Day 3 was pretty uneventful, which is good when you are in the hospital and you have a newborn! Neetie and Cole came to visit for a few hours and so did Aunt Kate. We felt Cole needed some time with us, so we sent Maya to the nursery and we all went to lunch in the cafeteria here at Good Sam.
After lunch, Cole helped bring Maya back to our room from the nursery and he wanted to "pretend sleep." This is a new game he started last week. We realized this was the opportunity to try and get him close to Maya since he still did not want to hold her. This was a pretty big success as you can see from the pics below! Also, Cole is the master of the elevators here at the hospital. He ALWAYS has to push the buttons, both to call the elevator and once we are inside the elevator. He announces everything he is doing to anyone who will listen and the elevators are always full, so there is usually someone who engages Cole and lets him push buttons for them as well. He loves this!!
Neetie, Cole, and Kate left after a while and the three of us were by ourselves until Emily Taylor visited us. We roped her into picking up dinner for us (Dewey's pizza, YUM!!) and she was thrilled to meet Maya and hold her for a while.
Maya was a little more alert on this day and we were able to get a few pics with her eyes open. We also received flowers from Megan's "family" at TGG and we also received flowers from Gran, Grandpa, Aunt Sarah, and Aunt Kristen!! The room smells WONDERFUL and not so much like a medicine cabinet! Cole also brought his sister some balloons and he was very proud of himself. Overall, it was a pretty quiet and uneventful day!! Stay tuned for more updates!
