I wanted to let you know that Gus did good again on 'walking' today. It was really hard work for him - he was so tired and who, on a rainy, gray, St. Louis day can blame him? (Our dog, Jack, however, is anything BUT tired. We just got him back the other day - a big THANK YOU to James and Heidi for taking care of him this past year.) Here's a few pictures of us on such a sleepy-ish day.
Gus is doing well this past week. The more we do with him, the more he wants to do. He is learning to play with blocks, picking them up and letting them go (into a loud, noisy tin). He is still eating well, enjoying food. We offer him food every 2 hours and he often eats about 1/4 cup. We'll try to keep him gaining lots of weight so that the dietician will let us give less formula.
The rest of the family is doing well. This week we were visited by a fever but it wasn't too bad, especially since Gus stayed healthy. Thank you for your prayers. Please pray that Gus moves purposefully, with clear control and that he learns to communicate with us (and please pray as well, that we learn to understand him better) to reduce frustration for him.
Hi All,
ReplyDeleteWe've been away for the last 3 weeks so it's great to come home and see your postings. Sorry to hear about the sickness but so glad to hear about the progress. Molly sure looks like a Lockerby! What a cutie!
Missing you and loving you,
Adrienne and Paul
