  Kids are in bed, DH as at work, and the house is ever so lovely and quiet. 

  
  

  We *think* we've found a van.  Its being detailed today, and tomorrow we will have a mechanic look at it, and unless something really wrong with it is found we have the loan okay to get it.

  
  

  Rainee slept last night without oxygen.  She desatted to 90 many, many, many times, but no lower.  I'm hoping this means she's getting a bit better, but scared to let myself hope.  I guess we'll find out at the sleep study.

  
  

  We have made the hard decision to keep her oxygen cannula on her 24/7.  The reason for this is one last ditch stand to avoid the arm restraints.  She will NOT leave the oxygen alone, because its "new" every night.  But at the hospital she figured out she couldn't pull it off 'cause it was always there.  So we're hoping if its always there she'll just get used to it, and we can avoid the arm restraints.  I oh so hope so!

  
  

  The van that we're hoping to buy is HUGE.  (15 passenger) We were actually intrested in a 12 passenger, but none were available on the peninsula, and this one is a extremely good buy.  About $4,000 under blue book.  Soooo we're curious as to how God will have us use it.

  
  

  My poor kiddos haven't seen much of me this week 'cause of all of our wretched van shopping, and errands.  Kaylin started sobbing when I left the house today.     So I sat and cuddled with her for awhile, and she had the promise of making cookies as a good bribe. 

  
  

  Unfortunately if we end up getting the van we will probably leave her one more time as a result of doing all the nasty old paper work.  But we will see. 

  
  

  Okay well gonna go check the boards, and then head to beddy bye.  I'm a ti'ie mommy (tired)
