Day 32
Yesterday was great day! Robbie spent the majority of the morning partying!! He was bright eyed and bushy tailed starting at 4:30 in the morning. Needless to say mom did not get much sleep, but it always makes it easier when Robbie is in such a playful mood. It is always nice to see his personality. At lunch time we had 3 great surprises. The first being for mom: Chick-fil-a brought lunch for all the parents in the hospital. IT WAS AMAZING. For all of you that don't know, Mike and I eat there regularly and has been the eating establishment of choice when we venture off hospital grounds. I was even more surprised when they had sweet tea! It was much needed after the early morning wake up call from Robbie! The 2 surprise was for Robbie. The Chick-fil-a cow made a special stop in our room to visit Robbie. He absolutely LOVED it! He was hitting the cow on the head and giving him high hoofs, it was so fun. Needless to say I think Robbie will forever hold a soft spot in this heart for Chick-fil-a. The third surprise of the day was Grandpa came from Maryville to visit for a long weekend. Robbie was so excited to see him and entertained both of us for a solid 2 hours before he caved in to his exhaustion. From that point forward we didn't hear much from him. He slept the rest of the day! I guess all excitement wore him out.
Day 33
Today unfortunately has not been as good as the last week. Late last night or early this morning Robbie got a fever. We had a new nurse today and when I got to the hospital she mentioned nothing of him being warm. Well all it took was one kiss on the forehead and I knew something wasn't right. So I immediately took his temp. Much to my disliking he had a fever. So instead of being passive, I decided to approach the nurse and get things moving on contacting the doctors and ordering labs. So with in 15 mins. we were getting xrays, having blood drawn, and urine taken. I was so glad they moved so quickly. Unfortunately, the quick movement doesn't really help us much today, but it started the culture growing process so tomorrow in the morning or early afternoon we will have an idea if there is an infection or not. I was hoping that as the day progressed this silly fever would be gone and we would back on track, but unfortunately that wasn't the case when I left tonight. Prayers for whatever is bothering Robbie to go away would be much appreciated. Other than the fever Robbie spent the entire day sleeping. Also, we did not hear anything on Dr. Sponsellor in regards to the pelvic x-ray. We did however give Robbie a baby gram today, which is a x-ray that goes from the chin to the thighs. By doing this we avoided Robbie having to get another X Ray if Orthopedics wanted one. So the X-Ray is in the computer if ortho wants to look at it!
Mimi came down for the weekend also, so now Robbie has 2 visitors. He absolutely loves to see all the extra love and attention and his momma doesn't mind a night or 2 off either!
Just a reminder that if anyone in the Kansas City area is bored tomorrow, that Another Round for Robbie will kick off at 1 pm at the Shoal Creek Golf Course! Mike will be there and we would love to see everyone out to support our sweet little boy!
As always we are so thankful for the prayers!! Please keep them coming.
