Settled back in

Callie has been doing great since she came home on Friday. It was a crazy morning the day of discharge and really ever since we got home too!

The hospital had got her off the medication that she was on around midnight, however the nurse thought Callie still needed it and gave her more medication very early in the morning. We asked the doctor to stop it and he agreed. We told the new nurse that was on that we were ready to go home and within an hour the Neuro PA and ICU doctored agreed she could go. Although we were defiantly ready and Callie was back to her baseline we were a bit shocked it was so easy. I thought for sure they would make us go to the floor for a few days. We quickly packed the bags and were outta there!

Callie did very good on the way home. She slept most of the way. We could defiantly tell she was happy to be back home in her surroundings. She was not to mobile yet and still not overly smiley as she was still tired, but we could tell that she was happy to see her big brother. I am not to sure what Zak thought. Callie has been sleeping on the mat in the living room that Zak plays on. I often wonder if he is thinking move off my mat.

On Saturday night Callie rolled over and was up on all fours. I could tell that took a lot out of her. By Sunday she was crawling again and all over the place. I was so amazed how quickly she recovered especially once back in the house. She was defiantly able to get some more rest. She is back to crawling on Zak!

While we were gone in MN Zak lost another tooth! We are not sure when or where. Chris was brushing his teeth on Friday night and it was just gone. This is the first one we “lost”. I think Zak is happy that his life is back to “normal” and we are back into his routine, although then we changed the time on him so that will take a few days to get used to.
