An exciting weekend...and not all good excitment!

We had a bit of a roller coaster weekend, first Tracy called me on Friday afternoon and said that she was taking Catilyn to the hospital. Caitlyn had been sick for a week or so with the stomach flu and also a bad cold, and she wasn't getting any better. When Tracy took her back to the Dr. he told her to get her over to the emergency room asap. At the Strathmore Hospital they gave Caitlyn an inhaler to help her breathing, and then said they were going to give her an IV and send her to the Children's hospital in Calgary via ambulance, as she has pneumonia in her right lung. Well that freaked us out a bit, so Tracy went with Caitlyn, and I took Lexi into Mom's house and then met Tracy at the Children's. I'm actually glad they sent us to the Children's because the doctors there were very good. They checked Caitlyn's x-ray and checked her breathing and said she wasn't as bad as Strathmore thought. We think a lot of it had to do with the fact that Strathmore gave her some antibiotics which had kicked in by the time we got to the Children's. Anyway they sent us home with the inhaler and some more antibiotics and said to just watch her, and if she gets worse to bring her back. Well She was a completley different little girls on Saturday, she was happy and wanted to play, and was a lot better.

Saturday night we had a Chili Cook-Off and Hoedown at the Church, and I volutnteered Dad, Rena, Jeremy and I to play during the dinner portion. It was really fun we got to jam for about and hour while everyone ate, and then we got to eat and watch the rest of the program. Mom, Rachel and Rex, and Tara and Alissa came out, Tracy and Caitlyn stayed home just to be sure Caitlyn was getting over the sickness. We had a good time and the day ended off well.
