Today is Sunday, October 28 and G-man must have had a lot of prayers today because it is such a great day.  He's been so active - he tells me when he's awake by standing up in the crib and jumping up and down. The neurosurgery team came in at 9am and said his JP (drain tube) could finally come out!  That was not a pleasant experience for Grayson, but they said he shouldn't have really felt pain just discomfort.  We are SO happy to have that out!

The big news is that Grayson is going home early!  He was doing so well that they said they could discharge him today.  We were shocked but very happy.  It's hard for these kiddos to really get good sleep when they share rooms.  Inevitably, babies are babies, and they're not going to get cranky, have medicine, and the all-dreaded vitals at the same time.  So they're constantly waking each other up!  Seattle Children's is building a new wing, and one of the features is that kids will have their own rooms, which would be awesome for them.  Aside from that, though, Gray's experience at Seattle Children's has been so great.  Everyone took such good care of him.  It's a great hospital for parents too.  The cafeteria is so cheap, there are nice calm outdoor areas everywhere, there are 2 Starbucks stores, and also a big resource area for parents where you can do laundry, shower, get coffee, read, get on the computer, or even sign up for a massage (I didn't get to do this, but it sounds awesome).

Time to pack up and get on the road!
