Today is Dad's Birthday! 🥳 He flew out Thursday night for New Jersey to spend the weekend with his family. It was basically a family reunion due to everyone being reunited across the country for graduation parties. 🎓

Today was also a very special day for James since he received his first haircut 💇🏻‍♂️ by our family friend who has her own salon in her home. We also went to his first fancy restaurant, Seasons 52! 🍽️ Between Mom, Aunt Robin and Juju we took about a million pictures during his haircut along with video. He was such a good boy and sat still the entire time! We think that it was because he was in a new place and had all sorts of things to look at. Got to meet his first cat face to face but since he had not had a nap yet for the day he was pretty exhausted. Before we went to our dinner reservation we stopped back at the house to relieve the dogs and to charge up some of James's equipment. It was only 112° outside. 🥵

The last photo is Mom's first hair cut! 💇🏻‍♀️💈✂️



P.S. You can email James your love and support as often as you’d like. Mom and Dad read these email to James as they come in. We all love them! JamesWestonAbramowitz@gmail.com

The great news is that James is now officially off oxygen completely! Also, we have worked with our GI team and the school nurses for them to be able to administer G-tube feeds at school, so he can stay a full day! It's so important to take the time to celebrate the wins because with a medically complex kid, there is always something to be working on! 👍🏻 From ventilator weaning to stopping the ventilator completely, to scheduling decannulation, to getting the trach stoma closed, to graduating from a GJ to a G-tube, to getting off of oxygen... It feels never-ending! That is just the medical side of it. There are also those normal things like walking, talking, eating... James has done great with those as well and cognitively he is acing everything! I recently saw a post from John Israel talking about perpetual dis...

Ella at 4, 5, and 6 months (and some extras)! Wow time is flying by because in 2 weeks she'll already be 7 months! 😱 She is such an easy baby! I don't mean because there isn't medical stuff because James was soo good too. Ella is just so chill. She can hang. Always smiley and content. Currently she has been making James laugh so hard! It is the best thing ever and one of these days I'll get it on video. James continues to be so sweet with her and I'd love for this to last forever!🤞🏻🤣 Soo much to update! Life has been great! If I ever find some time I would love to! ✌🏻❤️
