A "wet" baby

Jules put it best, I think, describing Reunan as a "wet" baby. He doesn't seem to have GIRD (gastrointestinal reflux disorder) or to be particularly gassy or uncomfortable. He simply spits up alot more than Saul ever did! Reunan is able to lay flat on his back and sleep all night, but all day long there's anywhere from dribbles to explosions of milk. My favorite new sound is that of spit up splattering on a hard surface. SPLAT!

So, in the spirit of spit up clean up, below is a sample of the additional burp clothes now scattered throughout the house. I bought enough fabric to make 2 or 3 in each. Thank you, Jill Oshel Brouillard for the burp clothes you made when Saulwas born. We confirmed how much we love this style! And, thank you, Suzi Oshel Ryerson for posting the instructions on how to make these burp clothes. We love them!

Note: none of these are perfectly rectanguler or the same size. They were made quickly and efficiently with end use in mind: absorbing baby spit ups and being soft and eye catching for baby. Notice the little homage to Tillamook in the far right pattern. :)
