“Are you gonna be brave,” they ask Jayde who cheerfully tells them yes.
“Why?” the 3-year-old, who was facing a procedure to help her breathing, asked. Her parents tried to explain the visit in positive terms.
“Cause they’re gonna give you some grape juice and then you get to take a nap,” Bookout, the mother of three, who just purchased a new home in Tennessee, told Jayde.
The TMOG star explained to her daughter how the procedure would end, saying: “And you’ll wake up and then they’ll give you a popsicle and then you get to come home.”
Jayde’s father, Taylor McKinney, told the little girl, “You’ll sleep better.”
“This will help you breathe better out of your nose and your mouth,” the dad assured his daughter.
Bookout had fans speculating that she was pregnant again after McKinney posted a photo of her with a suspicious baby bump.
She was called out for photoshopping a picture that seemed to cover up a bump as well.
