Sleepless Nights

...have begun! We did really well last night until about 1 am. At 1 am Josiah decided that it was time to play and he only wanted to sleep if mama was holding him. I would get him to sleep and put him in his crib and he would wake up screaming until I picked him up. Then he was fine and would go back to sleep. Josiah this is a bad habit to get into. Finally a nurse took pity on me and let me sleep for an hr while she took him to the nurses station. Of course he then went right to sleep. Oh well. Daddy has decided that going back to the hotel last night and leaving us here was a bad idea, so tonight we will all be staying at the hospital. I love it!

The doctor came in this morning and said that Josiah was doing great! He looks a little jaundice this morning so she is going to run some tests. She says if he still continues to do well, we should be able to leave the hospital Monday. Hopefully we will clear ICPC before Easter weekend and we can go home!

Chris and I went to a baby class at the hospital that is required before you can take the baby home. It gives you lots of information about how to care for an infant, what to expect, etc. We were the only adoptive family there. One of the nurses asked me if I wanted a wheelchair to go back upstairs. It was one of those moments where if I let the smart alect come out in me, it would have been great! But I held my tongue and Chris and I got a good laugh at how good I look and feel for having just had a baby.

Now here are some pictures from this morning! Thanks for following our Journey.
