Day 16 - Thursday, August 7, 2008

Since Bill had to work today, he had to get up early to leave the hospital and be back in Marshall (5am!) Which actually wasn't that big of deal because I get woke up at 5 for medication, but I get to go back to sleep. There have been no major updates from the Drs. the last few days. Will have next ultrasound on Friday.

My mom and Mimi come to visit this afternoon. When Bill brings Mimi up he brings her in her bag, which looks like a duffle bag. So, no even knows that he has a dog. My mom walks Mimi up on her leash. Walks right through the lobby into the elevator and up to my room. Only security stopped her and asked about Mimi. Glo just said she was a therapy dog and they let her go. I am sure Mimi just pranced her way up here and wanted to meet everyone along the way. Probably had that silly smile on her face with her tongue hanging out, too.

While Glo and Mimi were still here I also had a visit from my friend Kris. Kris is from BC and has 2 1/2 year old triplets. She was on her way to a GKMOMS (mothers of multiples) meeting. The GKMOMS have been very supportive of Bill and I throughout the pregnancy, especially since I have been in the hospital. Kris brought me a nice journal to record my stay in and several baby night gowns that she highly recommended as a mother of triplets.

After everyone else had left, our friends Tim & Carol stopped by just before Bill arrived after work. Bill has the next five days off, so he is planning on spending most of his time at the hospital. My mom took Mimi back to Freeland with her for a while.
