ONe DowN 6 MoRE tO Go

Chase had his first procedure today. It went well. He was very brave and put up with a lot uncomfortable stuff. His biggest concern was preserving his modesty. Everyone did their best to accomodate him. Tomorrow's procedure will be a bit more involved. He's nervous about the anesthesia but I'm sure the nurses and docs will put him at ease. They are all very nice and great with kids.

My first impression of the hospital was great. Very organized, huge and staffed with excellent people. Even the cafeteria was awesome. Chase had bacon, eggs and hashbrowns for breakfast. Delicious!


We were done at the hospital by 10am. We came back to the hotel and just chilled. We did venture out to a nearby gas station for a few supplies but other than that, it's been a pretty low key day. I took Chase to the pool but we didn't stay long. He's used to having his brother to play with. Nothing's quite as fun without Tay:)



By the way, it's just me, my mom and Chase here. James stayed home with Taylor who is off track (not in school). My mom was able to get the time off work and come with me. I'm so grateful. She's been great moral support! So, Beth, no worries about cleaning the house. I'm sure James has it absolutely SPOTLESS! Ha..

And James, here's a picture of the huge freight train that drives by every 5 minutes. NO LIE! It literally goes all day and night and it is not quiet.


I really hope we can get some sunny weather sometime soon. The cloudiness is starting to get to me. The sky is so dark and gloomy. It's not as humid as I thought it would be but still..much more humid than home. My hair is a huge poof. It hasn't curled like this for a LOOONG time.

Well, wish us well for tomorrow. It will be so nice to get it behind us. I'll let you know how it goes.
