Here Hudson is sitting on our "bed" watching his Baby Einstein video. 
Hudson's best buddy, Ethan, and mommy came to visit us. Hudson absolutely loved having another kid around to talk to and play with. Hudson says, please come visit! If you want to bring your kid up here that is okay as long as they don't have the slightest cold or anything that they might pass along to Hudson. 
Hudson decided that he doesn't have sea legs anymore. I put him down to try to gradually start standing and he took off! (The bag you see is his chest tube that is draining. Pray that the drainage starts to slow so Hudson can get it taken out hopefully tomorrow.)Backing up to last night...We had a good night. Hudson slept from 10:15 until 4:00 am. He was sound asleep while they would come in and take his blood pressure and temp and give him meds. Then they decided at 4:00 am that needed to get his weight! Are they crazy?!?! Let the poor baby and his mommy and daddy sleep! From 4:00 to 9:00 am we rotated between rocking in the chair, cuddling in the bed with us (a twin size bed), and watching our video. Hudson's appetite hasn't been the greatest today, but he is eating. Dr. Salazar said that Hudson should get his chest tube out tomorrow and maybe that a few days later we will be going home! We are reminded daily how blessed we have been and are during this process. Please continue to lift Hudson up for strength, healing, and a good night sleep!
Also, please continue to pray for Cate, Charlie, Alli and their families. There are at the beginning of a long journey.

Another happy day - Thanks be to God.

What a trooper!!! He looks great. I am so happy for you guys, it sounds like he made it through like a real champ! I'm sure it has been difficult for all of you. Get plenty of rest, you all certainly need it. We would stop by, but Dillon may have a bit of a cold, so we sent balloons instead! I have so many people praying for y'all, Cate, and Brad. We will continue to do so!
I'm at a loss for words! When I saw the pictures and read about Hudson's status.... I couldn't believe it! Oh "me" of little faith!
We are so very thankful for God's blessings on Hudson and his amazing recovery.
Hudson, Cate and Brad continue to be in our prayers. Love you guys...David & Jana
