Help.. anyone??

This past weekend I took the kids accross the street for ice cream. Everything was fine until we got home. AMy started to freak out and cry and was on the floor yelling that she had to pee and then she started to pee. She pissed all over her pants. Her pants werent just a bit wet.. they were soaked from the waste to her feet, there was a huge puddle in my living room and all the way down the hall in the bathroom and then she sat on the toilet and peed some more. I was so mad. I asked her why she didnt go before we went to get ice cream. She sais she didnt know she had to go. Well with the amount that she peed how could she not feel like she had to go??? Unless she doesnt have the sensation until its the last minute and its too late??

Amy has had issues with going to the bathroom since I started to potty train her. It has not been easy. I chalked it up to her being lazy and just not wanting to "miss out" on any fun. But there are times when I randomly put her on the toilet.. she argues that she doesn't have to go then pisses like a race horse.

I have been looking on the Internet to see if I can find anything about lack of sensation to urinate in children. I have found a few things and they lead to bladder infections. She has had one in the past. I will be taking her to the doctor to get tested. I will probably try tomorrow. I can't go today. There is a walk in across the street if they cant take her then I will call her doctor. The only thing with him he is in his office only 3 times a week and at certain times. Very inconvenient.

Any ideas?? Help!

Tomorrow night we head to Canadian Idol for the live show! I cant tell you how excited I am. Actually we all are excited. We headed to the dollar store today and bought some poster paper, some markers and some glitter glue and the kids are making the signs right now. I will take pictures of them holding the signs.
Kelsey has been here since last Thursday and we have been on the go ever since. We went to Canada's Wonderland yesterday from 945am to 10pm! OMG.. we were all dead by the time we got home. I got burnt on my arms and chest, but we had a good time.
George took Kelsey and the kids up the CN Tower today while I was at work and then took them to Much Music. So they had a bit of a busy day.
Let me tell you I love having her here. She is so good.. polite and just all around nice kid!!
Pictures to come soon!!

She's here!!

So Kelsey is FINALLY here!! She came in last night and we are so glad to see her. After the airport we went downtown to show her the CN Tower and went and grabbed a bite to eat. It was a late night by the time we got home but we had a good first night.

Every once in a while Amy would say "Hi Kelthsy" and she would giggle and say "hi" right back. It was cute.

Jarret was very shy with her. He didn't say too much and wouldn't look her in the eye for the first hour or so.. lol. Then at the restaurant he warmed up and they were talking and the three of them were playing.. so cute.

George is off today... I think the plan is they will go to Canada's Wonderland for the water park while I am at work.. then tomorrow we will all go back and hit some rides. George is excited to have a roller coaster buddy. Jarret can only go on so many because of his size.

Everyone is still sleeping, I am up because I have to make Char's famous Taco Dip for a potluck for work today. I bought the ingredients last night at 12:30.. talk about last minutes.. lol.

My mom sent a bunch of clothes for the kids.. as she puts it she "Hit the jackpot". Superstore was clearing out the kids summer section everything $1.98!! Thank goodness Kelsey has a big suitcase!!! THANKS MOM!!!

Also thanks Char for my candle holders!! They are really pretty!!! Cant wait to get them on the wall..

I will be back this weekend hopefully with some pictures.

Quick post.

So there are 3 more sleeps and 4 more days until Miss Kelsey is going to be here. Very excited. George has a few days off when she is here which will be nice.

We managed to get tickets for Canadian Idol when she is here so that should totally ROCK!! I am hoping we can make a few signs and maybe get on TV. There are a few things planned but mostly cant wait to spend time with her. I know my kids are crapping them selves.

The past week/weekend was pretty quiet. George worked late and all weekend. Feels like I haven't seen him in ages. The Steelback Grand Prix was here so he was busy setting up and had to be there all weekend. It will be nice to have him home again. Its funny.. since its just me and him out here I didn't realize how much I rely on him for company.. I was pretty lonely. Well.. that all should change after today. Things should be back to "normal"

Well.. I am off to work in a bit.. not wanting to go. I have something I have to deal with when I get there that I don't really want to.. grr.

Happy Birthday


HAPPY CANADA DAY

Canada is 140 years old today. To celebrate the family and I are going to Canada's Wonderland. We will be going on rides eating food that will probably make us puke after going on the rides and then at night there is a fireworks show. Should be a fun and long day. The kids are already getting on each others nerves and they have been up for 5 minutes. Wish me luck!!

I have a bit of a migraine today. It started last night and I hope the 4 codeine pills I took last night will kick in sometime today!

Have a great day everyone.. I will be posting pictures tomorrow.
