Spoke too soon!

So apparently I spoke too soon. As soon as I posted our last post the entire Team McKenna got some crazy stomach flu. We have all had our fair share of vomitting and diarrhea (sorry if that is TMI for some of you). I think now we are finally feeling better after a few days of quarantine. Loganne continues to have some diarrhea but hopefully that will stop real soon. Mommy still has lots of laundry and cleaning to do and then I think we will be back to life! Hope everyone out there has been able to avoid this sickness thing this season! Hope all is well!

And we're back...kinda

Well after some weeks of one, some or all of us being sick we are finally feeling better. So we are back to our usual fun routine of aquarium visits, dance , gymnastics and other fun events with friends. The only thing lingering now is some vomiting from Loganne. Besides the actual throw-up though you would never know that the poor girl was sick. She continues to play, smile and be happy. She is so sweet but she is a tough kid. Daddy is so proud!

In recent weeks the most fun thing about Team McKenna has been watching the girls' relationship grow and become something really special. Kaleigh still calls Loganne by her name but now she also calls her "best friend". It truly warms my heart and at times brings tears to my eyes to watch them play and already care so much about one another. Kaleigh is so tender and at times very rough when loving her sister. You would think the wrestle type love would bother Loganne but all she does is laugh uncontrollably. She loves it! The Bit just wants to be with Kaleigh all the time. She gets quite frustrated when Kaleigh has friends over and she just can't keep up on her hands and knees. I think walking might be in her near future just so she can play with the big kids.

Sick...boohoo

Well Team McKenna have been in a quarantine situation thanks to the kids being sick. I am happy to report that Kaleigh is feeling much better but Loganne continues to suffer from congestion, a runny nose and coughing not to mention the 4 teeth that are arriving as well. Although life was slowed down for us both kids have been super tough throughout the whole thing. Anyone looking at our smiling, happy Loganne would not believe how sick she really is. Now if our sleeping schedule could get back to normal we would be good to go!

Memories like the corner or whatever it is....

Anyway I was looking through our photos today because it is so easy to do on an iMac and came across some pics of our friends the Hagers and while I was doing so Sarah called me.  So here's to friends who may live far away but are very missed.  Thank you for the good times in the past and more in the future!  Miss you all very much!  Sorry I didn't have pics of all of you friends that are so dear to us!

Happy New Year

Well the McKennas had an uneventful New Year's Eve and pathetically did not even make it until midnight. When did we get so old? However New Year's Day was spent with some good friends (the Eggers our wonderful neighbors and Jac O from the ship), a delicious meal made by dad and beautiful weather that allowed for some more bike riding! Hope you all had a terrific week celebrating the beginning of 2009! Happy New Year eveyone!
