We saw a new doctor today! We were excited to switch pediatricians. We have heard really good things about Dr. McKenna, and we had a really good visit with him. Hayden weighs 17 lb. 4 oz. now and is 27 inches long! He's a big boy. The doctor put him on a new medicine for his reflux and said that he has had a lot of success with the combination of medicine he will be taking. He said there is really not much we can do about the constant spitting up though. He said it's nothing to worry about because he really is thriving and going up in his percentile. I guess it's just a laundry problem. He got the doctor and his stethoscope pretty good too. He told us to start giving him some Gerber puffs so he could work on his pincher grasp. I gave him one when we got home and he had the funniest face! He is not a fan. I will have to post a video of it later. He is a big healthy boy and we are so grateful for that!
On to Rocky!

What are gerber puffs and what is a pincher grasp?
Gerber puffs are little puffy things that look like cereal but they dissolve faster and they're softer. Pinches grasp is when they start picking up things with their fingers instead of their whole hand.
Precious! I love your blog and Hayden is adorable. I'm happy he's growing and so healthy.
See you very soon.
Love ya!
