This morning Jillian and I woke up less then 30min before we needed to leave for work, and believe it or not, we made it there with time to spare! After we got there they realized that Jillian made 5 babies in the baby room, thus I was not needed. We left about an hour and an half after we arrived.
When we left we headed up to Children's for a weight check. We were suppose to go Friday but we were down to one car so we went today. We hit traffic nicely and made good time. We smiled at our favorite security guard as we went in (is it bad that he recognizes us?) and headed to GI. We went to check in and they recognized us there too making check in fast. They took us back to the weight room and I undressed Jillian. We got her length and then I changed her diaper. Today is a day she has decided not to keep her pee in. We put her on the scale and she was 9.76kg (about 21.6lb for anyone who does not live in my metric world). Yeah! The whole time we were there she was super smiley! She was dancing for them without music too! She is such a ham around there!
We left the hospital and headed to Kenosha to pick up the forgotten meds. Then we stopped at my in-law's house so I could drop off their computer. We then left Kenosha and headed for Lake Geneva. We went to the new Joann Fabrics and picked up stuff for Jillian to start making Christmas gifts. I know it is a little early, but if I dont start them now it is just not going to happen. Between Thanksgiving and her birthday, Christmas comes up fast! We then ran to Target quick to pick up a few things and then headed home. We started on our Christmas craft (if you want to see what we are making go to the "Teaching Tips" tab on this page). I broke glass all over the floor and Jillian tried to eat paint, but we had a lot of fun. I even broke my no Christmas music before Thanksgiving rule because how are you suppose to make Christmas gifts without Christmas music?
Today when I was talking with my sweet friend Amanda, I was reminded of the awww of God's amazingness. (ps. my friend Amanda is an awesome person at helping you see God's amazingness!). Friday night into Saturday Jillian developed a dreaded cough again. Brent and I were scared, and in that fear I prayed out to God that he show us then and there if we needed to take her to the hospital. That it would not be days of wondering and second guessing. God answered that prayer! Jillian's cough is almost gone. Saturday night into Sunday she did not cough as much and was only up a few times crying (super weird for her to cry during the night) She only needed two nebs yesterday and so far only one today. God showed us! He took care of the cough! He helped us not to worry! And He created this great thing call coffee to help mommas stay awake when their kids don't sleep for two nights in a row! Maybe a lack so sleep was the reason I did not wake up to my alarm this morning....
