Baltimore Days 15 & 16

Well, first I must apologize for the lack of update yesterday. We had a busy day and night that once I got back from dropping Mike off I was to tired to blog! Well if you didn't notice your going to get mom's version of the updates for the next few days because dad had to go back home and work this week....so yup you guessed it mom is flying solo!

Day 15

Robbie had a fairly good day. He decided he wanted to spend some quality time with dad yesterday before he left so he woke him up nice and early and partied! They must have had so much fun partying that when I got here they were both sleeping. And thankfully that is how Robbie spent most of the day! He did wake up for awhile in the morning and hung out, but just around lunch time he fell back asleep. this nice because it allowed mom and dad time to grab lunch and go pick Robbie up a few movies. We got his favorite movie Cars and then picked up few others we though he might enjoy. In typical Robbie style he woke up about 10 mins before we got back and let the nurse know about how mad he was that we left without him, but thankfully once we got back he settled down and watched a little bit of Cars. otherwise Robbie slept most of the day. I must admit I am jealous with how much he gets to sleep.

Day 16

Well, today marked the day that I took on this journey alone. We decided it was a good idea that Mike go back and get the school year started off right with his students and represent us at Another Round for Robbie. He had a really hard time leaving, but it will be a good break for him. I on the other hand decided it was about time I take on this journey like so many other moms and dads have done before us and try it out by myself. Thankfully, Robbie has decided he wants to be a good boy for his momma and has really slept all day. We had a slow start to the morning. You could tell his belly just didn't feel right and low and behold it didn't because for the umpteenth day in a row he vomited. He did it right after the Dr. came in and said how pleased he was doing with his feeds. Once we got him all cleaned up the rest of the day went well. The East Coast officially ran out of Stadol today. So we had to adjust his meds. He got a little more Valium and benadryl on a 2 hour rotation. Needless to say it worked and he slept all day! I even escaped back to the RMH to mix in a very quick shower. Too close out a great day Robbie decided to puke one last time. After he did, he went right back to sleep like nothing even happened! Hopefully that continues tonight too! Overall good day, but we sure do miss our daddy!
