Just before they switched him over, Cindy was changing his diaper... and projectile poop ALL OVER the inside of the incubator... "well I guess he's coming out for sure now!" was what the nurse said!
He's been off the cpap for a week and a half and on a low-flow nasal cannula. He's now over 4 pounds 1 ounce! Cindy changed his diaper tonight and he was farting all over her hand.
the next task for him (and the final task for all intents and purposes) is the learning how to eat. he hasn't even started that yet - but will in the next few days.
From our perspective (doing this once before) we can definitely see the light at the end of the tunnel.
to give you a reference:
Isaac was never on a ventilator, but was on the CPAP for 40 days - Jonah was on both for about 25 days.
Isaac was in an isolette for 40 days - Jonah for 34
isaac started working on his bottle at 40 days and Jonah will start soon.
here's some shots of the lad in his new digs:

He is getting so big! He looks very healthy! I feel like it's only been a week or two since he was born. I guess living away from each other does that. I am so happy that he is doing well.
Ah yes, Scott and his weekly poop stories...
