Living Treasures





This past Monday Karla and I went to Living Treasures with some friends who have also adopted from Guatemala. There were 3 moms and 4 adorable children. I had debated about going since Karla continued to not feel her best but decided a fun trip out might be a good idea for both of us. Karla had fun. She wanted to ride in her stroller at first even though the other kids were walking around to see and feed all of the animals. She got out about half way through and joined in so that was good.

We ended up going back to the doctor on Tuesday (it had only been 6 days since we'd last seen him) and Karla had another sinus infection. So antibiotics started again....less than a month after the last round. I'm trying not to be too stressed about her health but it is hard! I don't like seeing her not want to run, keep up with the other kids, and scoot around the neighborhood on her scooter.

Anyway, we stayed for quite a while at Living Treasures. We got to feed and pet the animals. We celebrated two of the kids birthdays during lunch. The other 2 girls were turning 3. All the kids got cupcakes so they LOVED that. Then we went on a wagon ride through an area where the animals "run free." For some reason this was Karla's favorite part! She really perked up and talked more to everyone.

The kids loved the "horse" swings. We spent quite a bit of time pushing them. It was perfect because there were 4 kids and 4 swings.
