Yee Haw

We had a family outing to the Houston Livestock Show & Rodeo tonight! We just did the livestock part-- & dinner (BBQ-- YUM!). It was WAY too crowded for our taste so we didn't stay long but we did get to see my favorite part, the "Birthing Center" where all the new baby animals are. My favorite are the piggies! They were almost as cute as my little piggies! As you can see, Nathan & Alexa had a great time. I can't wait for them to be big enough to really enjoy it. I just know they'll love the petting zoo!

Those are some great pictures! The twins really look like they are having a great time.

I bet it was fun pushing a double stroller through the crowds, huh?

Love these pictures! We never made it to the Rodeo this year.
Greg is bummed and will be more so when he sees the picture of Sam with that giant turkey leg. :) His favorite part is the food... no shock there.

Dear Nathan and Alexa,
Once again I have to remind you to stop growing! You are getting too big and too cute! Your first rodeo, right? How exciting! We miss you and love you and can't wait to see you soon!

Today we got together with another set of twins! Caden & Addison are just a month younger than Nathan & Alexa and were born at Texas Women's also! I met their mom (Laurie) through an email list I got on while on bed rest in the hospital. There was another mom who was supposed to join us who also has boy/girl twins their age-- but she couldn't make it. What a picture that would have been!

Nathan McKay Oldroyd Born August 4th at 6:37 a.m., weighs 5 lbs. 8.5 oz, & is 20 in. long Alexa Dawn Oldroyd Born August 4th at 6:38 a.m., weighs 4 lbs. 5.5 oz, & is 1 6.75 in. long We are so excited that they are finally here! The C-Section went very well & Alisha is recovering well, with the help of pain meds! Nathan needs quite a bit of help with breathing but is improving. We’re told that he may get his ventilator tube out today & they would help him breathe using a C-pap. He breathes ok on his own so he mostly now just needs some pressure to remind him to breathe. He is still in the highest level of the NICU but is doing well. He’ll be in there for at least a few days after we get to go home. Alexa is tiny but doing extremely well. Alisha was able to hold her while still in the OR before she needed some oxygen help. She only had to stay on the oxygen until 11 a.m. and is still in the lower level NICU. She should get to move to the normal nursery tomorrow m...
