It's taken awhile to upload a few of the pictures we've taken.  It's about time for me to head on for my shift at home so I'll just caption these pictures to help you know what's going on...no long commentary for me tonight!  The pictures that are from today are from the best parts of the day cause let's be honest, I'm not gonna whip out the camera when my child is screaming in pain.  But she's finally calmed down for the night so all is well.

Molly, yesterday morning, indicating her pain on the pain scale...a happy 1!

 She spent a great deal of time trying to get her little slipper socks out of the bag:

 And was thrilled when she succeeded.  She spent the rest of the time pulling them off her feet and asking me to put them on her hands:)

Here she is from this morning showing us where they marked her belly.  She was very bloated from surgery and major gas in her tummy:
 And here's a sweet smile from this morning, when after 30 hours of nothing to eat she was given the go ahead for breakfast:

 Last night she had a balloon delivered after she was asleep so what a wonderful surprise it was this morning! Thank you, Ally!  (again...think this is number 4 lol)

We got out of this stuffy room on a wagon ride twice today.  There's nothing like pulling around a baby and three bags of bloody urine out in public.  Actually it's wonderful--she's sooooo happy in the wagon.  Ryan said we should request they take the crib out of the room and replace it with a wagon...perhaps she'd be more happy with that arrangement!:

Ah, yes.  The fish.

 And the mobiles are back!  Every trip we've made here in 2010 the mobiles have been down (for cleaning maybe?) anyway, they're back now and they're my favorite feature in the lobby.  Molly wasn't old enough to care in 2009 but today she really enjoyed looking up at them:
Tomorrow the bags go away.  The tubes stay but they'll drain into a diaper.  It'll be a great day.
