Stroller Rides and Spanish Lullabies

Josiah was irritable again today.  The nurse said that he's been acting differently these last few days.  He used to wake up happy and settle better after morphine but he's been moaning more.  Usually we've only had to resort to trying a stroller ride in the afternoon but the last two mornings we've put him in the stroller.  I asked the nurse to listen to his chest but his lungs sound clear.  I wonder if he is in pain for some reason.  We may try to get the local nurse practitioner to look at him but I don't imagine she's available on the weekend.

The good news is that he did have a good sleep last night.  We woke up to our 5:40 alarm and I didn't see Josiah awake until I gave him his 6:00 meds and feed.   Isaac also slept until 6:15!  Yeay!

We have a different nurse for tomorrow and Sunday.  We had cancelled Monday and Tuesday of this week so that's why we're having the weekend shifts.  It will be nice to have someone here but it will take some explaining of things.  Hopefully Josiah does well with her.  Thankfully Graham's parents will be with us tomorrow all day to help with Isaac so we can help the nurse when needed.  

My mom came over to help with Isaac this morning and Graham and I napped (I'm extra tired due to my cold and Graham is extra tired as he's been doing the late night feed.)

Isaac also had visitors this afternoon who played with him while we caught a quick nap and attended to Josiah.   Josiah enjoyed some Spanish singing from one of them while Graham, Isaac, and I enjoyed a delicious supper.

Graham and I decided to enjoy an episode of The No. 1 Ladies' Detective Agency tonight.  It's just finished so it's time for bed.  It's been nice to relax together on the couch. 

Thanks for your prayers and support!  It's great to be able to talk to a God who hears and cares.

Blessings,
