A Quiet Night...

Mom N' Dad went to see the girls this afternoon. To our surprise, both girls were on Nasal Cannulas. That is a good thing. They look so much better. We can see their faces now. And it still boggles my mind that Allie and Brooke look so much different from one another. Am I the victim of a switcharoo? Where is that dude from Punk'd? Brooke's head could be the moon to Allie's earth size head. Crazy!
Mom N' Dad spent the night watching some good old Texas HS football. Now I said gold old Texas HS football, not good HS football. The teams were lacking in talent. The girls in the drill team had more yardage during half time than the home team. Shame, they were state champions just last year.

For those of you that are fans of the show ER, there is a story line with a baby in the NICU. Mom N' Dad love the show but now that we are experts on something medical we can tell you that ER tries to get it right but fails sometimes. The emotion portrayed is dead on. A ton of hope followed by fear and buckets of anxiety. The equipment around the baby is the right stuff, but you don't need 3 of everything. The flashing lights must be good for TV. Mom N' Dad laughed and cried during this episode at the Hollywood-ness of the events and at the closeness that it hits home for us. Now only if we could fast forward 4 weeks in 1 hour like they can on TV.

Pics of faces to arrive shortly!
