Jack is slowly recovering. He still has his anderson tube in his mouth and we are waiting for his stomach to clear out so he can eat. But, things are moving faster and he might be able to start eating later in the week - that's the hope at least. :) The little guy will be 2 weeks old tomorrow. Can you believe it?
Mostly I just try to show up to the hospital without any expectations. Just the desire to cuddle my baby and hope for good news. Our sweet doctor came and found me this morning as I was scrubbing up so excited to tell me that Jack's tube was turned to "down-drain". She has been so great to call and update us. We are going to miss her, as she is switching to a new rotation tomorrow. 
Tyson gets to be another week with the Grandparents. He is starting to act a little put out with us and I hope that he can bounce back quickly when we all go home. He keeps asking if he can go to pre-school and I keep reminding him that he can when his brother's stomach is fixed and we all go home. Over all, we are doing as great as can be. Dusty goes home for the week days and comes up to see me for the weekends. Hopefully by the end of this week I'll have more good news to share!
Until then, take care everyone!

Your boys are SOOO cute, Jess! Those first two pictures of both of them ... wow! I would be completely smitten as a mother too!
Thanks for keeping us all updated. I hope that it continues to go well for you and that you can come home soon. (((hugs))
I am so glad things are going well for you all. He really is a beautiful babe!
Yay, Jess! We just spent the last 4 days in ICU with Maliah (Kawasaki Disease) and just got home today. There were times I thought I would have a complete mental breakdown! I had a quick, eye-opening experience about what it is like to have a sick child and mostly feel helpless. I didn't realize how emotionally and mentally draining it all is. Much love and prayers to you and Dusty.
Oh what a little sweetheart Jack is. Conner saw the last picture of Tyson and was say "Hi Tyson!!" to the computer.
You all take care too and we hope to hear from you soon.
hairy! mostly I didn't realize your hair was that long and that Jack had that much hair. like it's styled even! he looks like such a little dude. like he looks so much like you guys already and reminds me of my own babies in some ways. cute.
