Sleep!

Well these sleepless nights and spending lots of time awake during the day being fussy has finally caught up with Zoey.  She slept really well all of last night aside from when the nurse woke her and she has been sleeping pretty much all day.  It's probably a combination of this infection at her incision site, all the vaccinations she got throughout the week making her sleepless and cranky, and possibly a growth spurt.  But it's nice to see her getting caught up on sleep and relaxing.  We've had LOTS of snuggle time today (and this weekend) since she's been wanting to try oral feeds or just to be held.



Zoey was sporting a Mohawk today since the T-hawks had their first game today.  She wanted to look like a tough cheerleader despite not being able to attend.  Our lack of attendance was ok though since we had lots of visitors.  First Jesse, Janine, and Kaden came to see her and then Niki and Justin (friends from high school) came with her parents, Ed and Margaret.  Zoey slept through most of the visits but it was nice for them to see her out of the isolette and without any tubes hanging on or around her face.

Zoey and I will cuddle a little more tonight before I have to go back to RMH to crash for the night.  Wishing this weekend won't end!
