One month shy of a year

Poor Kate, feeling a little under-the-weather last weekend, paid a visit to the doctor this week. The one good thing about taking a kid to the doctor? Finding out the exact measurements! And, of course, hearing the rankings as compared to other kids' sizes at the same age (which is just over 11 months). Kate, it turns out, is measuring up like her brother: skinny with a big head.

Height: 28" (25th percentile)
Weight: 17 lbs, 5 oz. (7%... yikes!)
Head circumference: 45.75 cm (18 inches, 80%)

The other great thing? By the time we got to the doctor's, Kate's temperature was normal and she was back to her ornery self. Phew.

Weight 75%?? That doesn't sound right... Glad the fever didn't last long.

Whoops... you're right; I meant to say 7%!
