Slumber Party with Rostia!

8:30pm
And the fun begins....................
9pm
Drawing/Coloring
10:30pm
Washing dishes, she wanted to mop too but I did not have a mop over here with us, and I was not about to go to the kids side. She is loud at times and I was afraid she would wake up the kids. Then we would have a big Casa de Esperanza slumper party, not too sure I could have handled that!
11pm
Here she is dressing up my prayer bear she found here in the apt. While also enjoying some pumpkin seeds we cooked!

dance party!11:45pm
I got some shut eye from 12am til 3am! Dorian stayed up with her!
After waking up at 3am she was ready to go and asking every little bit when she was going to leave to go to the Dr. So come 3:30am she wanted to brush her teeth and get ready, so I let her. Also come 3am the Dr. said she was not allowed to have any more to eat or drink. At this point I am not too sure she wanted any more to eat because her belly was full and she had the hicups!
4am
Playing one of my favorite games, bejeweled! It took her a half an hour or so just to learn to work the mouse. Still not sure after playing for an hour she figured out how what the object of the game was, but the important thing was she liked it!
These are just some of the moments captured last night at our slumber party!

Add Image So Miss Rosita had testing done today for an more accurate test on her hearing. For those of you who have been following my blogs we had been thru a big long process with testing and did not get accurate results with the other testing we had done. So it was next on to a machine they would hook up to her to read her brain,( sorry I don't know the technical name of the test). They wanted her to go to sleep so they could hook the equipment up to her and get accurate tests of reading her brain. Also in order for her to get tested accurately the Dr. said she needed to stay up all night.....yep thats right NO sleep, a slumper party for us. So we kept her here in the apt with me and Dorian. We started the night at 8pm but with no elec. due to all of the wind here. So the first hour we ate all sorts of goodies and filled our tummies and just laughed and giggled. Well then came 9 pm and she was wanting to do something so we got out paper and markers and went at it. Well about 10pm she was ready for bed! She was not wanting to keep her eyes open and was ready to lay down. Well thank you Lord the lights came on at 10pm and that gave her energy and she was up and at it. The pictures above explain the rest of the night. :) Although Dorian was kind enought to stay up with her and I did get to sleep off and on from midnight til 3am. :)
Rosita came over to the apt a little bit ago and wanted to know if she could watch TV and draw with me. I explained to her not tonight, we both our in our own beds and were going to sleep tonight. She just looked at me with a ornery little smirk. Today she has slept most of the day from the meds they gave her. Lets just hope she still sleeps tonight!

She left this morning with Marc at 5:30am(at 5am I sent her on down to Marc's, she was ready t go and I was ready to sleep. She had made it thru the night and now just hoping Marc could keep her awake in the car on the way to town. He said he had no problems with keeping her awake. Just many adventures in keeping her in line! :) The Dr. drugged her up with meds to help her go to sleep. Although with not sleeping all night I am sure she would have fallen asleep there on the table on her own. The test began and right off they could tell that her left ear had no hearing. Then it was on to the right ear, they found out she could hear at 110 decibels in her right ear. They said as an example that, that is rock concert level. So in all we found out today it is not correctible. So now it is on to game plan number two. We are going to have to get her going to a school so she can learn to sign, read, and write.
So please continue to pray as we continue to take the next step with what to do for the best of Rostia.
