Gus still does the cute stretch from time to time in the mornings when I undo his burrito. Today he was sleeping late, so I had to wake him up so I could get going to work....so I was ready for it :)
I didn't realize how shadowy the video was til now. Oh well.

Good timing
This isn't the most exciting video, I was just pleased that I caught it so easily. Gus was hanging out on the floor, and rolling from side to side, so I figured I'd get out the video recorder just in case he decided to roll over. And 30 seconds later, he did! Pardon the loud tv in the background....Kevin was watching tv....
And I should mention this is only the second time I've witnessed him roll from back to front, and the 4th time total he has done so. The first two times he was in his crib in the morning.

Busy busy busy
We've been busy! I'll try to recap the most interesting things we've been up to.
Gus was baptized on the 8th at my family's church in Grantfork. It was a nice service, and Carole (the organist) had some special music for us, so it was really nice.
us and Gus's godparents (Jackie and Allen)

My mom made Gus's outfit.....the bottom part of it was made from leftover fabric from my wedding dress. It was so cute and perfect!
Grandma Plocher (aka great grandma) made Gus's cake - so cute!
I played hookey from work one afternoon last week and we went to the zoo. This is the only picture I took. This is a statue, but for some reason everyone kept asking me if it was a real elephant?
Gus had his 4 month checkup last week - he weighs 17lb 3oz (90th percentile!!!!) and is 25.5 inches long. He's huge! We started trying to give him rice cereal....so far not going so well. But we'll keep trying.
This weekend we had a playdate with my friend Lindzy's little boy, Joey. He was born Sept 4, so he's about 2 months younger than Gus. He has the cutest hair ever!!!

Gus has also started rolling lately, both front to back and back to front. Here, I had put out a blanket for Gus to do tummy time on, and then Satchel laid on it right away. So I put Gus on his belly right next to Satchel, but he almost immediately started rolling over.....
The end result.....
Gus is still loving the exersaucer!!
There's lots of other stuff going on, but its time to hit the road and try to beat the worst of the traffic in the rain.....

Halloween, etc
Oy, its been a busy few weeks. Sorry I haven't posted in awhile....I was at two scientific meetings that went for eight straight days, during which I wasn't on my computer at all....then this weekend Jenny and family came to town. So I haven't had much downtime. On top of all that, I've had the longest lasting cold ever which is finally taking its toll on me. But anyway, here's some pictures. A video of Gus in his exersaucer coming soon.....

Uncle Kevin and John
At City Garden
Grandma trying to help John jump hard enough to make these bells ring (like a keyboard in the ground, kind of....)
Gus passed out on our bed with Lucy (and his cow blanket)
Gus the elephant, minus the elephant head.....I just think this is a good picture of me, which never happens.
Gus the elephant in all his glory!! Aunt Jackie made him the most amazing costume ever!
Jenny and bumblebee John
Gus smiling again!
