What a day...

So, last night United says Micah can go home, despite his bili numbers starting to go back up a little - because we'll send him with a bili-bed to sleep on.

We kept him on that thing every moment he wasn't eating or being changed or something.

In the morning, we brought him in for his first pediatrician appointment to see how things were going. He looked very orange. The clinic didn't have needles small enough to find out how he really was doing, so we were sent to the lab at St. John's nearby.

Throughout these periods of waiting, he seemed more and more orange, tired, and limp. We waited at the lab for the results, and then were immediately sent downstairs to the Special Care Nursery because his bili numbers were very high.

So, now he's been re-admited (at a different hospital) and being closely monitored under the full-strength bili lights. Fortunately, they had a room for him with a pullout-bed/chair in it for mom.

Then, in the midst of all this, our house purchase is progressing faster then expected. We were asked to fax some paperwork and move forward with some things that we thought we had more time with. Somehow it all got done.

And to top it all off, Isaac had a violin recital. He did extremely well considering he hasn't been able to have his usual practice time with mom in several days. Yeah, Isaac! (Sorry the picture is a blur, but considering the day we had it seemed kinda appropriate.)
