This morning at 6:00 we had a little accident in our bed. Okay, a big accident.
Here she is today all cleaned up and looking...well, not very happy, but very cute.

Bili Blanket and First Bath
Kaitlyn is plugged in to the wall. Her jaundice levels keep going up and down. The bili blanket looks like a mini heating pad with bright blue mini lightbulbs in it (at night she glows from her back). We use this blanket for a day, have her blood checked (prick to her heel), take it off for a day, have her blood checked, and repeat. She has has 5 pricks on her heels - poor kid! Right now she is off of the blanket, and we'll find out tomorrow whether she is doing better or whether she has to be on the blanket again (it costs $100 a day to rent, $20 after insurance thank goodness).
Yes, I look tired. Yes, my stomach still looks like I'm 6 1/2 months pregnant. No, I don't care.
Ethan & Aidan's Thoughts
Baby Kaitlyn is so silly. And she always poops. I like to keep my hand over her eyes so it isn't too bright for her. She's cute. It's good that she is in our family.
Love, Aidan
Baby Kaitlyn is so cute. I've holded her a lot and she is really fun. She sleeps a lot, she eats a lot, she toots a lot, and poops a lot. That's pretty much what babies do. Her eyes are so pretty. I like them a lot.
Love, Ethan

The Squirrels
(Aidan used a trowel he bought at the dollar store to dig some holes and put some dirt in between the rocks too. Then he asked me to write these signs, and he put tape on them and taped them to the rocks. This is what the signs say:)
Dear squirrels, Please don't knock down this hole. It helps you stay in there. Please just don't knock it down. It keeps you safe from animals, like ants, and from creatures that climb. Aidan.
Dear squirrels, Please don't knock down the holes because it keeps you safe. That's why I builded it. Stay in there for the rest of your life. Aidan.

Soccer Trophy
I played soccer today. It was fun! I got a trophy. 
It was my last soccer game. I liked that game. I scored a goal, my first goal ever! When I scored my first goal, everybody was like, "Good job!" I felt good because I got the trophy and I played hard.

The Killer Whale Report
Everybody in the class had to do a report, and mine was today. I liked it. Everybody thought theirs was the best. Funny, huh! My poster was light blue, and the food chain means that killer whales can eat everything on the food chain, and killer whales cannot be eaten so they are on the top.
Love, Ethan
(his report)
Killer Whales
They are also called Orcas.
They are mammals like we are. They are the largest of all dolphins.
They can grow to be 28 feet long and weigh 12 thousand pounds. But the largest killer whale ever was 32 feet long and weighed 22 thousand pounds.
A baby orca is called a calf. When the calf is born, he weighs 400 pounds. They can live as long as 90 years!
They usually swim 3 to 4 miles an hour, but they can swim up to 45 miles per hour.
They live in every ocean in the world.
They can eat 500 pounds of food every day.
What do you think they eat? Name a couple of underwater animals.
They eat fish, squid, penguins, seals, sea lions, dolphins and walruses. They are at the top of the food chain.
Killer whales have 45 teeth and each one is about three inches long.
They have a blowhole. They have to come up to the surface of the water to breathe.
They are black and white because it helps camouflage them in the water. Animals have a hard time seeing them.
Killer whales live in pods. Pods are like families. Most pods are led by females. They travel and hunt together in their pod.
Some killer whales are famous. One was in a movie called Free Willie. You can also see them at Sea World.
