October 31st started was not overly eventful. Terri came to town to see Jamie and Lily. We had called the hospital and all was going pretty well. We met Terri at El Charro for lunch and then went to see Jamie and Lily. When we got to the hospital Jamie and Joshua were visiting with Lily. I think it was the first time Jamie was able to see her but she was in a wheel chair so she wasn't able to touch her or hold her yet. I'm sure it was pretty overwhelming for both of them. We could only see them through a crack in the blinds.
Terri brought a bunch of newborn outfits from Grandma Boblenz for little Lily to where when she gets home. It will make it easier for Jamie if she doesn't have to worry about washing clothes every few days.
Josh took Terri down to see Lily and Terri took about 3 minutes of video of Lily. It was awesome. Lily was doing well. Her lungs were pretty underdeveloped which was no surprise. The doctor talked about hopefully taking her off the ventilator in 4 or 5 days. (We now know that didn't happen). She also looked a little jaudiced. If she is they will put her under some lights to help with that. That's not unusual either for preemies.
The nurse said that Jamie had a little fluid in her right lung that they were watching to make sure it did not turn into pneumonia. She would hopefully cough it up and be ok. They are going to x-ray her chest tomorrow to check on the fluid.
That's about all I have for this day.
I'm sure everyone came to visit that day but I just can't remember who all came and what else happened. I know I was worried about both of them. I know Jamie was tired and sore and so worried about her little baby. And I had asked so many people to pray for all three of them. They all wanted updates too. It helped to know people were praying for them. It gave me some comfort.
