not settled yet

Molly visiting the cows on the farm where her dad works.

We are going a little crazy: Matt's down on the farm in Cape working and staying there. The kids are at Grandpa's fishing, playing games, and chilling out. Gus, Molly, Aunt Deborah and I are all here left to try to sort out the kinks of moving, clean the house, and pack some more. Both babies really miss the kids and are giving us adults the hardest time they can. So, with lots of coffee, chocolate, and ice cream, we've survived this past week.

Tomorrow night, our help arrives!

Quick update on Gus: he is doing great. He is improving in small ways that add up to a lot. We've taken him again to see Chad, the ABM practitioner here in St. Louis and the difference is fantastic. Gus is starting to move his arms, hands, and really, his whole body in new and better ways. He isn't rolling over yet, but getting closer. Another big plus for us- his medicine is getting reduced more and more.

Molly is almost running around the house, keeping us on our toes as she runs away carrying everything with her.

Ian, George, and Rose are all having a great time visiting at Grandpa's. They all have a bad case of poison ivy and it rained all week long but they have reassured me that the games and movies more than made up for the bad weather and rash.

He took the children in his arms, put his hands on them and blessed them. ~Mark 10:16, speaking of Jesus
