Jacob got a little view of some snow on the 5th, but that was nothing compared to what is coming tonight! Before it is all said and done with, there is supposed to be 12 to 20 inches of snow. That amount of snow is so rare around here that the atmosphere is almost one of mass hysteria. It's just snow folks and here's a little tip.... it doesn't all come down at one time! You've got at least a
couple of minutes before you chance getting snowed in for days without any milk, bread, toilet paper or batteries. But I digress....
Jacob's 9 month well baby visit was on Friday, December 11. He was 29.75 inches tall (90th percentile), 20 pounds, 10.5 ounces (50th percentile) and his head was 46.5 cm (85th percentile). My boy is long and lean with a big melon. (Are we surprised? Look at the noggin on his old man!) Developmentally he is either right on track or a little ahead (he gets that from his mommy). The only real thing we are working on right now is sleep. Jacob won't fall asleep on his own- we have to rock/hold him. We've gotten some pointers and (if you know me this wont surprise you) we've ordered some books recommended by our pediatrician. Keep your fingers crossed for us.
Lastly, we had to take JD to STAR Cranial today for another helmet adjustment. He was just in on the 9th and wasn't scheduled to return for 3 weeks, but he was getting some red spots that weren't going away. Laura couldn't believe how much he has grown since the 9th and made the necessary adjustments. We now have a much happier boy.
So- it is currently 8:15 p.m. The snow is supposed to start around 9:00 p.m. I wonder if we have enough toilet paper?????
