Headed to Silver Dollar City

It gets harder every day to find activities that are fun for the kids but are affordable. A friend, Liz, takes her kids a couple times every month to SDC for a few hours of rides and fun, so today the kiddos and I are joining her. Our husbands are out of town so it's just us. Should be a fun new challenge. Hoping it is not too stressful. The kids will be off on naps and meals but should be worth it. Kyle went out of town Sunday for work and won't be back until next Thursday. Today is dy 7 of 12 he is gone and we already miss him like crazy. McKenna asks throughout the day, every day, if daddy is working and than says, "daddy coming home, it's okay." the second day Kyle was gone Keaton came into my room crying saying he couldn't find daddy anywhere. Now he is seeing daddy is just on a trip, but he has asked several times of we can go get on a plane with daddy. We will be excited when he gets home! McKenna is still slowly gaining weight but requiring 60% of her feeds by tube and 95% of water through tube. It is getting discouraging and frustrating. Just want our daughter healthy, interactive and well! Keaton is doing all better since his surgery. He hasn't snored in over a week and is starting to breath through his nose more. We saw the doctor Wednesday and Keaton got the go ahead to eat and drink whatver because the scabs fell off his tonsils. Woo hoo for chip time again. My favorite comments of his after surgery were, "my throat fell out." and when he would go to eat something he would comment that his tongue was too big to eat. Nothing ever translates as cute on paper but it was super adorable.
