First Time
Jan. 27th, 2012 01:21 pmWent up to the NIC-U and saw the little twins for the first time last night. And they surely are tiny. And really cute. But really tiny. Along with cute.
And what a busy place up there. Parents at every station, staff all over the place, monitors blinking and beeping. And all these little kids, mostly sleeping, many under the "bililights" like our two little ones.
But, yeah, parents in every corner, taking care of their little kids, even at this early, impossibly fragile, stage.
One thing that amused me a little, on the way in, was that everyone has to reached inside this automated hand cleaner with both hands and stand there while these sprinkler heads go round-and-round with antibiotic cleaning solution.
But the sign didn't say, and I wasn't smart enough to figure out on my own, that you should first take off your jacket.
So as I walked away, a little damper than I should have been, I said to my wife, "Look, I got my jacket washed too."
She just shook her head and continued walking because she, at least, knew what we were there for...
