Check it out: 8th percentile for weight! We’re on the chart! At the 6 month visit, Benji barely squeaked into the 1st percentile for weight, so he’s really moving up in the world. Or at least the growth charts.
I told the nurse I was excited for Benji to get a bigger head circumference (to wear a helmet and therefore ride in a trailer) and she said, “Not many people want their kids to have bigger heads.” Just goes to show that we’re not many people, huh?
If he’d had two more ounces of milk before the doctor visit he would have been 18 lbs! I’m quite content that he’s light–makes it easier for my old back and weak arms. 🙂
