Moving on up

February 8, 2013
Hospital bed rest day 10
26 weeks 5 days

Wes and I are having an ever increasingly difficult time sleeping here. The room that we are in has double glass doors and a curtain that doesn't reach the ceiling or the floor so there is always light coming into the room from the hall way. We are also at the end of the ward so we are next to the double electric doors that go into the PACU. There are always people coming and going through those doors all hours of the day. I have been getting put on the monitors around 6am also so there is no hope of getting sleep.

Wes and I were trying to do some online shopping for Silas today since there is still so much that we have not gotten for him yet and it doesn't look like we will be able to get out to the stores before he is born. I thought it was hard to find preemie clothing when we had Kyra 4 1/2 years ago, I am having even more trouble this time. The preemie clothing that I can find is so expensive. How can they charge more for less material?!?!
We went into the gift shop while on my ride today to get Kyra's "I'm a big sister shirt" since it was way cheaper in there than online. I think she will really like it! I am super excited about it!
This afternoon my patient care aide came in and she said she was told she was the one who could share some good news with Wes and I. She goes on to tell us that the lady down the hall was getting to go home...well I am really happy for her but are you trying to rub it in? She then tells us that they are trying very hard to be able to move us down to that room since it has a real door and less foot traffic. I am beyond excited!! I really hope we are able to sleep better tonight than the past few days.
There are 2 windows in our new room and they are A LOT bigger so I am able to see out of them from the bed. We also have a really awesome rocking swivel chair that is super comfortable. I was able to sit in it for dinner tonight! It really is the little things in life right now!!
Cant wait till tomorrow to hopefully see my kids again. It has been a LONG week! They have not been able to get up to visit since Sunday last week. :-(
