Day 30 Aunt Beans House

So I'm typing this on Saturday as things got crazy yesterday.

We had labs in the morning and confirmed that there wouldn't be labs on Monday due to MLK Jr Day. We got stocked up with saline and heprin to continue to flush his PICC line. He was a champ at labs and weighed in at 14.6 kg or 32.2 lbs.

We came home and got ready to go to Sam's Club to get a big package of string cheese b/c someone (Ian) is eating 3 a day. We then headed out to Aunt Bean's for lunch and some play time at a house with carpet :) Ian had....a string cheese for lunch big suprise. He had a great time at Aunt Beans with his cousins (who were made to "bath" in germ-x before seeing him). The highlight was playing with bathtub paints and the foosball table. We left Aunt Bean's at 4pm and that was a mistake as it took two plus hours to come home through rush hour ATL traffic--it was worse than normal because a car was on fire in the middle of the interstate and shut things down for a few. Ian and Livia thankfully slept for most of it.

On the way home we got the joyous news from our transplant coordinator that Ian was moving to a T/Th lab schedule instead of a MWF schedule. That is a good step of progress and is quite exciting.

I was solo going to dinner through the "beeping door"--we didn't make it without the alarm going off. While waiting for dinner to be served, Ian discovered the play area for the RMH-by saying "hey look there are toys in there". Yipes! I have have been hiding that area from him all this time just b/c of the germ factor. Hopefully he won't remember it for a few.

Ian and Livia stayed up so late last night--probably b/c of the really long nap in the car. They fell asleep around 10:45 not due to lack of trying. Livia would wake up each time I tried to put her down and Ian wanted Mommy to lay with him and was trying to see Daddy come. Brett finally arrived about 20 minutes after the kids went to sleep. Nice timing! I was so tired that I went to bed to be rested for tomorrow's activities.....
