Brother!!!

Today has been filled with ups and downs.  Hattie still isn't sleeping well and she's exhausted. On the upside, it's a huge blessing to have fewer tubes and IVs to worry about it.  She is starting to be a stinker and pull at the IV that is left and the leads on her chest.  But, that means she is less groggy and feeling more like herself, so that is good.

We got to put her in a stroller for a short time this afternoon and take her for a walk around the heart floor.  We walked down to the ICU rooms to see her nurse from Friday and Saturday.  She gave her the stinkeye and wouldn't wave or smile at her!

After that, she enjoyed some Teddy Grahams and apple juice like a big girl.

She loved getting to see Owen when he and Nana and Papa came to visit! I was so glad that cold and flu visitor restrictions (no one 5 and under can be on 4th floor) hadn't been put in place yet so he could come visit.  I think it was good for him to see for himself that she is okay and seeing him was good for her wellbeing to.
