A lot of fun yesterday

We started off the day bringing Sam to the Country Mile Day School for two hours. While he was there Kailyn and I cleaned together. We had to get ready because
the kids had a play date with their good friends the Warehams. There are four kids in the family, but only 3 come because the youngest is only two. So there were 2 six year old girls, 1 eight year old girl and 2 four year old boys here.(5 total) This was the first play date with people outside the family since Kailyn's diagnosis and it went really well. I only had to referee a little bit and there was no major damage done. We thought they might have ruined the heating system for a bit after we realized we had no heat this morning, but we figured out that they had flicked the heating switch by the stairs off. Kailyn and Isabelle even picked up her room without me asking.

We attempted a visit to Grammie's chickens in the wind and the rain, but ended up looking really quick and then coming back home because the wind was really strong. All I could think of was seeing 5 kids being blown across the field. That was an adventure that they thought was cool though.

Kailyn was extremely excited to show her friends how she pricked her finger and how she took her shots. She also bragged about how she got to have soda. She got to demonstrate that she was the only kid that got soda when she was low one time. She went low a couple of times because she was burning up so much energy and eating the same amount she usually does.

After the playdate they ate at 4 (they still have not turned back time) and then quickly called Grammie and Grampa to see if they could go over to see their Great Nana who was staying the night en route to New York for Thanksgiving. They had fun playing with her for about an hour.

They basically did not stop yesterday, but it was a huge success with no major dramatics. Kailyn still went to bed at 10pm because she worked on a magazine with pictures.(she has endless energy) Sam crashed a little before 8pm.
