The 6 month/2 year check-ups

This morning, Ellie and Charlie both had their well visits. Both kiddos are doing well and are in great health. Charlie has some fluid and redness in one ear, but given his ear-to-ear smile, the doctor was convinced that he's not suffering and the ear doesn't need to be treated. So now the stats...

Charlie weighs 18 lbs., 2 oz., putting him in the 58th percentile (Ellie weighed 20 lbs., 1 oz. and was in the 95th+ percentile); he is 27.25 inches long and in the 76th percentile (Ellie was also exactly 27.25 inches long, but according to that doctor's chart, she was in the 95th percentile); and his head is in the 92nd percentile. So basically he's a lovable little bobble-head doll.

Ellie weighs 31.8 lbs. and is 92nd percentile; she's 37.5 inches tall and in the 99th percentile (really, she's off the charts...by quite a bit); and her head is in the 98th percentile. Not surprising to anyone.

We are so very blessed to have two beautiful, sweet, healthy, happy kiddos!
