January 7th - Day 6th

Day 6th, January 7th, 2008

Skyler is doing much better. He is still in NICU but the doctor said he is breathing much better. As he progress, the doctor will take his air flow tube out so he will breath on his own. He is also digesting Erica's milk well. He will soon be of IV as he gets stronger.

We hold him the first time on day 4. Sklyer was able to sleep on our chest and he likes it very much. His sleep like Erica, with both of his arms up in the air or over his head. He also kicks when he sleep. Erica and I spend time in the hospital visiting Sklyer when we have time.

A lot of our families and friends are very supportive and understanding. Once we are physically and emotionally settles, we can have guests. This way, Baby Skyler can meet his new friends.

We learned a lot over the last few days. Sometime life situation happens and take you unexpectedly. We decide to focus on our time and energy on how we could make it better for tomorrow, there wasn't much time to figure out what happened or how it happened. Every hour we spend with Sklyer meant a lot to us as we see other babies was able to go home with their parents. There are times when we don't want to leave the hospital so we can spend more time with him. Sometimes we take our family and friends for granted and forgotten how important those time together can be. More importantly, Erica had be very strong as she trying to recovery from the C-section and spend her energy on Skyler. I'll make sure Baby Sklyer will remember as he grows up.

Oh, call your mother once a while. They did a lot for us when we were kids.
