Pickin' for Premies

Hello friends!

We are a little bit sleepy today. We stayed up a little later than we usually do.We went to Billy Bob's again last night with Anderson in tow. Our neighbors across the street invited us to attend the Pickin' for Preemies benefit concert. Justin, the husband, is a country radio d.j. and organized the whole deal. It benefits the NICU(Neonatal Intensive Care Unit)for sickly newborn babies at Cook Children's Hospital in Ft. Worth. They raised over $100,000!!!NICU is VERY near and dear to our hearts. Anderson was a NICU baby. He was born at 35 weeks and 6 days and had wet lungs and was jaundiced. That was the WORST thing I have ever had to do in my life was leave my newborn baby at the hospital in the NICU!! But, the nurses were great and he was home after 6 days. Some babies stay there for months and months. We were one of the lucky ones to get out so early.
