(There are lots more photos of Scarlette here if you're like me and just really love to spend all your time looking at pictures of my baby)
1) She's like, "Seriously Mommy? I am so over you taking my picture." She really has no idea what is in store for her.
2) Tomorrow is my six week post-partum checkup and I feel incredibly emotional and sad about that, seeing as it was supposed to take place in April.
3) The hospital has a sleep room for the NICU parents. It's just one large room with a lot of beds in it. I stayed overnight last night and I wasn't able to get a private room so I slept in the sleep room. I was the first person in there and since I was alone I decided to go ahead and change into my pajamas, rather than changing in the bathroom. The sleep room is down a locked hallway so I knew no one could walk in on me and felt very confident about this. It was only after stripping down to my birthday suit that I remembered that the sleep room? IT HAS CAMERAS IN IT. A very Merry Christmas to the NICU security guards indeed.
4) I keep waking up from terrible dreams that someone is taking Scarlette away from me. Aside from not getting any sleep since I'm pumping in the middle of the night, I'm not getting any rest either. This could, however, explain the above.
5) I have come across this verse in a variety of ways this week, via emails and devotionals and slips of paper tucked in my bag. Sometimes I think that peace tries to make it's way to you. "Now may the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, that you may abound in hope by the power of the Holy Spirit" Romans 15:13
