Marlin's baby

Marlin works with a couple therapists and this one brought a baby doll for him to play with.  This is his first experience with a "baby", but he knew what to do.

3rd Race

Gus did great and came in 4th place.  So did Daddy, he came in 1st place.  Marlin and I enjoyed watching the boys.  Gus worked on getting "some air" this weekend.  It was impressive by Sunday he was a good 8-10 inches off the ground.

Here are just a few random pictures.  Enjoy!

Reading Time

Marlin loves to be read to and Gus has taken to "reading" to him.  Gus can't read yet, but he knows all the stories and makes the details up as he goes along.  It is really sweet.

Mr. Universe

Gus has been working on his muscle.  He has a work out routine and everything.  Here he is showing the results of those efforts.

Mr. Fix It

Marlin may not be able to ride it yet, but he is getting to know the engine.

Jumping with Uncle Chris

Uncle Chris is one of my assistants and Gus just loves him for many reasons, but mostly because he can jump so high.  These pictures show the two of them practicing jumping.

Pulleys

Grandma Judy gave Gus a book about how things work.  He learned about pulleys and wanted one.  So she gave him and he has been using it for all sorts of things.

Happy Marlin

These are not the greatest quality pictures, but they make me smile seeing this little guy so happy go lucky.  We do not take it for granted, we know this story could have had a very different ending.  We thank God every day for what he has given us.
