A Long Saturday

We had a few visitors today around lunch time. Don came to say hey and brought me a much needed Starbuck's latte. Brandy and Kirk came by so she could love on Greyson now that he is out of the NICU and Gramps and Grandma B came all the way from Fort Scott for a short visit but they each had the chance to hold him before the nurse brought in the bili-lights and we had to put him down. The funniest thing was that I think he slept through all the visits and wasn't very entertaining. It's so funny, when he is out he's out, but when he is awake he is very alert.

The afternoon proved that Greyson HATES the bili-lights but mostly the mask he has to wear when he is under them. It is very hard to console him when he gets mad so I hope this fixes the problem and we can get rid of them and get to go home. They are going to check his levels first thing in the morning and then again in the afternoon before deciding if we can go home. Not going to jinks anything so no more updates before we find out for sure. While Greyson and I were fighting the lights Michael was fighting the dirty clothes. The Ronald McDonald house room here in the hospital had a washer and dryer there so he spent most of the day running laundry and he even got to have dinner provided by the volunteers.

Hope you all are having a great weekend even with the weather. Hoping for sunnier days.
