We’ve all seen them. Bumper stickers about honor students,
sports stars, brilliant dogs, amazing grandchildren. I’m going to get one that
says “My Kids are Off the Charts”…because they are.
On Tuesday, we had Ethan’s 2-month doctor’s appointment and
Emry’s 2-year. Both kids are quite healthy. I was just about right on Ethan’s
weight – a pound bigger than his 1-month. He is, in fact, a full pound and one
ounce larger, weighing in at a whopping 8 pounds and 7 ounces. Looking back and
Emry’s chart, he’s actually two ounces smaller than she was at that age, but an
inch longer. Which is probably why newborn sleepers don’t fit anymore even
though newborn clothes do. But if you put his weight and length together, he’s
not even on the charts. Just like his sister.
And speaking of his sister, I wasn’t anywhere close on her
weight. I was thinking about 25 pounds, tiny but growing. Try 22 pounds and 10
ounces. She’s a full 31-inches tall. Put these together and she doesn’t even
hit the charts – unless you’re looking at the chart for an 1-year old. She’s
probably the only toddler that’s wearing the same clothes she did last summer.
Not that we’re complaining. Some of her clothes are awfully cute!
