He's still really good, but he's waking up in the middle of the night alot like a normal baby now.
Also we had to take him to the children's hospital in Kansas City on Monday evening. Jordan noticed his chest was caving in alot when he breathed, so at his bilirubin check (that's okay now) she had a nurse look at it. She said it wasn't normal and so the doctor ordered a chest x-ray, he didn't like how it looked and told us to get him up the city as soon as we could. That's a nearly two-hour drive, so we didn't get there until after 6pm, then we waited in a private waiting room (since he was so young) for another 2 hours. Then Jordan and I were sent to a curtained off area in the ER, where we waited another two hours. Finally, after another X-ray, we were told that, despite his birth size, he was probably a bit premature and his chest muscles weren't quite developed.
Thankfully, it's nothing serious and will correct itself as he gets stronger. It already isn't as bad as it was. We had to drive home in the middle of the night, in the worst rainstorm I've ever been in (there was a tornado around my town that night) but that was okay as long as he was going to be fine.
