Each day continues one of us says.... 'wow this is a big day'... I mean - does it compound or what? We knew going into today it was going to be a big day. We had another wonderful Holiday Inn Express breakfast and coffee and arrived at the NICU by 7:50am for Logan's 8:00am feeding. Our schedule today...
Logan's speech therapy and physical therapy... ummm the most amazing resources for her long term development (combined with OT that we will see tomorrow)....
virtual court for the official interim order for adoption
coordinating with the hospital social worker and case manager
lessons from the expert in g-tube
intense continued lessons and coaching from our amazing nurse who is a Tubie Mom!
talking to insurance company to have Logan officially added to our insurance
oh ... and it is bath day today for Logan too...wowzers
..... basically a lot of adulting in a very consolidated period of time
Today we have a copy of a signed 'judgement' regarding our adoption of Logan. We also have the first leg of the ICPC form (the one form that permits us to leave Illinois) completed - Illinois has approved and signed it and it has been set to NC...once it comes back we can leave this state...(and upon Logan being discharged - that too).
We ended our day with a trip to procure a large Yeti so we can safely transport all of the frozen breast milk birth mom continues to provide. We also may have purchased some outfits for a potential photo shoot the hospital has talked about...so there is that too!
Oh each day is so big.... the biggest is watching Logan grow and develop. The staff is so impressed at her progress of being alert, tracking our voices, and snuggling into us. She is doing so good with her head control, communication, and relaxing... just relaxing with us :)
So- that is today.... tomorrow is Wednesday and we shall see what it brings! Thanks for following our journey!
