And Back Again

I don't know how many more titles I can come up with to signify our trips back and forth between MI and OH!

Hannah and I just arrived back in Cleveland. As I've said before, it's easier to drive at night when Hannah will sleep than in the morning after she's just slept all night. She immediately went back to sleep as soon as I put her in her pack and play. Little sweetie.

We had a play date this morning with friends and then Papa was over this afternoon. I was able to run out and mail packages and pick up prescriptions before the four of us went out to dinner. Hannah and I said goodbye to Daddy and Papa and hit the road a little after 7pm. We had a stop off in East Lansing to drop off a little care package to a neighbor friend who is a freshman at MSU. It felt a little weird walking in the dorm with a toddler. It was nice to be on campus for a few minutes, though.

Jason will not be down this weekend as we are getting the air ducts cleaned out and the basement carpet cleaned on Saturday. But! Next weekend, Daddy AND Papa are coming down. Hannah was thrilled to learn that her Papa was coming to the RMDH. So, in about a week and a half, we'll have 2 visitors--how exciting!

Again, Isaac is the same. Some test results have come back--all negative. This is good, but we're all still wondering exactly what's going on. He still has a couple more tests and then we'll see. I hope to make it to rounds tomorrow to hear what his care team is thinking. Perhaps we'll never have an answer and he'll be on the road to health and healing. That would be fantastic! I can't wait to see my little buddy. I wanted to see him tonight, but, I have another little one that is sleeping and obviously can't be left alone.

My papa returned home this evening. He called and left a messsage saying he was calling from heaven. HA HA. I was happy to hear he was joking and called him back as soon as I heard he'd called. We chatted for a few minutes...I was glad to hear his voice. I was going to tell him to eat some of our favorite dessert for me (vanilla ice cream, chocolate sauce and peanuts), but I don't think his cardiologist would appreciate that too much. I think he needs to stick to his fruits and vegis. Right Gram?!

All right, I better get to bed. Given the last two mornings, I expect Hannah to be awake between 5 and 6. I can't wait until she's like 15, and then I'll wake her up at 5 or 6 on a SATURDAY.

Blessings.

Waking her up at five on a saturday? Dang, you really have a mean side, do you?

Here things are pretty much the same. Another couple days with "how to be a university student" speeches. But I can't wait to start my actualy classes next week. I picked some really awesome classes for English. I just hope I will get those.

I will be home over the weekend. Hopefully. The train people are on strike so I am not quite sure how that works out.

Praying for little Isaac and Papa.
And you *hugs*

Good morning,

I got quite a kick out of the call from Heaven myself! It is funny that Hannah has 2 Papa's. She sure knows the difference though. We are so happy for Papa "E" that he is coming down for the weekend in a week or so.

We are glad that Issac's tests are coming back negative. We pray that they continue to do so. Hopefully by mid week he can start getting formula again.

Well I have to get dressed and get to Sam's to pick up a couple of prescriptions for Papa. He needs them this morning.

Lots of Love, Gram and Papa

Hi Tiffany,
It is good to hear that you guys arrived safely. I know the back and forth has to be tiring. I wish I were closer to help out somehow...even if just to babysit Hannah for you. Hows that coming?
Her "stage" of waking up will hopefully end soon and when she is a teen it will be much different. Mine would sleep til noon if I let him.
Always praying for you all and glad to hear about Isaacs test coming back negative.
