Still working towards no tube...

Well, Jack still has the feeding tube - we had hoped we had a breakthrough last Sunday...he took about 150mL by bottle(5 ounces).  That was huge for him, so we thought he had gotten over the 'hump' when it came to feeding.  Monday, we were back to the norm of fighting the bottle.  The only difference we can figure is that he had pulled his tube out on Sunday, so we were attempting the bottle without the tube.  Of course, we had to put the tube back in on Sunday night.  We are considering taking the tube out and giving him the option of only taking the bottle on Saturday and see how well he does.  We don't know if it is for sure but maybe without the tube he'll do much better - keep your fingers crossed!

Outside of working on feeding, we've been working on crawling - Jack can definitely sit up and reach for his toys, he'll get into a quadriped position to head to a crawl and then promptly roll onto his back!  What a goof ball!  I am sure he's close to crawling, so we are just going to keep working on it! 

We found out last week, Jack is going to have a girl cousin!!  Aunt Marianne and Uncle Steve are having a little girl and we are thrilled!!
