Yes, its been 4 months since I have blogged. Summer always keeps me busy.
Adam is 5 months old today. At age 5 weeks, he was diagnosed with Reflux and has been on Zantac since. It does stop the pain, although it doesn't stop the amount of spit up and man, does that boy spit up all the time! At 3 months, he was diagnosed with Tortcollis and Plagiocephaly. Torticollis is tightening of the neck muscles and Plagiocephaly is a flat spot resulting from only being able to turn the neck one way. He was fitted with a helmet on July 20th, and although he hated it at first, he seems to be just fine in it now...and it's super cute on him as well!
He should only have to wear it another 3 months, hopefully less! He started out with one helmet guy, but while he was on vacation, we had an unplanned visit in due to Adam's eczema and really liked the new guy, Ethan, so we switched to him! Here he is with Adam:
Aside from the helmet, Adam is doing well. Teething at the moment, as all 4 bottom teeth are trying to come thru, but he is doing really well. Not rolling over yet, not even showing and interest, but he is a happy baby most of the time and loves his big sisters to bits! Now if only I could get him over the suck to sleep association and realize that he doesn't need to eat 2 times in the middle of the night anymore....
Victoria is doing well! Nearly 3 1/2 now. Growing like a weed! Wearing size 5/6 clothing and is so super tall. She has such an imagination and talks nonstop. She is the bright spot in any day for me and I just love this child to bits! Her hair is growing long again, but no talk of cutting it yet. Too cute, right?
Maddy is looking forward to seeing her friends when school starts back up in 4 weeks (where did the summer go?!?!?!) and got 12 inches chopped off her hair earlier this summer. It's adorable and alot easier for her to manage!
Before:
After:

Andrew had his first dentist visit last week, when he had a wisdom tooth extracted. It had a hole in it and has been bothering him on and off for 2 years so he finally had it removed! And no more pain YAY!
Aside from all of that, not much going on! Enjoying the last few weeks of summer!

Oh Adam is such a little doll!! He is so big...and he looks a little like Victoria!
We had severe reflux issues and Claire had torticollis too...we were lucky enough to catch it early and fix the "flat spot" with stretching and positioning techniques instead of a helmet. But, I have to say, he looks pretty darn cute in his helmet...like a future football star! LOL. Glad to hear from you!
Thanks Sarah!!! I forgot you read my blog! I didn't update for awhile, thinking everyone that reads it is on my facebook anyway! Do you have a Facebook?????
Adam is a whopping 18 lbs already and wearing 18-24 month clothes.
