 Gus likes to hang out on the living room floor and look around. There are a lot of cool patterns for him to focus on. |
 Gus isn't always perfectly happy. When he is really hungry or his tummy hurts he can scream as well as the rest of them... |
 Good friend Steve Beyer came over for a visit and was thrilled to get a little Gus time. Gus seems really comfortable with others and has an easy time transitioning from person to person. |
 Deb and Chuck Wiggins brought over an awesome dinner last week. Here is Deb cuddling with Gus. |
Gus had another eye check and a weigh in this past week. His left eye is all clear after the laser surgery - his right eye still has one spot that is getting better. We return on Tuesday of this week for another check. Gus is over 7 lbs too - he is gaining weight as expected. Due to his reflux the doctor reduced his formula concentration and we no longer have to fortify breast milk before he eats. That seems to have helped his stomach feel a little better.
It was a great father's day - I got to hang out with Gus quite a bit and had a call from my other kids today too. They are excited to come and spend time with their baby brother soon.
One Day At A Time,
Gregg, Jill and Gus

How awesome to hear all the news about Gus! We think of you guys on a daily basis and miss seeing you guys as well. I keep telling the nurses that you were right Jill in that these last few weeks are rough. I now understand what you were talking about. We were so excited to get to Graduate and then we were so frustrated with Kenyon trying to take the bottle. His homecoming seems so close yet so far away. We keep reminding ourselves of your journey and your words of encouragement! We love the new pictures--We hope to sometime bring you supper soon--our treat:) Wonderful to hear you are all well--The Kill's
Looks like you all are doing great. Gus is so big. I missed your departure from the unit but I'm happy to hear he's doing so well! Stephanie, RN
The images are great. There is just one thing missing. Where are the pictures of you and Gus, being that it was Father's Day and all?
We are so excited when there is new Gus news! I hope all is well and you are getting some sleep. We were until our trip to Florida and 4 month vaccinations - up every two hours again at night. This week begins the transition to Braden's "Big Crib" and trying to get some type of a nap routine down. One thing I can say about parenthood is that it is a big lesson in flexibility. I hope you are staying flexible, well rested and happy!
