.
