Cant believe he is 4 months old today!!! Seriously December seems like such a long time ago. Over the last week Carter has made huge improvements. When he tired out on trach collar last week they started him doing 6 hours on trach collar 2 hours on CPAP vent for him to rest and recover. They did that for two days then went to 10 on collar 2 on vent and then 11 on collar and 1 on vent. Then on Sunday he got switched to full time trach collar. He is doing so great. His gas this morning was the best that it has been since surgery so we were very happy to see that. His Doctors were also. So happy in fact that they are sending us home on MONDAY!!! I can't even begin to fathom what it will be like. I can't wait for Boston to meet Carter. He seriously talks about him all day. Speaking of Boston he was telling me the other day that Carter will say..... to him I don't remember what it was, but I told him that Carter has a owie in his neck and he can't make any noise or cry or talk. He got very sad and said, "but how will he talk to me" I just told him that we will figure it out and that we can watch his face to see if he is happy or sad. A couple minutes later he came to me all excited and said "I have an idea I can teach Carter my Baby Signing times things" he then decided he needed to watch signing times to practice. Probably the cutest thing ever!
Anyways happy 4 months little man you are absolutely amazing and we can't wait for you to come home!
