Dylan has finally broken the 4 lb milestone! As of today he is 4 lbs 2 ounces. It took awhile for him to get back to his birth weight but ever since he's been putting on about an ounce a day. This is great news because if he keeps this up he'll be 5 lbs in about 2 weeks which is one of the milestones he has to hit before we can take him home.
They have taken the caffeine away and unhooked the monitor that monitors his breathing. I didn't eve know they did that since Jacob was hooked up to it until we took him home and then he was hooked up to a home apnea monitor. The doctor told me that they think that by the end of next week they will be able to move him out of the isolate into a bassinet. The doctors keep telling us how great he's doing and that we'll be able to take home a healthy baby boy.
We also finally celebrated Jacob's 2nd birthday yesterday. My little man is growing up! He was pretty good about sharing all of his toys, we had a couple of moments where it looked like a fight would break out with one of the other boys but it all worked out. Since it was his birthday I also let Jacob eat all of the junk food he wanted. He was up until 10 pm hopped up on sugar but boy did he sleep well once he crashed. He didn't make a peep all night.
