The Check Up Stats

Evan - 3 year

Weight: 35 lbs - 75th percentile
Height: 38" - 49th percentile

Evan is a beef cake! The nurse said he is obviously a very smart (solidly built) little boy who could use some more drawing experience. She asked if Evan was drawing faces yet. Um....does that mean playing with cars? Because along with running and throwing the football, that's all he wants to do. Apparently Evan needs to spend more time being creative and less time being a rambunctious little boy. We'll keep you posted on Van Gogh's development.
Hollan - 9 month

Well, the Bitty Bit is still....bitty.
I forget her actual numbers but she is 47th percentile for height and 1st percentile for weight. She's bringing new meaning to her nickname! The nurse said her iron levels are great and she is obviously growing and thriving so there isn't any cause for panic. With how much Hollan is now on the move, she is ready for a higher fat diet. Although she eats constantly all day, nothing she eats has any real fat to speak of (baby fruits/veggies, cheerios, puffs, yogurt melts, breast milk).
So for lunch today, Hollan had cheese ravioli with chicken, zucchini and cream sauce (fatty fats!). You can see she is pleased with the new addition to the menu.
Then she polished off some banana, a 1/2 piece of buttered toast AND a jar of sweet potatoes. I am fully expecting her to have Hulked it out of her pjs by morning time. She goes back to the doctor in 6 weeks for a weight check.
