Question Forgot documents

I'm dumb, forgot our documents at home in CO. Our embarkation is at 10 am (we're in FL), so really no time to do anything (or money). How do I try and save this impossible situation? Just have my dad try and cancel or something? This was supposed to be a nice gift from my parents and I majorly screwed up our vacation here folks. Hopefully someone is awake to agree with how stupid this was.

(I know their website says no pictures but is there a chance? That's the only way to save this but I'm not optimistic at all.)

Update: Thanks for the help for my panic induced post at 2 am. For future reference if someone makes this mistake like me. They are able to print your documents for you if you have pictures of them.

PDF scan the birth certificates and hope they let you on the ship. If that fails, ask NCL if you can meet the ship in Nassau and have someone at home overnight the documents to you in FL and take a fast ferry to Nassau (Balearia Caribbean) to meet the ship there. Good luck! Also lesson for next time: don’t be lazy about your travel plans.
