Week 38, Day 5, Rooming In

Tonight is Hannah's first camping trip. The three of us are sleeping (I use the word loosely) in a nice private room at the hospital. This is essentially a practice run to make sure we can handle Hannah when she gets home, and that she can handle us.

She's up to 5 and a half pounds today, breathing and eating fine. If all goes well, she'll come home Saturday. Most of the hurdles are logistic at this point, like getting the home oxygen equipment delivered, taking an infant CPR class, and testing how well Hannah does in the car seat (she hasn't spent much time sitting up yet).

We've been worried about Mel and Butch (my sister and brother-in-law) out in San Diego, since they live very close to where the wildfires are. In fact, the fires were just one ridgeline away when the wind shifted, but their house is relatively safe for now. Who needs that kind of excitement?
