Leah Time!

My alarm went off at 4:30 this morning and we were on our way to the hospital in Dallas by 5:40!
We made it with no problems and arrived shortly after 6:00  just after Leah and Patrick.
There was a shortage of personnel so it took awhile for them to admit her.....


which gave us an opportunity for a selfie!

We took our places in the waiting room as she was wheeled into the OR.


5 hours later she was in her room looking beautiful!
She was a bit drowsy and has napped on and off all afternoon and evening.
Leah had been looking forward to FOOD but, alas, she is on a clear liquid diet for today.
Real food tomorrow and the hospital menu looks amazing!!

We took a walk around the hospital and found a Christmas Tree!!

We will be heading home in a little while but will come back up tomorrow - during the daylight hours!
