We are all tired today :)

Still stuck here in the good ol' South Austin Hospital. I'm feeling much better pain/discomfort wise and fever's gone, but I will still be here for at least one more night. We have to make sure I'm in the clear and able to transition to a more regular diet without any problems before getting out of here. Hopefully home by Saturday at the latest. Also talked with Dr. Jim this morning about my next round of chemo and we decided it's best to let my body fully recover and just wait an additional week, so this really feels like the chemo regimen that never ends! Geez. I am already party planning with an end in sight...

Daddy picked Austin's outfit for school today
I'm really missing my little guy Austin. Today was Mother's Day Tea at his preschool and Jonathon sat in for me (at the table with a bunch of 2 year olds and moms). He sent me videos of the whole thing and brought me a crown and wand that they made together for me. What a sweet Dad.

I look so pathetic. haha. I really am doing ok. I promise.
Jonathon had one of those fun days with a toddler when the 2 year old doesn't take a nap because he's hyped up on Mother's day tea cookies and a birthday party cupcake and all seems well until about 5:30 when toddler's totally exhausted and has no clue what he wants or doesn't want. haha. Been there! They facetimed me around 4 pm. All seemed well. Austin was at the super tired, but super hyper phase...Jonathon chased Austin around with the phone while he pushed a shopping cart yelling 'Mom, come on, I show you something...' I could only hear Jonathon's heavy breathing trying to keep up. It's one of those experiences that I'm glad Jonathon got a taste of because it's one of those things you just don't get until you're there yourself. haha. I have a feeling Jonathon might have a better understanding of why I have a sign on my doorbell that says 'do not ring.' I do NOT underestimate the power of a good nap for a 2 year old or for their caregivers. Jonathon called me a while ago to say everyone was safe and sound in bed. I'm pretty sure Dad thanked God tonight that he survived the day all the way to bedtime. That job ain't no joke friends. haha. I can't wait to get home and I think my guys are doing just fine without me, but they might be about ready for Mom to come home too.

Pics of the 30 minute facetime session. Every pic I tried to catch was blurry. He's a fast little sucker. Even when he's wiped. 
Hoping to win the day by getting some sleep tonight!!!
Love
Jenn
