February 5th & 6th was the first time Wil was taken off the ventilator. It was the first time we were able to see a good view of his face. He's sooo adorable!!! Such a handsome baby! I know, I know I'm biased. He was such a good baby too. He never fussed much, if at all. Maybe it was the drugs..... he was good regardless. I used these pictures as his baby pictures to pass out to people. Our excitement about being off the ventilator was short lived. By Valentines Day his breathing was turning for the worse so he had to be put back on the ventilator. It was nice even for that short time to see him with out it though. It's amazing, when in this situation, what you find to be a blessing. Those nine days were very joyous for me. I cried when his breathing wasn't improving and they had to intubate him again. I always felt that with every couple steps forward we always took a step back. Now I just look at things like we're standing in line, we go forward then we stop and rock back and forth, swaying a little bit, but eventually the line moves and we go forward once again. (Of course some of us 'rock' for a long time) LOL!!!
