Extended Stay

Already the difference is apparent between having a first and second child.  With Jonah, it was comforting to stay in the hospital under the watchful eye of nurses and experienced hospital staff.  This time around, we were eager to rest at home with fewer late-night pokes and prods.  The nurse was in the midst of completing the discharge checklist when a page from the pediatrician slammed the door in our faces.  Elliott would need a VCUG, which couldn't be scheduled until tomorrow.  Of course his health is our top priority, but it was a little disappointing to be imprisoned another day.  I've been feeling remarkably well and look forward to the beginning of our new chapter!

Uncle Kevin and Aunt Lindsay came to visit and helped pass the time.  And, sweetly, brought dinner!  :-)
