Cupcake Craving!

Still in the hospital. In the last 5 days (since I've been here) there have been 4 babies moved in and out of the room next door to mine. Usually I find babies to be quite cute and cuddly, but for the last 5 days I have heard nothing but screaming and crying. One could easily say that this directly contributes to my lack of sleep. On the subject of sleep.....
I had the BEST set of staff today. My nurse let me sleep all morning and into the afternoon, respiratory let me sleep, and my doctors who usually wake me up let me sleep. I could not be happier! I got to sleep in till 2 pm. Just as a reference point I haven't been able to fall asleep until around 4 am EVERY night. I am so exhausted as it is, but no sleep was driving me nuts. Here I am again, late at night with babies crying from every corner of the unit. I sound like a baby hater, but I assure you I am not. I'm just resentful because I'm exhausted.
Anyways.....

Tonight I am craving cupcakes. Not just any cupcakes either, I'm craving the delicious works of Le Cookie Monkey that they provided for us at our wedding. AND I'm so craving them that I went back to our wedding photos to look at them. Thought you should have the opportunity as well!

 

I would LOOOVE to be back in time on my wedding day. I would spend more time eating that delicious cake. I only got one cupcake, and that single bite of red velvet from our cake cutting. Unbelievable! They were a huge hit though, my family really enjoyed them. :) Really that's all that matters on your wedding day; Your guests enjoying the day with you! 

To all of my blog readers!

Here is our Christmas card! Unveiling and spreading the love. This is for all of you who read my blog too. I don't know how many of you there are, but hopefully you find this and enjoy it. :)

It's another late night in the hospital. I'm plagued with insomnia....

About to turn on Holiday Inn (one of my fave Christmas movies)
Here's to hoping I fall asleep and don't get woken up by a million people. This morning I woke up to a resident pressing on my belly after a full night of feeds. Ouch!

Good night blogger world!

Hospital Update

Another couple days in the hospital...
Fevers have come and gone.
My pleuritic pain has significantly diminished. When I came in pain meds would barely touch it, now I barely have to take pain meds. YES!
I did lose my voice which seems to be the only lasting grossness of my sickness. 
I'm already feeling better and, I'm getting tons of icky junk up and out of my lungs.
Other than my lack of sleep I'm feeling pretty good.

Hopefully out on Thursday!

I just finished making our Christmas cards that I'll be emailing to people, because I'm in the hospital and can't mail them out. They are so fun! This is the second year Morgan and I have done Christmas cards, but this year we have our dogs. :) I just got Mo a new puppy. His name is Panda! He's the sweetest. We are so in love with him. Of course Fancy will always be number one, she's my little princess.

Anyways, I'm having some Christmas stress because I'm stuck in here. I haven't been able to buy anyone a Christmas present and, if I don't get out before next weekend I'm hoping everyone will like their Christmas cards. Haha!

I'm going to attempt sleeping in this noisy place that isn't my home.

Sweet Dreams!

The last several weeks I have been extremely busy, or extremely sick. Unfortunately both of those circumstances caught up with me and I am once again in the hospital. I got in right before a cold started brewing...(Thank jeez!) Luckily, because I was just in a month ago I will only be here a short time. I'm thinking 7-10 days. :) Right in time for Christmas! I'm all settled into my room and, am currently being kept awake by one very unhappy wailing baby. Thought I'd try something new; here's my first "fill in the blank friday"

1. I am hoping my Christmas this year includes, lots of yummy warm drinks and, tasty treats. A fantastic amount of time snuggling with my husband and, quality with my family. I also wouldn't mind getting a pair of Solo Beats and, a memory foam mattress topper.;)

2. My biggest guilty pleasure is Teenage dramas and nerdy video games. My husband hates both....hehe! His guilty pleasures include goofy shows like Jim Hensons The Storyteller

 

3. I am most proud of my decision to get a lung transplant and everything I've done to get listed. This has been a great year for me, all my greatest accomplishments happened this year. The second thing I'm most proud of is marrying my husband. I am EXTREMELY lucky to have him in my life.

4. If I could choose one outfit to live in it would be My black sweatpants, the softest fitted tee over a cami, with my Muck Duck sweatshirt and, some toasty fleece socks with my slipper boots from Urban.

 

5. People are always surprising me in good and bad ways. In my life I have met a lot of wonderful people and I am thankful for every single one of them. They bring so much light to my life. I'm even thankful for the people who aren't so wonderful, they taught me the valuable lesson that not everyone can be trusted, and not very many people love with an open heart and open mind.

6. I would rather be sleeping next to my husband than by myself in my hospital room.

7. I love my mom and husband more than anyone/anything else in this world.

There you have it...I'm definitely ready for bed now and, the baby has stopped crying. 

Buonanotte! 

Love, love and, even more love
