My little brother was born on Sunday February 24th, 2008. He was 4lbs 10 oz and 18 inches long. His name is Alex Ruben. He was born early at 34 weeks so Mom says he has to stay at the hospital until he gets a little bigger and can breath better. I can't go see him because I'm too little.....so not fair. Mom can't get any pictures uploaded from the hospital. Her card is too big to fit in Grandma's computer and with the snowstorm we got today Papi didn't go up to see her and Alex to bring her cord for the camera.

Alex has started getting small feedings every 3 hours by his feeding tube. He is digesting some of it but not all. Hopefully things will begin moving soon for him. They decided to leave him on the CPAP for one more day. Maybe tomorrow they will move him to the smaller oxygen tubes to that Mom can hold him! And so Alex can move his head! He has a reputation in the NICU for having a temper.....so watch out! He will scream until he turns blue and has every monitor going off!
