What a Chunk!

The pediatrician actually said "What a chunk!" after looking at Rhys' stats. She quickly followed up that he was healthy and proportional and fine where he was at. He weighed in at a whopping 27 lbs., 8 oz. placing him in the 94th percentile. His length/height was 32.25 inches placing him in the 96th percentile. And his head is just bursting with brain matter and is in the 98th percentile.

He is wearing 24 month clothes and is only a year old. Rhys is about to pop out some molars because they are all swollen but he hasn't gotten too cranky about those yet.

Today, for the first time, we are noticing that he is waving bye-bye. Way to grow, Rhys!

Wow !! I had to take elsa to the doc today - they weighted her and she's only 27 ?! And she's short too. Guess she's gonna be like mommy.
How are you guys ?

He is so cute. Our baby Kaylynn was born a few weeks before your little guy. We took her in for her 1 year and she weighed 17lbs and was 28 inches long. She is very tiny for her age, but we have never had large children. Remember Thomas? He was tiny.
