Well, exciting news to fill everyone in on! We woke up this morning and called the NICU to find out that Ryan had pulled out his ventilator tube! I guess he was sick of having it in and wanted to show everyone he can breathe on his own. He now has the CPAP in and is doing okay. He again is in between going back onto the vent, but because he's not even supposed to be on the CPAP right now, we are not thinking of this as a set back. His nurse was amazed that he was able to wiggle himself off the vent, but to be honest, Ryan and I were not THAT shocked he was able to do it--he is a little wild one when he wants to be. He is still tolerating his feedings very well and still pooping like a champ. The only thing we are concered with is his oxygen and that will come in time when he gains some strength.
We are also going to be walking this year for March of Dimes. The walk is going to be on April 29th, which also happens to be my birthday! I would love for everyone to walk with us or at least join the team and help us raise money. If you are not able to do either, donateing to the team will be appreciated!
