Jake is off the CPAP!!

When I went in this morning they were taking that cumbersome thing off him and putting on a nasal cannula - he looks so much more comfortable, and had his eyes open and was looking around! Of course I forgot my camera- grrr! Oh well, there will be plenty more opportunities to get a good picture of him. He did, however, have a few dropped heart-rates while I was there- the cannula is making him work a little harder than the CPAP. But the nurses said they weren't worried. We'll hope that he keeps getting stronger!!

Current Weights:
Eddie and Mary Beth: 3 lbs, 5 oz.
Jake: 2 lbs, 14 oz. (he's on his way to 3!)
