6 months of spit-up: our survival story


wow! can't believe jacob is already 6 months! he saw the Dr for his 6 month check-up on tuesday. Dr said he's looking good- 18 pounds 10 oz (75th percentile for his age) and 28 inches long (95th percentile). he was still not concerned with jacob's vast and never-ending quantities of spit-up, but wrote jacob an Rx for infant Zantac. we just started the doses last night....keeping our fingers crossed! while we know this won't completely diminish the spit-up, we are hoping and praying for it to reduce the amount and frequency.




jacob's aunt rachael and aunt joanna came to visit this weekend (and cousin Bo for a short while). the girls adored jacob and had a blast making him smile.




aunt joanna was inducted into the spit-up hall of fame.



they got to visit the museum and see jesse's handiwork.



aunt rachael bought jacob his first pair of chuck taylors- which we finally got the right size to fit his fat feet. jacob seems to really like his new kicks...he couldnt keep his eyes off of them.
