Movin' on up?

What a wonderful morning it was to wake up and find that Hannah had been taken off of the vapotherm and was doing great! They placed her on regular oxygen early this morning and she has continued to do well throughout the day. During rounds this morning, the doctors said that they would monitor her for 12-24 hours and then we could go to the floor. We are crossing our fingers, but we should be on the 6th floor tomorrow morning!
Another wonderful surprise of the day was Hannah's first smile since the surgery. It was great to see her little smiling face for the first time in 11 days. It was an undescrible moment that I will never forget...it was almost as good as seeing her smile for the very first time.
We were thankful to have some more visitors today. My mom and dad, my sister-in-law Shannon and Jeff's dad came in from Maryville last night to visit with us, although I am sure they were here mostly to see Hannah :) . We also got to spend a small amount of time with Chris and Regena again. It was great to have some family and friends around...it makes this situation bearable. It has just been another roller coaster day and we are exhaused and ready to go home.
