Ava and I had baths and got ready at the hotel. The first thing she says when she wakes up is "I go back to hospital?" She loves being with her brother! So we got over there around 9:30 and then the kids played in the play room. Today Dan made the most beautiful and complex train track! I told him he should be the volunteer track builder at the UCD play room when we get back to town. Then we got a surprise when Grandma and Grandpa arrived before noon! They were on the road at 5:30 this morning to come visit us and help out with the kids. Drew jumped up to give Grandma a hug when he saw her.
Then, we had a visit from the Home Pharmacy people and Dan and I learned how to flush a line and change the cap. We're that much closer to being actual nurses now. Tomorrow we have a nurse coming to teach us how to administer the IV antibiotics and someone else to deliver our supplies to the hotel! They expect to discharge us around 1. Yay! I cannot wait! I will be sure to let everyone know once we are out of the hospital. We might need a moving van to get all our stuff out of that room!

My fancy calendar--it's a good thing we're leaving tomorrow or I would have had to make another one!

Hooray for 1:00 today! That is so exciting! Praying that there are not any delays. Can grandma and grandpa get trained in how to do the line stuff, so you can come to the wedding tomorrow??
I am so glad that you guys get to leave the hospital! Even though it's not home yet, it will feel so wonderful to have everybody sleeping in regular beds and under the same roof!
