sleepy by and goodnight...

The sleepiness is hitting right now. We did not sleep much last night so I am really hoping for a few hours tonight. This afternoon my parents, Seth and Dan came. Once they arrived my mom and I went down to Cafe West to buy some parent meal tickets for while we are here and my mom and I sat down and talked for a bit. When we leave the hospital our lives will be different than from how we came and there will be some adjusting that we need to figure out.
Once my mom and I got back to the room the boys left to play disk golf for Seth's birthday. Mom and I spent part of our time looking up backpacks for the pump and the rest of the time playing with Jillian. She spent a lot of time sleeping today but when she was awake she was happy. She loved playing with her O ball and links however she kept getting them caught on the bridal. Around 3pm we gave her 15ml of water. She played with the bottle but she took it all and kept it down. Around 3:30 her pump ran out of food after I called them to let them know she was getting low. After about 15 min a nurse came in with more food we were able to get her started again. The boys came back around dinner time and Seth wanted sushi for dinner so we found one in the area that does take out. My mom and I went and picked it up. While we were gone Jillian was playing with grandpa and laughed for the first time. I'm sad I missed it but Brent took video for me. Hopefully she will laugh again for us tomorrow because we have not gotten her to do it again since. While mom and I were out we stopped at Walgreen's to buy some soda. While we were there we decided Seth needed birthday dessert and we bought him the Walgreen's brand of cupcakes. We headed back to the hospital and we had a feast. Jillian slept through it all but she did get to join us in eating... just in her own way. Hospital visiting hours are over at 8pm for anyone who is not parents or grandparents so a little after 8 Dan headed out. At 8:10 we decided to give her a little more water. She had a very small choke and spit up some of it around 8:40. Around 8:30 Seth started to not feel well and they decided to head home. Around 9 they came in with her meds (since the nurse shift change at 3:30pm I have felt like things have gone a lot smoother and things have been done on time!). Around 9:20 we swaddled her and put her in her bouncer that my parents brought up. I'm hoping they let her sleep the night in the bouncer since last night I kept having to get up and readjust her in the bed. Jillian only sleeps in a bed in the hospital and this time she has a large crib so she slides around in it a lot and kept ending up sideways at the end of the bed so she was no longer at an incline. Hopefully she sleeps better too in the bouncer since it is more like her rock-n-play.
Well I think it is time for me to get some sleep. Brent is snoring on the couch and Jillian is putting up her last fight before she finally goes to sleep.
