6 wks. plus post op

This past Friday was six weeks from surgery. Wow. Jerry is doing really well. He is eating better...maybe a little better every few days. He did catch a cold recently, as careful as we are trying to be. Colds and viruses can be a much bigger deal for him than for other kids. So far, he seems fine except for not drinking or eating well because of the congestion. Actually, we are so happy to have a "normal cold." If he is not completely better in a few days we will bring him in to get checked, which we have to do by Friday for a weight check anyway. He is sleeping pretty well, but still wakes up a few times to drink an ounce or two of formula.

A few cute videos. When we wouldn't give Jerry his walker toys and he wasn't supposed to be that active yet, he started using this other toy as a walker. Now he is allowed to go and he is! He is taking 7 to 8 steps several times a day. He seems to stop when he realizes he is walking alone. It is really fun and amazing to see him like this from where he was six weeks ago! Thanks everyone!
