Photos: Trip to Omaha to see Baby Keira

This evening we went to Omaha to see Andrew, Hester, and Baby Keira.

The NICU part of the hospital is new, and looks like a 5-star hotel (but you'd better believe it costs a whole lot more to stay here).  There's a big, nice gift store, but by the time we arrive, it's always closed.

Is the engine for sale?

After leaving the hospital, we went to Applebee's, as we had a gift card from our neighbors.  I ordered 'Neighborhood Nachos' (I got it with chicken, rather than ground beef).  When the platter arrived, I understood exactly why it was named thusly:  there was enough on that tray to feed an entire neighborhood!  That one plate alone held 1,850 calories.

I managed to plow my way through a third of it, and then I was full.  They gave us a lidded carton to put the leftovers in.  We took it home, and shared the rest for supper the next night.  The chips weren't as crunchy by then, but it was still good.
