Yesterday was a great day!  Heath and I drove up to J-Boro to visit Kalyn and Keali.  We had glorious expectations that they would both run screaming and smiling to us.  This was not to be.

We had the unfortunate bad timing to arrive at each of their schools during naptime, so it was a sleepy reunion rather than full of energy.  But I’ll take it!  I got the best hugs from each of the girls—they have really missed us. 

We stopped by the house to pick up some more stuff we needed.  While I was doing something, Keali came over and snuggled into me without saying anything.  I felt so loved…and so sad that she is having to be without us right now.

Next we took the girls to Chucky Cheese to eat and play.  They loved it, but I think they loved spending time with us even more.  After CC, we went to the mall so they could play in the play area.  I watched them while Heath ran to a store.  I love seeing my girls having a good time.  There was a little boy there—probably 2 years old who kept chasing Kalyn.  She was terrified of him!  I really can’t blame her though.  He was cute enough, but when he smiled, he looked a bit maniacal.  She eventually toughened up and played with him though.

Sadly, we had to leave, but the girls took it VERY well.  No tears.  We arrived back to the hospital to find Andrea visiting the babies.  I was happy she was able to come see them.  She said she was questioned extensively when she got there—since she wasn’t with Heath and I.  I’m glad that the staff here won’t let anyone steal my babies!

I’m insanely tired today.  Healing up very well and walking normally some of the time.  I feel a lot better.  I am going to take a nap in a few minutes.  A badly needed nap.
