Day 73 or Outside Growers

This was taken on March 19th.

This is the hallway outside growers (usually the last room in the NICU before the babies go home). When Emma was still in the NICU she spent her last month or so in that room. She could only have two visitors at a time when she was in there so sometimes Rachel or I would have to wait in the hall. It was nice because there was a window right next to her bed and so we could still look in.

Day 72 or X-Factor Binds

This was taken on March 18th.

Lately I’ve been really getting into this whole comic binding thing. There is a company in Waco, TX that will bind your comics into a hard cover book. What’s awesome is that they’ve started doing custom covers (like I did with Rachel’s birthday presents) and I’ve enjoyed designing them as well. So I got the first two volumes of Peter David’s X-Factor in and they are crazy cool. So now you have to look at a picture of them.

Tim Kuhn came back into town and I asked if he wanted to have dinner with us at the hospital. He arrived, but due to some stuff going on with Emma we didn’t get to eat for a couple of hours. So instead of going down to the cafeteria and getting okay food for too much money, we decided to go to Taco Bueno. I took this picture on the way back to the hospital on Tim’s iPhone. I thought it was pretty neat.

This is again at the hospital (sorry, I’m there a lot). This is a small window in Emma’s room.

Day 69 or Spiral Art

This was taken on March 15th.

In the hospital (surprised?) there is this really huge art piece hanging from the cieling. This picture doesn’t do it’s size justice, but it’s pretty damn cool. This is what it looks like when you walk in the door and look straight up. That’s two stories up if that helps get across the size.

I had to film a scene for my acting class involving a bunch of detectives, so while I still had them all together I went ahead and got a “promotional still” that I Photoshopped into this ’70′s looking (hopefully) poster for a movie called Stake Out starring Daniel P. Ballard, Tim Kuhn & Alexandra Moore. You can see the scene, directed by me Daniel W. Ballard, at:Stake Out: The Movie .

This is Kathryn, my niece, and the bear that she sleeps with, that for some reason or another she like to have laying on top of her in such a way that it looks like he’s choking her. I thought it was hilarious and so used my phone to take this shot (thus the crap quality).
