We are winding down day number three at the hospital. Alex and Andrew came up here again tonight and I took them out for dinner so Pat could have a little bit of a break and gave me a chance to hang out with them. They were pretty excited to see Caroline again. She was a little more awake this time and Andrew was very excited that he got to touch her.
Last night wasn’t bad either. We only had two feeding sessions during the night and we managed to get some sleep. When I woke up this morning I actually felt pretty good and thought, “hey, this isn’t too bad. I can handle this.” when I realized it was just after 8:30 in the morning. Once we leave the hospital I’m going to have to have to the boys off to school and be at work before 8:30 so things are going to change.
Our nurse last night was the best we’ve had but when she first came in I was totally freaked out because she sounded exactly like Kathy Bates character Annie Wilkes from Misery. She was telling us something and all I could think about was her leaning of James Caan holding the big hammer getting ready to crush his ankles. Like I said, we made it through the night ok, ankles in one piece.
Soooo creepy!!!
