Oh to be Kaylin...

She's cute, right? I mean, she's got the pale skin, the blue eyes, the dark hair, the sweet voice, the ability to sing at the top of her lungs in a Dr's waiting room and Target, she says please and excuse me, she calls pizza "sepa", she calls herself Kay Kay da Kakers, she needs her owies kissed, and she takes great pleasure in defying her mommy. So, again, she's cute, right?

She gets into my stuff whenever she pleases. She covers herself in my expensive lotions and soaps from hair to toe. She draws all over herself with my lip liners, as she has done here...

She pouts and throws fits when things don't go her way. And she loves her "weg warmers"....

And she eats her great, great uncle's medications because she is convinced they are Skittles....

Tuesday we visited my great aunt and uncle. Uncle Leo is my grandma's brother. I love him so. He and my aunt have always been like grandparents to me. Tuesday my aunt told me that my uncle has been given 6 months to live. He's 94, he has cancer, and nothing can be done. He is 94 after all. While talking to my aunt, my darling Kaylin was ratted out by her big brother. Konner told me that Kaylin was eating uncle Leo's medicine.
Me - Kaylin, did you eat Uncle Leo's pills?
Kaylin - Yep
Me - Did you swallow the pills?
Kaylin - Yep

I followed her down the hall so she could show me what she had done and there were pills all over the floor. Smooshed, chopped, and whole pills. There was even a pool of saliva with 6 pills that she had spit out.

Me - Kaylin, what have you done?????
Kaylin - My eat em!
I freaked out and called my brother-in-law, who told me to call Poison Control, who told me to take her to ER. I took her to ER, which incidentally happened to be the hospital my brother-in-law works at. He got her back immediately, he laughed at me a bit, because well clearly I have the worst luck there is with children and hospitals! And they gave her Charcoal to drink. While waiting her blood pressure dropped a little and her heart rate went up a little but nothing too scary. They just put an IV in her until her blood pressure and heart rate went back to normal. They released her after 6 hours and she is all good. She saw her DR the next day and got a clean bill of health. And now she is her normal darling little self again.

She's back to defying me while grinning. She's back to tormenting her brother every chance she gets. She's back to those pouts and tantrums. So, yah, she's down right adorable!!
