Our First Hump Day

Today was another day back at CM with Greyson. We got there before the first feeding of the day so he was able to breastfeed instead of bottle. He has enough milk stored up now that hopefully he won't have to have formula. He is not big on the flavor and he usually spits it up some any way.

At rounds this morning we found out that our insurance company is pushing the doctors to figure out something to do and do it or discharge us. We are waiting around on one service, Radiology, to figure their suggestions before the team meets to come up with a final plan for us to decide on. AHHH just what we need is insurance sticking their nose in....or maybe that will get Radiology to do what they are supposed to do.

I had my follow up appointment with the OB and got the staples out. No issues, they just told me to take it easy and take care of myself. Guess Michael will still have to push me around in the wheel chair down the LONG hallways to get to the NICU.

We had a few visitors this afternoon and it made the day fly -
Rachel came by with a poster for Greyson's "condo" with his name on it. I asked if she might make something since she has picked up a little scrap-booking as a hobby. It is VERY cute (Thanks Rach).
Jonas stopped in for a bit after the afternoon feeding. We shared stories about Greyson and he shared stories about Mia.

Brandy came by and we played around with him even more. She fixed his hair (fauxhalk) and had a bit of a photo-shoot (see Gallery). Can't wait for Hank and Greyson to meet.

Gramps (my dad) and Grandma B (Becki) also stopped in for a visit. We sat in "Diner" and had dinner during the 7-8pm shift change. They visited Greyson for a while and then headed home.
At the end of the day today we asked Emily (day nurse) if we might move to a "condo" with a view (an open slot by the windows). The area is a bit bigger and we will be more comfortable for sure. Hopefully the night nurse Kelly will get us settled there before morning.

Better get going - falling asleep as I type. Everyone have a wonderful day tomorrow. We will have lots of visitors again and hopefully Radiology will come by for their consult.

Better go, the storm has set in. Love you all,
Brooke (and Michael)
