Well “Baby” Checks

Yesterday the girls had their physicals, Reese for 18 months and Brady for 3 years. They are very healthy and right on development track. The doctor told me that Reese has already hit some 3-year old bench marks!!!

Here are the measurements:

 

Reese:

Height-31.5 inches  50%ile

Weight-23 lbs 13 oz  ~40 %ile

Head- 19.5 inches  well above 95%ile

 

Brady:

Height-36.3 inches  25%ile

Weight-29 lbs 14 oz ~40%ile

Head- 19.9 inches  90%ile

 

So I would have never guessed the outcome of the above %iles!!! Reese has dropped in her height and weight %iles but went up in the head. I am glad the growth has slowed down, because for a while she was catching up with big sis. But I thought she was higher compared to kids her age, not average.

 

However, I do have to laugh that both of my girls have “large”heads! I have always had a big head, and apparently the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree. Sometimes we have to pack clothes away as “too small” because they don’t fit over their head even though they fit everywhere else!
