Moving to Chidren's Hospital!

Today, Scott got a wonderful birthday present -- the call from the pulmonologist saying they have approved Jules to move to Children's and the best news -- based on the current oxygen requirement Jules has, the pulmonologist would be cautiously optomistic and say that instead of months more in the hospital, it may be as little as a month! Yey!
Scott is going to attend rounds tomorrow and find out what UW is doing about finding Jules a room/bed at Children's and when they think we will make the move. We are pretty excited. We will be able to visit him together as a family at Children's, sleep on the extra bed in his room, get him the kinds of physical and occupational therapy he needs, and have him seen by the pulmonologists every day!

Also - Jules is up 100 grams today to 2853 grams or about 6 pounds 4 ounces. This could be a sign of taking on fluid. 
Length - He is  up 2 centimeters from 43.4 to 45.4  in length.
Head circumference: He is up .5 centimeters from 34.5 to 35.
