daily work



Each day we have Gus stand in his stander, sit in his sitting frame, play with some toys, try some food (usually pudding at this point) and practice rolling over with belly time. His muscles, since the chicken pox (and a huge growth spurt) have been harder for him to control so he fights everything a lot more, even if he doesn't want to fight it. We might need to increase some of the medicine that calms those muscles down so that he can have more control. Here are the latest pictures of him.Please continue to pray for Gus. He has a hard time sleeping again and continues to lose control of his body temperature (sweats a lot, over heats, or gets really cold regardless of air temperature).

For those of you who are interested, I thought I'd post the latest our older children have learned in pottery (with their Aunt Deborah). They recently had a show-n-tell for Matt and I:

  1. I'm praying for you guys. It must be so frustrating to go through these setbacks after such steady improvement.

    I'm jealous that Paul & Adrienne will get to see you this week! I hope you have a wonderful time together.

    The pottery is BEAUTIFUL! I'm so impressed!

  2. Dear Lockerby Family-

    Great to get the updates. So sorry Fergus had the setback with the Chicken Pox. He looks great and so big and I love to see him smiling. I wonder if the kids pottery is for sale? LOL! They are beautiful! Wishing you all a very Merry Christmas. Know that the Buckner bunch is still praying for you all.

    With Love,
    Jared, Bobbie (me), Abigail, Eliza, and Andrew
