Korissa's Magical MAW/GKTW PTR....4 HUGE Big Give (2-18-11)..page 40

Now I feel bad. Please tell her it will get much love and use out of this dress. We have a Starlight Gala to go to after we get back and I think she will be wearing the Small World dress to it.
I think the strap will be fine. She will be wearing a shirt under it too. Did your Granddaughter wear a T-shirt under and what color? Hopefully we will be wearing short sleeves.
I will be on the look out today
Thank you

Oh no, please don't feel bad, I thought it was kind of cute actually. She is totally over it now!! She didn't even have the dress at her house, I still had it and she never would have even thought of it if I hadn't brought it up.

My granddaughter just wore a short sleeve white tee under it:

Your Granddaughter is such a cutie pie. I will have to show Kylee the little girl that gave her the dress when she gets home.
I have 2 white shirts, so that will do.

Does anyone watch the show The Doctors? If you watched todays show.. Dr Boles is Korissa and Kylee's Mito(geneticist) doctor.

Here is a small clip.. Chandra Wilson was talking about her daughter who has cyclic vomiting Syndrome...CVS is one on the symtoms(out of many) with patients with Mito

This one was from Ellen. Can I say how wonderful Ellen is. She told me she was going to make Kylee a backpack. Not only did she do 1 backpack, but she did 3 awesome, gorgeous, creative backpacks. I think all our mouths dropped when Kylee opened this. Ellen...I don't know what to say. Kylee just loved each and everyone. Thank you for doing these.

Cinderella..with all Princesses

Humpalump

The Princesses one would of looked good with her dress she wore today.

Thank you Ellen

Steven had his Orthopedic appt. yesterday. Thankfully his curve in his spine isn't all that bad. She did warn us that he is still growing and it can get worse so we need to stay on top of it. What she doesn't under stand is why his shoulders and shoulder blades are so uneven with the minimal curve.
Why he is having all his back pains and leg pains is because his hamstrings under his knee and ankle are soo tight. When he is growing they are getting even tighter. So now he will be going to physical therapy to hopefully stretch the hamsprings.

Oh...and Korissa is getting sick again.

Poor Steven, DH has really tight hamstring muscles and if he doesn't do his stretches his lower back really starts hurting. And Korissa... I hope you feel better. Your trip is only a few weeks away.

WOW to all your gifts. Ellen did an awesome job and I can't believe those backpacks.

 

[Mom2Miracles]

What wonderful Big Gives. Love the backpacks, what a GREAT job she did!!

 

[ellenbenny]

So glad Kylee likes the backpacks! I really hope they will end up being comfortable enough to wear for a full day. I am sure the straps are not as comfy as a store bought one, but they sure look cute on her. Maybe they will need some extra padding somehow.

Now she should have something to match all her outfits for the trip anyway.

Hope Korissa gets to feeling better quickly! Good news that Steven's back is better than originally thought, hopefully PT will fix him up without any surgery needed.

Hope you guys have an awesome trip, it is coming up quick.

Love all the other gifts you've been getting, everyone will be stylin'!

 

[mommy2mrb]

okay, loving the backpacks they are perfect and so dang cute!! Great Job Ellen!!!!

The thing shirts are great too!

 

[brookerene]

As always I love the thing shirts and the bakpacks are great! Ellen did an awesome job! The Heffalump one is so cute and so are the others! Wow! it is a Big Give Christmas over there in CA!

 

[that's nice]

mommy2mrb, That's wonderful that you are surprising your daughter with Discovery Cove on your trip! Are you both doing the dolphin swim package? Hopefully Kris will be able to share her family's experience there before you leave for yours!

Love the backpacks that Ellen made for Kylee! They look like a perfect fit for her.

The Thing shirts for the older girls are also wonderful. Great big gives!
