Betty-I agree with the majority of what has been said. You spent and still do spend a lot of $$ on those you love and things like windows for your home, so if you choose to spend a couple grand on a trailer to make you happy, then the rest of them can sod off.

I too think of you want to hang out with the boys this weekend, then do that-plus, how many more weekends will the Wonderland be open?? Buffalo will still be there in Oct, but the odds are the wonderland will be closed for the season.

Grandma Janice did get to see him on Sunday and she will be here tomorrow to help taxi me around. Can't wait til I can drive again. She will come in the am and after we grab some breakfast, we will go to the hospital and then come back home to get a few things done. She will get to go home for the weekend and SIL is coming to help over the weekend since Chris has to go back to work tomorrow. He works 10-10 Fri and Sat, and opens Sun-next Fri where he will do the 10-10 for the weekend again. Thank God for Mom and SIL-otherwise I would be freaking out over how to get to the hospital and how to get some of the stuff done around here-still can't do a few things on my own yet.

Copied from SI-
Yesterday I got to give Jonathan a bath for the first time-usually they seem to do it right B4 we get there. Well, he was not a happy camper of course and by the time I got done the poor kid was horizontal in the incubator with his feet hanging out the hand hole thingie-LOL-it was quite a sight to see-it was like the Indy 500 for bathing. He is up to 40ML of food, but is still only eating about 15-20ML every other feeding from a bottle. The Dr came in and talked with us and told us how impressed he was with Jonathan's progress. As soon as they can turn off the blue light they will take him out of the incubator and put him in an open crib. When they do that they will "lowjack" him as I like to call it-put a bracelet on his ankle and if he comes within a certain footage from the doors leading out of the NICU an alarm will go off with his name and location to prevent baby snatching. A funny from yesterday-Chris likes to do this thing where he says "Daddy is going to eat your hands" and he makes num num noises and pretends to eat his hands. Yesterday he did this but said "Daddy is going to eat your nose" when he leaned over towards Jonathan's face he started freaking out. We all, nurse included, started laughing hysterically. I'm guessing he wants to keep his nose, but Daddy can have his hands-LOL Chris will have to work from 10-10 the next 2 days, so after today he won't get to see him until Sunday-I am sure it will be hard for him, but he opens every other day until next weekend again.

Betty-here is the pic with Grandma:)
