Back to Orlando

Here we are, back at our home away from home - the Ronald McDonald House in Orlando. We got really lucky this time as they called this morning saying they didn't have a room available, but the other one a few miles away did. Just as we pulled up - literally right in front of - the other RMH, I got another call that a room had just opened up at our regular RMH so we could choose which one we wanted. We chose our regular one. :D Right next door to the children's hospital we have to be at bright and early tomorrow morning. No traffic to deal with, no driving at all, just a walk next door. :)

The kids can't have any more food or formula tonight, clear liquids only. Little Man, who has hardly eaten the past few days since we had to stop his Prevacid in preparation for his tests, is now insisting he's starving of course. He wasn't at 7:30 or even 7:45 (cut off was 8:00, he started asking for food at 8:06, it's now 8:30) but now he's starving to death. Thankfully he should be out for the night soon.

The drive down here was nice and uneventful. It tried to rain a few times, but never enough to even use the wipers. Little Man and Beans have gotten to be pretty good travelers. I'm getting them nice and prepared for our looonnngggg drive when we move. ;)

Keeping my fingers crossed for tomorrow. Little Man has had time when he's woken from anesthesia really agitated in the past, so I'm a bit concerned about that, and he's at a higher risk for seizures with anesthesia, but these tests have to be done and they're really all routine so it's no big deal. Beans has had a million scopes so I'm not really worried about him, though he did break out in hives tonight for the fun of it. :p If anyone has a spare set of hands, and an extra body for that matter, I'm sure I can use it in the morning. I've never done the 2 kids having procedures at the same time before, but no big deal, right? :D
