Saturday afternoon Written Jan 12, 2013 2:46pm

Jesse, Janine, kaden, Krista & I went over to the NICU after their arrival & visiting for awhile with Sally. JJKAR got Zoey an adorable assortment of gifts of a couple hats & a giraffe binky thingy, (guy speak), & a couple of books, which I'll be reading to her as she'll hopefully get my reading skills, as we know how much Sally likes to read! I brought her binky & one of the hats over to the NICU in a hopeful effort that she'd be able to have them in her room. The hat was so grossly too big even for normal preemie babies it again reinforced the fragile situation. The nurse allowed me to put her binky in with her inside her tube right next to her so she'll be able to sleep with it & have her very first "blankey." Made me cry, how fast my perspective has changed in 96 hours. I was excited about getting a charging port for my PS3 on Monday. Now I'm scrambling to wrap my head around her eventually coming home & dolls, stuffed animals, & whatever the heck else little girls like! We got back to Methodist & everyone visited with Sally a bit longer after she had showered & got into normal clothes for the first time in nearly a week. She's getting closer to not being so bloated & feeling way better, with the exception of the cut obviously. JJK & K went to grab Toppers for us for a late lunch so Sally could have some non-hospital food. Unfortunate that the best meal so far has been a grilled cheese sandwich, there's no way I would've made it through the food let alone everything Sally has went through. What a rock star.
