We've been doing so much talking about little Audrey that little Austin has gotten left out a bit. I have given him the nickname, Hondo, which Shannon absolutely hates, but John Wayne would love it........:)) It certainly beats calling him the little Gerald Ford that Shannon was calling him. The little guys is definitely fussy at night which is totally awesome..........I'm kidding. He has really grown in the past three weeks. Macy has really taken an interest in helping Shannon and I take care of him. We were really kind of worried about that, but she is really protective of him. I'm including a video of him getting his bath last night. Audrey continues to progress........she started becoming more alert yesterday evening right before we left, and the nurses commented to me early this morning that she is definitely more alert. She seems to be staying awake a little more with appropriate eye movements and body movements. Hopefully, the phenobarbital will continue to wear off. Everyone has really been super supportive of Shannon and I. My work has really stepped up and has overwhelmed us with support. We have been totally blown away by all the giving that they have done. We will always be grateful for everything that our friends and family have done for us whether it be a prayer, meal, or whatever.........talk to you soon.
