At the midwife at one week old:
At six months:
And at one year:
Finally, Chins is dropping back into the pack with respect to weight! At one week and nearly 10 lbs he was in the 95th percentile. At six months and 21 lbs, he was pushing the 97th percentile. Now, at one year and only 26 lbs, he is down in the far more normal 90th percentile. I mean, that's practically diminutive for someone who started out life with a head the size of a three-month-old's.
Sure, he wears 2T clothes and large diapers, but he's only gained 5 lbs in six months! He finally fits clothes for more than a week! This is very, very good.
My six-month-old son is 23 pounds, so this post is encouraging! At the rate he's been growing I was worried that he'd someday be the only 4000 pound 9-year-old in his fourth grade class. I feel much better.
