Kyla gets her cast off....

On Tuesday August 18 we drove back up to Nemours children's hospital in Jacksonville to have Kyla's cast removed. Hard to believe that 4 weeks has come and gone. During the whole 4 weeks Kyla never complained...not even once. She was such a trooper!!
Here are a few pictures from that day:

The removal process seemed much scarier than what it really was. They take a "saw blade" and cut through the cast, then they break it open with this plyer looking tool and then they cut through the gauze. The saw blade was not sharp at all even though it looked that way and the tech even let us feel it to make sure. They gave Kyla some ear muffs so that it wouldn't be as loud or scary for her but she did great. I was so proud of her. She was a brave little girl!!

Sawing the cast in half. (not as painful as it looks)

Breaking it open.

Cutting through the gauze.

Kyla's arm fresh out of the cast.

She didn't know what to do with her arm and this is how she held it for the first few hours after her cast was removed.

She went for x-rays and they confirmed that her arm was completely healed and she was good to go. :)

Just a couple more pictures:

I caught Kyla looking at her reflection in the "room with the view" (it overlooked the river).

A few new pictures of Kam....

Just a few pictures of Kamden Max over the past few weeks. I love taking pictures of my little man (and the girls too). He is just getting so big so fast. I think the more kids you have the quicker they grow up. We are so blessed to have such beautiful and healthy babies.


Here is Kam snoozing in the swing sucking on his fingers....so sweet!!



Look how big Kam is. He weighed 16lbs @ 3 mons.



He is always gumming on his fingers.



Baby toes are my favorite. Aww....


Kamden right out of the bath. I love a clean baby!!



Lifting his head up for a picture...he is definitely my kinda kid. :)




This is my favorite picture of Kamden so far. I love it!!

Keaghan's 1st haircut...

We recently had Keaghan's hair trimmed first time on July 26th when she was 31 months old. Before this point there was never really a reason to cut it but her hair had finally reached the crazy unmanageable point so we broke down and had it trimmed. She wasn't so thrilled with the idea at first but she actually liked having it done.

This is what it looked like before she had it cut:

The hair cut:

Aww...look at that cute face. :)

All done.
Here is a picture of the girls after her haircut.
