Last Week

Last week was a tough week for us! We had to prep for Kaitlyn's colonoscopy and endoscopy. Monday night Kaitlyn slept over at Grandma Young's house for a special date night. It helped to distract her that Tuesday morning she would have to start the colonoscopy prep. Cam and I were very excited to have a special night home with Colin! He was beaming and so excited to have mommy and daddy to himself! Here is Colin and Daddy playing Mario Cart on the Wii.

We read lots of books too!

Tuesday morning we went to pick up Kaitlyn at 8am since thats when she had to start the prep. I had to make 2 boxes of jello with Magnesium Citrate(a laxative). She had to eat one box of Jell at 8am and one at 5pm. Then she had to swallow, like an adult, laxative pills at noon and 8pm. What an ordeal it was:( Plus all she could eat was Jello and popsicles...lets just say that she wont ever eat Jello again! Look at our fridge!!!

We spent the day at home doing fun things to try and keep Kaitlyn's mind off of everything. In between bathroom breaks of course..poor thing!! They loved this Play Doh dentist kit! It came with a real working drill too!

Kaitlyn was pulling teeth!

Kaitlyn was watching Colin play his Leapster. She was in really good spirits and we were proud of her for being tough and making it through a difficult day!

The kids took showers and then Auntie Kelly came to pick up Colin. It was his turn to sleep at Grandma's house for his special night. Cam and I enjoyed our night at home with Kaitlyn too. We played dentist all night!!
