It's official: I do NOT like typing on an iPad.
Today's date is 08-10-12. These are the years I've had babies! (and not planning on another one for year 14, Lord willing).
So are you wondering how my amazing full night of sleep was? Well, it might have been nice, but at 5am my phone rang. WHA?!!? It was a nurse saying to come feed my baby. Long story short, some new patients had arrived and they changed nurses, and our nurse forgot to pass on the info that Adriah was supposed to get a bottle. Bah humbug. I gave the new nurse the instructions, no big deal. But I really don't like being woken up because it can be hard to go back to sleep. I was also frustrated because this was the second time I had left instructions to feed her that were not passed on to a new nurse (and the last time she totally missed a feeding because of it). It took me an hour to fall back to sleep. Arghhh...that's as long as its would have taken to feed her, but at least I got to lay there instead of getting my 5am workout of 3 stories of stairs. Going to try again tonight for the full night effect.
Simon came back up for the weekend. He brought the kids in this morning ... They have been getting to bed late because of VBS, so they're all a little edgy. But being away from them for a week gives me a renewed energy and determination at being their mom.
So tonight is the last night of our special hospital vacation! Adriah and I have had such a lovely time together, considering the circumstances. The thing I'll miss most is having my food brought to me at every meal. Speaking of food, I think I'll go have some soup I didn't eat at dinner.
Peace.

Vacation Bible School. Well known in the Christian mom society for making children not behave like Christ. :) Made me chuckle.
Hospital soup (generally) is horrible and requires 2 salt packets or 4 saltine cracker packets to make tasty. And at the same time, adding that much salt makes you cringe because it's got to be loaded already.
I'm sorry your nurses have problems communicating. Don't hate them too much- it can be difficult to remember the little things when you're busy passing on life-saving information.
Tell the kids I love them!
