We are settled in NYC!

We are settled in for our first night at the RMDH-- it is hard to believe we have not been here for 3 months-- but it was not hard to get back into the groove-- There are a few familiar faces and lots of new faces-- It is again a FULL house--!
Grier decided we should go to Southern Hospitality for dinner-- Jeff enjoys the sweet Tea and Grier wanted creamed corn... aka "corn soup"-- well, in 3 months the menu has changed so he had to settle for corn on the cob! We walked back our normal path and stumbled upon a new bakery right next to the RMDH-- Grier got a pink cupcake with a baseball topper-- ! He is watching a movie and all snuggled up in a Hello Kitty blanket--- Grace let him borrow it for a few days- He is a little apprehensive about tomorrow-- I told him we had to get a picture taken at the hospital and he was fine with that until it dawned on him that his port has to be accessed to get the white medicine-- AHHH! The smarter he gets the harder this is going to be--! I hope he shows the real Grier tomrrow at clinic-- he has been so funny lately-- His new favorite show is Fennious and Ferb--and he is saying things just like the show!

Jeff is busy watching baseball on the 1 TV--- I may go crazy if we are going to only watch sports in this tiny room!! I guess I can work on figuring out facebook!! HA!HA!

I am looking forward to getting these tests over-- I am very anxious and I already miss our new normal--!

Glad you are settled in watching baseball on TV -- or at least G and J. Sounds like a bakery right next to the Donald could see the Christenburys quite often during this trip. Will be thinking about you tomorrow and praying that everything will go smoothly and Grier will do well with no discomfort!

Love and prayers tonight from the Queen City to the Big Apple,
