Before heading to the west side last weekend, we did a hospital tour, and asked a million questions. We are really happy with Kadlec so far. Then we headed to a meet and greet with Dr. Matta, who will be Casey's pediatrician, and her nursing staff. We were very reassured that we can call anyone for help, any time day or night. The Kadlec labor and delivery nurses, our pediatrician, or the lactation specialists at the hospital. Dr. Matta gave us a huge book by the American Association of Pediatrics, on every topic in the world, as a reference book.
Friday night we headed to my parents house and had a big family dinner with all the siblings. Dad made carne asada (I doubt I spelled that right!), he is the best chef EVER! Saturday was the shower!!! We also visited with Ryan's parents and Aunt, Uncle and cousins! We had homemade chili and played cards. Sunday, we had breakfast with Liz and Roxie and headed back home. We had left Josh and McKenzie home, with our neighbor feeding them, which worked out great. Tobie got to come with us, because he is old and spoiled.
This week, I have another appointment with the diabetes nurse, and an ultrasound! I can't wait to see how big Casey has gotten, and maybe get a better idea of what our birth plan is going to look like. I am racking up even more questions for our OB. He is great, he lets me ask everything in the world, and answers very thoroughly. I am new at this, I need lots of answers, lol!
Wow, you have a great personal photographer! lol It WAS a fun weekend!
