The hospital stay

While Zeke and I were staying at the hospital, Jeremy and Mike would visit everyday. This picture of Mike is one Jeremy took. He LOVED playing with my camera and taking tons of pictures.
Trying on the football hat I made.

Giving little brother kisses......He is such a proud big brother.

My hospital stay at Henry Mayo was such a good experience. My nurses were wonderful. I think this time around it was better because I knew each of my nurses. My first day nurse was Dee Lisenbee, who is in my mother in law's ward. She was very helpful and way nice. My night nurse for both nights was Cathy, who I cut her hair. It was nice having a friendly face take care of me. The next day nurse was Patty Egetoe, who is in my ward, and I grew up knowing her. It was just so nice knowing the people who were taking care of me.
The first day was delivering, then having all my family come and visit. My parents and sister, my in laws and my sister in law and her girls all came to say hi and meet baby Zeke. My awesome sister stayed with my that night so I wouldn't be lonely. She was such a trooper. Thanks sister! That night, we watched the bachelor hating Ben. He was such a horrid bachelor. Jessica changed every diaper and got Zeke for me when he needed to be fed. She was so awesome because she had to get up early to go to work. Thanks Seester! She is truly my best friend.
The second day was just me recovering and getting up and moving. And of course more visitors, My dear friend Amber and her daughter came to say hi too! That night, my mom offered to stay at my house with Jeremy, so Mike could stay with me and help out. It was very nice of her to do that. I think Mike has a fear of hospitals, because that morning, he went home feeling sick.....with Jeremy, he went home the first night puking..........It is very weird. When Mike and Jeremy came back, the doctor said that I could go home that day if I wanted......of course I did. So that third day, was signing papers and being discharged. I was able to take a shower to feel human again and I was able to get Zeke in his going home outfit. Overall, my stay was awesome. I think if insurance changes, I want to stay with Facey and deliver and Henry Mayo again.
