Just a short one (more of an excuse to post a BEAUTIFUL picture of our boy than anything!)
There is one note-worthy progress to pass along: Josiah is starting trials OFF his ventilator! Woohoo! We're very very happy with his ability to handle up to 2 hours continuous off his ventilator. It certainly gives us and him more mobility (plus it cuts down on the noise in our home!) Most of the day he will remain on his vent, but we'll give him 2-3 times throughout the day to go 'wireless'. It's a wonderful, wonderful feeling.
Also, Josiah demonstrated for the first time today his ability to use his hands to push himself back into a sitting position. Usually he uses our fingers as a support to pull and push himself back and forth, but now he's figured out how to do it without our assistance! Yay!
Anyways, here's a picture taken of Josiah last week. Enjoy!
Grace & Peace
