Fun Hospital Visit

Well you know you are weird when the funnest thing you do to celebrate your babies' birthday is to go to the hospital, but that is what we did. I had been thinking about doing it, but knew that we had invited all the people we most wanted to see to the party. But when Catherine (the nurse who was a "primary" to Katelyn & Brandon) called to say she probrably wouldn't be able to make it to the party I dedided to just go. It was a fun visit and we got to see a lot of people in the NICU. We also visited Perinatology, but we didn't get any pictures there, they were busy preparing for a transfusion that day. The pediatric surgeon who has done Brandon's surgereies and who we think is an inspired genus happened to be at Utah Valley that day so we went to see him in the clinic. As we left the hospital that day Derek said "Mom, does everyone at this hospital know us?" No, thank goodness - not everyone!

Brandon with Dr. Downey (who as long as we can keep Brandon healthy, we'll be seeing again on the 21st for the hernia repairs)

Katelyn gets a little overwhelmed when we do these visits. But here she is with Catherine.

Brandon is a bit more easy going.

Brandon with Deann a lactation specialist.

That night we let them open presents. They both enjoyed it, but we got some great shots of Brandon's joy:





I love Brandon's expression in this one!
