Tossing and turning
Last night I had an epiphany... Noel can toss and turn on her own. I know this may sound like no big deal, but I started to think that it was just in April when her nurses or I would have to reposition her every three hours so that one side of her body wouldn't fall asleep. Now she is able to reposition herself whenever she feels like it. I realized this last night when she kept tossing and turning and kicking me. She finally woke herself up around 11:30 pm and because of an irritating diaper rash she stayed awake until a little after 4:00 am. When you're up that late you really start to think of things, sometimes it's easy to look over all the little improvements Noel is making in the busy day time but at night I have more time to reflect. It is absolutely amazing how much Noel has improved since she has been on the Vent, I can't even imagine where she'll be in six months form now, she's already doing things that at one point I thought were impossible. Sometimes it seems like the vent has opened up a whole new world of possibilities for Noel!

That's funny you say that because most of my "blog-worthy ephanies" come in the middle of the night...there's something about that peep valve blowing in your ear that brings out profound thoughts!!!! What's also funny is Faith was up too from 12-4 (but differnt then her normal stuff..) she was wide awake and wanted to play. Perhaps our girls were punishing us for leaving them for the night!
