ER visit

Well this weekend Kiana had to go to the ER and get stitches. Apparently she was climbing up the ladder on the bunk beds and went to jump off of the ladder to my bed and miss calculated and cut behind her ear. She cried when it happened, but got hysterical when I said that she needed to go to the hospital. She got so upset about having to go to the hospital that she ended up with a bloody nose as well, so needless to say, by the time we finally got to the ER she was covered in blood and most of it was actually from her nose and not her ear. Anyway, when we got there she refused to put on the hospital bracelet. When it was time to get the stitches she actually did quite well. she cried a little bit when they gave her the lidocaine shot, but after that she actually fell asleep while they were putting in the stitches.

Trip to Va. Beach

This past weekend we went down to Virginia beach to see uncle zach. Kiana had lots fun swimming in the hotel pool. she also loved seeing her uncle zach. While we were there the girls were running around in and out of the hotel door and kiana managed to slam her arm in the door. Luckily it was just bruised and not broken. over all it was an alright weekend. Kiana had a lot of fun spending time with zach.

last week of school

this week is kiana's last week of school. she has really enjoyed being in school this year and even when i have asked her if she wanted to stay home or go to school, she's always wanted to go to school. She is doing better using the potty and we are working on her abc's and other educational stuff. Her teachers have given her two books, a beach bucket, a hat, bubbles, and a little beach ball as an end of year treat. friday they are having a little party for their last day of school.

update on monkey.

Kiana is doing very well. In January she turned 5 and had a great birthday. In march I signed her up for Tae Kwon Do and she loves it. She is doing very well in the classes that she goes to. She is also finishing up her final year in preschool @ mutual elementary  and getting ready to start kindergarten in the fall @ st.Leonard  elementary. She loves school and playing out side.  Kiana also loves to sing and play in the bathtub forever. She is growing up so fast and is such a joy to have in the family. I will post b-day and taekwondo pics later.

Christmas 2012

Kiana had a great Christmas this year. She got to spend time with her Aunt Rachael and uncle Noah as well as Uncles Eddie and Zach. She also got lots of presents this year. She got an Ice Age puzzle, hungry, hungry hippo game, a couple new trains from chuggington, and a laundry matching game from Kelli. She also got a Cars Guitar. Over all she had a great Christmas and loves playing with her new toys. She also loved getting new books for her tag system which reads to her.

My Monkey

Kiana is doing great, we have discovered that she is missing her corpus colosseum, but it really doesn't seem to be affecting her to much. The developmental pediatrician wants her to see a geneticist as well as a speech/language therapist. In other news Kiana loves to sing and can remember a song that she listens to forever, for example she hasn't heard the song Tomorrow from Annie is like almost a year and she sings it every day on the bus coming home. she loves to play with her blocks and doll house, even though currently we don't have the furniture for her doll house at the moment.

It's been awhile

Sorry it's been so long since I've updated Kiana's blog.

Kiana is doing great. She loves going to school and riding the school bus. Kiana loves playing with the dogs especially Louie our little pit puppy. We are still working on getting her potty trained, but we'll get it eventually. Kiana is an amazing girl and i love being her mom. The 24th of this month we have an appointment with a developmental pediatrician so we will see what he says and what he thinks will work to get her potty trained.
