Jacob likes to sleep with his hands up like this. He looks so peaceful.
Every night at 9:00, the nurse weighs him. Here we found out that he's 3 lbs. 11.1 oz. He was very fussy during the weigh in b/c he was so hungry. He finished his bottle in about 15 minutes afterwards.
Can you figure out what happened in this picture? You're right! They took him out of his isolette and put him into an open crib. I was soooo happy! Now, I have to get used to changing his diaper vertically instead of horizontally like before. =)
This is the beautiful scenery that we've missed over the past couple of weeks. Now that he's in an open crib, we'll be able to see across the room. (His crib is the one with the pooh cover.)
Here he is so comfortable sleeping on his dad. Actually, they both fell asleep when I read, The Cat in the Hat. They are both so cute! Tonight, Jacob finished his bottle in less than 15 minutes and burped very well. He's doing so much better during feeding. He's not desatting like he used to. Nurse Sharon taught us a feeding technic and since then, his saturation level has been in the upper 90's and even 100. He now weighs 3 lbs. 12.9. He hasn't had any A's and B's since the 8th. Often times...well, all of the time, I get really worried even though Jacob has made progress. Today, I realized I needed to count my blessings and trust that Heavenly Father has a great and marvelous plan for Jacob. Each day, we marvel at all of the things he is able to do for a little guy like him. He continues to amaze us!

Ahh..the love of a father. This picture just captures how much love Jeremy has for Jacob. I just see it in his expression. Hooray for Jacob for graduation to a crib. He was just ready to get outta there! Soon, he will be at home with you and you'll never want to do anything else but hear him breathe and watch him sleep! Give him a big'o kiss and hug for us!
