I've got no strings to hold me down...

This picture was taken this morning. Then this afternoon I turned off his oxygen and we went to the doctor to check his oxygen saturation. For two hours we watched and... he passed! We took the nose tube canula & the sticky cheek patch thingy's off! Also he's been gaining weight great and now weighs 8 pounds 2 ounces.

It is so fun to carry him around without lugging & balancing the oxygen tank or changing his clothes is a little easier but most of all it's fun to see all of his cute face.

He's so very sweet! I bet he'll be so happy to not worry about oxygen anymore too! Are you planning to go to our 10 year reunion at the end of this month?
