I’m off to see the princess…

The last time I saw Carley, she was in a very good mood. She had just finished watching her daily dose of Madagascar. The other day the NICU got a new TV that has a DVD and a VHS player. So now she gets to watch DVD’s and one of them happens to be Madagascar. The nurses say she loves the penguins but that parts of the movie scare her.

When they first started letting Carley watch TV, she was watching Baby Einstein in like Spanish. Bailey overheard one of the nurses’ comment that Carley could already understand Spanish. Bailey then got really upset because earlier that day Emiley had told me that she had “mocosh” (Spanish for boogers); and Bailey thought that now both her sisters knew more Spanish than her.

When I got back from Memphis I had dinner with Kristal and the girls and then I went directly to the hospital to see Ms. Carley. When I got there she was wide awake and looking around the room. About 10 minutes later, she was out cold. I’m sure she was still upset with me for not going to see her in over a week.

One of the nurses told me that while Carley was watching Madagascar, she tried to switch the movie back to Baby Einstein but that Carley would have no part of it. Carley cried and turned her back to the television. After the nurse put Madagascar back in, Carley slowly turned back to the TV and was content again.

Speaking of new televisions and other toys that Carley enjoys. The other day, Kristal and I did an interview for the Children’s Miracle Network radio-a-thon that will be held later this month. I’ll tell you one thing; Kristal missed her calling in life. She is a natural at the radio. During the interview she gave some awesome questions while I rambled on in so many directions that they have asked us to come back to I can re-tape my part. My answers were like one of those dreams you have where you start off at a football game then all of a sudden find yourself at your grandma’s house with a unicorn following you around. I guess my interview was kind of like this entry, all over the place. Well, I better head off to see my baby play her game and then head over to see my “miracle” baby. Have a great weekend.
Special Thanks to Alyson and Carrie for supplying the photos for today's blog entry.

I am sure Carlos will be getting the cold shoulder from Carley when he visits. She knows when her daddy hasn't visited.She certainly has an attitude!!!
