Sick, flair ups and Ballet

Lilly got sick on August 24th with tonsillitis, it was really ruff on her and she was running very high fevers that would not go down very much with Motrin. Her pediatrician gave us some antibiotics and we talked about the documents he received from the oncologist, (all the doctors are trying to keep each other in the loop... ) But her pediatrician brought up his concern for her immune system not working well, it seems like it's become so much weaker. 

The last 3 days Lilly has had a flair up everday, by flair up I mean she is having major joint pain in her left knee and has become weak and sleepy. This is the most flair ups we have ever had so close together in one week time!

We have our up coming appointments with her pediatrician this week for a well check up for 4 year old (we missed it in July and August becuse she wasn't well or had other doctor visits),then we see the oncologist and Nerologist the end of this month.

In other news, home school my two kids is way more work then I expected!! Ugh!!

Logan is doing really well, he loves it and is learning so much. I am so glad we didn't put him back in public school!!

Lilly misses the school she loves in LA, Kids World School (I work for them from home), she dosnt want to go to any other school but that one... (Not that she can even go to school). But we do preschool from home, she is not a fan of standard teaching methods. All she ever wants to do is art, man she is an artist! So I have had to make all her lessons into an art project so she is learning the way she loves, through art! She does love music time too!

Lilly also started ballet classes, she was so excited that we finally let her do them, it's only an hour long and as long as the kids she is in class with look healthy I am willing to take the risk. She loved her first class, but was in a lot of pain with her legs and was worn out so much when she was done with the first class that she said she never wanted to go again. Lucky for me since I paid for classes until end of October she said a week later that she did want to go back. I think I will just have a little chat with her teacher and ask her to ask Lilly if she needs a break every once and awhile and maybe that will help. 

Oh she has also asked to start Gymnastics, she watched this movie last week when she needed rest... Click on the link below to see website and movie preview.. its a great movie!

An American Girl: McKenna Shoots for the Stars

This movie stars Jade Pettyjohn and Lilly was so fascinated by McKenna and all the amazing things she could do that she demanded that she just HAS to go to gymnastics!! 

She even said she wants to meet McKenna, I explained to her that it is a movie and the girl who plays McKenna is actually named Jade Pettyjohn, Lilly didn't get it at all, but she has big plans on meeting McKenna aka Jade and playing with her because she would just be so great, they can dance and sing and do gymnastics! 

I love the way my daughter thinks! 

But I just hope she dosnt find out that there is a McKenna doll.. That doll cost $500!!!
