On Thursday, Noah finally got his new braces. They are super cool with dinosaurs on the middle strap. He needs to wear them 23 hours a day (we can take them off for bath time) until he starts to cruise around. He doesn't mind them too much. The first night he was a bit fussy, but he is now quite used to them. It is funny to watch him kick his legs around while lying down...when he kicks one, the other leg follows.You can see Noah's black and white leads between his legs. Whenever he is asleep or in the car we plug him into an apnea monitor that records his heart rate and breathing rate. Because he cannot cry or tell us if there is a problem with his trach (plugged or fell out) the monitor makes sure he is always breathing. I love asking Kc, "Did you plug Noah in?", whenever we get in the car.

You are on a roll now! I tell you, the Jackson family should be called the "Trooper Family" with the way you all adjust so seamlessly to every new addition to your routine. What a testament to God's love and grace in your lives! And...when Noah is old enough for skiing/snowboarding, he is going to feel right at home with the boots :-) Go Team Noah!! We are always praising and praying. XXXOOO
ReplyDeleteThe new braces are the most super-cool thing I've ever seen! Noah, if we get to these all-electric cars, you'll be ready to plug yourself in and go for miles!
ReplyDeleteI love his new kicks! He looks like a snowboarder. I bet he will love that sport and be really good at it when he is older.
