Growth Stats

I took both kiddos to the doc last week. Andrew had his initial consult with his doc to establish care and go over history and Carter needed his 6 mo check and shots. After 2 long hours in the office and going over medical records it was time to get stats and do shots. Andrew got two shots, one in each leg. He hasn’t had a shot in about a year so he was devastated. Carter got two as well, one in each leg. He was pretty sad too; he was tired, hungry, and then got poked!

DSCN5650 Andrew – 35 months (almost 3 years old!)

  • Weight: 27.4 lbs **about 10% (they weighed him twice and he came in about a half a pound more the second time – we will take what we can get!)
  • Height: 35.5 inches **10-15%
  • Head Circumference: 46.6 cm  **5-10%

DSCN5681 Carter – 6 months (technically 6 months 1 week at time of visit)

  • Weight: 16 lbs 10 oz  **25-50%
  • Height: 26.5 inches **50%
  • Head Circumference: 43.4 cm  **25-50%

I couldn’t believe it when the doc said that was all he weighed and that he was more at the 25%….I mean really…look at the kid, he is a chunky monkey!! But that is what they tell me.

Such cute boys! Isn't it sad when you realized that your child is growing up! From infant to baby and before you know it- toddler!! They boys will be such good friends! It was so fun to run into you yesterday!

I like your new background! It's a little easier to read this way. Before I had to put my face like 3 inches from my computer screen!

Your kids are just a little cute too. I'm not sure what all the statistics mean, but I hope they are good!
