Salt Lake City Bee's

(7/5/11)
They told me that as soon as we got BrynLee off the ventilator that she'd be able to nurse, but she was still in so much pain, and on so much pain medication, that she was sleeping alot! We decided to take advantage of the time we had to be away, so Tuesday afternoon we headed to Sugarhouse to do some shopping! We got a few things we needed from Shopko and when we were walking out the door I told Jocko, "I sure wish they had a Children's Place up here somewhere!" It wasn't 5 minutes later we drove around the side of the store and there it was! I was so excited! We got a cute outfit for BrynLee, an outfit and very cute hat (that she won't leave on!) for Aybri, and shirts for both Koby and Austyn! I love that store, they have the cutest stuff!



She was shoppin!

 We ate lunch at Pier 49 and it was very good! We talked about walking across the parking lot to TCBY, but by the time we got out of there everyone was full!

Tuesday evening we went to a Salt Lake City Bee's baseball game.. It was fun, but all I wanted to do was get back to my baby.. We'd been gone most of the day, and to be gone all night was killing me! Jocko had alot of fun and really enjoyed it! Aybri got her first baseball! The manager to the opposing team came up and asked if it was her first baseball game, we said yes and he gave her a ball! It was funny to see everyone fighting over fowl balls and home runs when we just got one handed to us!

It was the first baseball game any of us had ever been to! JoDene, Jocko, Aybri and I.. It really was alot of fun, but would have been alot funner if I didn't have a 6 day old baby in the hospital that I was worried about! It sure was nice to get out and do something!
BrynLee had developed an infection Monday or Tuesday sometime and they were running cultures every day trying to figure out where the infection was.. She has a PICC line in, which is a central line that goes in the arm and goes clear in to just above her heart.. They were thinking it could be an infection in that, anywhere in her body, or spinal menengitis.. It was scary to hear spinal menengitis.. That's the last thing we needed! They did a spinal tap Tuesday afternoon and Wednesday we got news that it was clear and the infection was an ecoli infection.. Not great news, but just more annoying than anything.. BrynLee was acting fine, it didn't get her real sick, but it was a minor set back and probably delayed our "go home" date just a little! It was sure great to find out it wasn't something serious though!
