Relaxing

Gus is five weeks old! Hard to believe that mommy goes back for her 6 week check up on Monday. Today is also daddy's birthday. Gus is really excited for the Dairy Queen ice cream cake mommy got daddy for tonight (mommy may have to break her diet for a slice!). But mommy is finally out of maternity clothes! Yay! Only 15 pounds to go- sounds like a lot yes, but when you gain 55 during pregnancy 15 pounds to go doesn't sounds too bad... LOL...

This week we got day care for the fall lined up. We were able to find a part time in home provider for a pretty reasonable rate. He starts on August 18th. It is crazy how expensive day care is! And the hospital bills starting coming this week from when Gus was born- we don't know what people without insurance would do.

Here is a pic of the little man sleeping in his crib right now- finally! We started having Gus sleep in his crib this week. It has worked out nicely, especially for the parent NOT getting up for the middle of the night feeding. Gus has also been a little sick this week. He must have picked up something on his trip last weekend to Iowa. Mommy has been dealing with a crying and constantly pooping baby for two days. She is glad Gus is finally starting to feel better and sleep more and cry less today.

Papa Dillavou is on his way to Kansas City right now. He will be helping daddy with the basement for the next few days. Nama and the Spratts will be here tonight. We are so sad the Spratts are moving to St. Louis next week! We miss them already!

Hopefully after this weekend we will have lots of pictures to post. Miss you all and can't wait to see you over the Fourth of July!
