This was our last stay at the Stamford Hospital Maternity wing, and we really made the best of it. Just enjoyed the peace and quiet, the room service, the 24/7 nurses care. It was heaven. It was so fun when the kids came to visit, but it was also a glimpse of what reality that was awaiting for us when we got home. three kids 3 years and under...yikes.
We got really lucky though, all the rooms were taken so we got a huge room. The ones they save for women on long term bed rest or families with multiples. It was so nice having a little extra space, I figured, it's my third stay here, maybe I'm a preferred pt ;) like a frequent flyers program or something.
Eve was insanely excited to learn that the baby in mommy's tummy was a girl! We decided not to tell her until she came to the hospital to see for herself. Her face lit right up, as she exclaimed "mommy, it's a sister!" She could only talk about playing dress up and dollies with her new sister. It was so darling to see her so excited, she had been thinking it was a brother lately, so I wasn't sure how she would react. Graham, he didn't really care, he was more interested in opening all the cabinets, finding every single outlet, and destroying anything he could find, namely my styrofoam cup. He looked at the baby for a second, then moved on. Oh the simple life of a 13 month old.
Just the girls!
