Tomorrow is the day for Will. I'm ready to get this trach thing done with so that baby can get on with being a baby. Plus, I'm ready to see his face without a bunch of stuff taped to it. It's time to move on from this ventilator stuff! I didn't get to see him for the third day in a row because Mason woke up with the funk (again). It's the never-ending ear infection. He has felt rotten all day, so he's the one that needed mommy the most. I tell you what, this having more kids than parents thing is tough!
Hays had a fabulous day. He's taking all of his feedings from the bottle and has no more feeding tube!!!!! Today they started letting him eat as much as he wants to so he can get on his own eating and sleeping schedule rather than the one set by the hospital. He's going to go back in the open crib tomorrow because he no longer needs the temperature controlled isolette. They're doing his sleep study, car seat test, etc. over the next couple of days so he can come home!! Maybe as early as this weekend!!!! We started back on the breastfeeding today and he is awesome at it. He's just a natural. We are so excited and we can't wait to get at least one of our babies home.
