Mommy and Baby Update

Brian again writing on behalf of Jenni:

So Yesterday went perfectly, Jenni was recovering quickly and baby slept most of the day.  In the evening he woke up for the last few visitors and was just as happy as a clam.  I don’t know why clams are so happy……Anyway, Jenni encouraged me to go home to see Chance and get a good night sleep, so I didn’t argue one bit.

I spent an hour with Chance and helped him get ready for bed.  Renee and Jason had taken him to Barnes and Noble after dinner to read some books in the kids area.  Normally when we take him, we don’t buy anything but hot chocolate or a cookie.  This time he got some cookies and had a great time.  When they came home he was so happy and giggly and I just loved on him.  Then we took a bath and when we went to his room to get his pj’s on, there was a book on his floor.  He was so excited, Jason had surprised him with the book they had been reading at the store.  

I told Chance he could watch a short show and read his book before bed.  He was such a good boy it made me very proud.

After Chance went to bed I was able to put a post on my blog and finally send out an email to a few people with pictures.  I ended up going to sleep about 11:30 thinking all was well with Mom and Baby.  This morning I woke up about 6:15 and decided to check my phone for messages.  There was a couple of texts from Jenni that had come in around 1:00am letting me know that she had gotten a bad fever and that Paxton was in the nursery.  So much for sleeping in:-(  I hurried and took a shower, got dressed and headed back to the hospital.  

When I got here Jenni was sleeping and her temp was back down to normal or close.  They were concerned about infection and gave her some antibiotics last night which seemed to control the situation.  I think she will be fine but she has some bad bruising below her incision.  Right after I got here they brought Paxton back to the room and he was sleeping soundly.  I just held him and adored him then I got to change a poopy.  He woke and was clearly hungry so Mommy is feeding and I am down in the cafeteria doing the update.  

Keep praying for speedy recovery, God is good and I know she will be fine.  Here are a couple more pics for you.
