New Beginnings!

Last night went much better than expected. I set the alarm for 4:00 a.m. and got up and went in Kaylea's room and turned the light on. I let her wake up and stand up and i got her out of her bed. I turned all of the lights on in her bedroom and the living room and kitchen so that it would be nice and bright. She sat with me in the recliner for a long time playing with a book. We watched Celebrity Poker on Bravo. LOL Around 6:30 a.m. we went and woke DH up and I took a bath. Then he took a shower and before we knew it it was 7:30 and we were on our way. We went to the hospital and waited for a while. They finally called us back around 8:30 or so and we went to another waiting area. We sat in there at least another 30 minutes. DH took Kaylea out in the hospital halls and let her just run around. She did great for having been up since 4:00 a.m.!!! Then the EEG tech (whom I happened to know) came out and said "Dawn, we're going to have to reschedule the EEG" WTH??? I said, "Um, no we're not. I'm not getting her up at 4:00 a.m. and sitting up all night with her." Anyway, there was a little bit of confusion but I got our doctor on the phone and it was a go. We took her in the room, gave her a bottle, and she was out like a light! She slept through the whole thing! She was such a big girl. I guess we won't find out anything until Monday or Tuesday on the results. I just pray everything is ok and we can get her off of this medicine!

In the meantime, I couldn't help but think about Drew all night! This was his first night away from home! Dh and I were in the bed and I couldn't quit talking. I would say "I wonder how Drew is doing", "I wonder if he's gone to sleep yet", "I hope he sleeps ok for my mom", etc. I know dh was like "Shut up and go to sleep!" LOL My mom said Drew did great. He only woke up one time and went right back to sleep. She said that the minute he woke up, he got up and went straight for the piano. LOL He LOVES my mom's and stepdad's piano! That's practically all he does while he's there.

All in all, it was a great and smooth night and day. Very unlike what i had in my mind! I told my mom that since Drew passed the test of staying away from home that they're gonna have to keep him more often. LOL I doubt that will happen, but we shall see!
