the stats are in

Cosette's 9-month well-baby check-up yielded the following:
  • length: 27 in = 25th percentile
  • weight: 18 lbs = 40th percentile
  • head: 17.75 in = 75th percentile (both my kids got my large round head)
  • and one healthy baby girl, except she doesn't feed herself, say & wave "bye bye", or use her pincer grasp. (Not her fault though since I haven't thought to let her TRY to feed herself nor teach her "bye, bye" yet, so I'm not worried & neither was her doctor.)
For fun, let's look at Henri's 9-month stats:
  • length: 28 1/2 in = 50th percentile
  • weight: 20 lbs = 40th percentile
  • head: 18 in = 50th percentile
  • and one healthy baby boy who had eczema & food allergies

Interesting! Definitely wouldn't be worried about "bye bye" either and, for the record, you do NOT have a big head! I mean, it's round, but isn't it supposed to be!? :)

Ha! My hat size is bigger than my husband's, so I guess we know the kids probably didn't get Johnny's head. :)
