Visiting the (Georgia) Pediatrician

Our sweet pea had her first pediatric visit today at the local Wellness Clinic. She is doing great. Her jaundice has diminished, and all her vitals are just perfect. If all goes well, the next appointment for our newest munchkin (okay, heads up: she's not going to be a munchkin like the rest of us) will be in two weeks, back in Madison with Dr. Meier.

Lil' Peanut and I are sitting here at the hotel swimming pool, watching the kids swim. Joe is out to grab some lunch at the grocery store across the road.

We are staying here in town for at least one more night. There is still the possibility that our kids will get to meet the birthmother tonight, but only if she is up for it. She had originally requested to meet our children. However, we did not know then that we would not be able to take the kids with us into the hospital to meet her, due to H1N1 restrictions. Now that it's a day removed from placement of the baby, we don't know what Temple's thoughts are. The agency social worker will be calling her this afternoon to see if she wants to meet.

After that (tomorrow morning, most likely), we'll head for the ocean. If we are to be "stuck" in Georgia until ICPC paperwork clears, we might as well do a little vacationing. Several of our kids have never seen the ocean. So, it looks like we are Savannah-bound.

Most importantly, however, we have photos coming tonight. After the kids are done swimming, we are off to retrieve the missing cable that will allow us to post pictures. And, oh, do we have photos! Zillions. :)
