Praise God from whom all blessings flow!!
Ethan has been extubated! The team came in around 5:00 this afternoon, and by 5:15 he was breathing on his own :) The tubes and machine are gone and he's left with only a nasal canula that's providing a little bit of oxygen. Jeramie and I just spent some time kissing all over his sweet face. I was expecting to walk in and hear that raspy cry, but he is sleeping soundly. We've taken a lot of pictures of his new look, and I'll be sure to get those posted as soon as I can.
THANK YOU for your prayers. God is SO good! Continue to pray hard. The night isn't over yet, and he still has to prove that he can do this; we believe he can! Stay tuned....

Hurray for the exit of the tube and all the STUFF that kept you from being able to really kiss on your little man. I am sure you can't get enough of that sweet little face!!!! Praying...
Should we ever be surprised when God answers our prayers? I prayed specifically as you asked today as I ready your post. I rejoice with you and Jeramie and praise His holy name. Jesus heard and answered the many prayers that continue to be lifted for Ethan, you, and Jeramie. Prais God from whom all blessings flow!!
