The day after we brought Camilla home from the hospital we all took a little outing to go swimming at the hotel where Tim's mom and grandma were staying. It was Arthur's first time swimming and he had a blast, especially since he had his new ball to play with in the pool. He really loved being in the water but even more than that he loved being out of the water and throwing his ball in for Tim to then throw back out for him to chase. He thought he was so funny running after his ball. Every time Adam would pretend to grab the ball though Arthur would squeal at him and let him know that it was his ball and not Adam's.
When Camilla was discharged from the hospital her blood test showed that her bilirubin levels were a little high. So the next day we went back to the hospital for her blood to be drawn for it to be tested by the lab again. Her number had gone up and so we had to put her on the bili blanket to give her the UV light. Everyday for that whole week she had her blood drawn and was kept on the light until finally the day before we left for Moscow. Her number had gone down enough. It was a huge blessing.
You can see a little bit of the glow from the blanket by her right shoulder. She was my little lightning bug when she was on the light.
