Update on the boys:
Crew - Crew is living 20 minutes away from us. Last night my doctor pulled some strings and allowed me to leave the hospital for a few hours to go visit him. After arriving at the other hospital, he started rapidly improving. He has been breathing on his own since Sunday afternoon and has been eating like a champion. His weight has been slowly increasing and while they were worried about his blood sugar, yesterday all of his tests came out at good levels. He isn't hooked up to anything except monitors and is expected to be released in the next day or two as long as nothing changes. We joke that he pretended to be not doing well because he wanted to try out flying in a helicopter.

Cooper - Cooper is sleepy all the time. He has the most adorable yawns and loves to keep his eyes closed. Because of this, he has decided that sleeping is more fun than eating and is struggling to meet his weight and food goals. He has a cute new accessory tube that goes from his nose to his stomach so that any time he refuses to eat they can just put it in his stomach for him. Until he decides he wants to eat enough on his own, he gets to live in the hospital so we are praying he starts liking meal time a little more.
