Hospital Stay

We stayed in the hospital over the weekend. It was overall uneventful. The staff was great and we were well taken care of. I had to get out of bed and walk the halls every few hours to help with recovery from the surgery. It was ridiculously painful at first but got better as time passed. Kirk stayed at the hospital we me the whole time - except for once when he had to run (literally, he ran home from the hospital) home to meet with our electrician. Leave it to us to have the last of our electrical work done while we were in the hospital with Sam. Nothing like leaving it until the last minute!










Sam slept most of the first couple of days - we had to wake her to try to get her to eat most of the time. We kept her in our room around the clock except for the few times that they took her to the nursery for check ups. If we were sleeping, they kept her in the nursery for a few hours - that was nice!










Aren't babies feet just the cutest things ever?



















We had a few visitors at the hospital. Some friends from my work stopped by with gifts. Our doula came to check on us to make sure that everything was going well (she was the best!) My parents came to visit a few times and brought a beautiful bouquet of flowers. Kirk's sister April and her family also sent us a gorgeous flower arrangement.


Overall, our hospital stay was as good as could be expected - though they really need to work on the food! Kirk ran (again literally) out and got us McDonalds once because we just couldn't take it anymore.
