If by 'helped' you mean allowing me 15 minute increments in which to pack the whole house, then yes....you helped a LOT!




We are here. It wasn't too painful, and we're already starting on the remodel. Woo hoo! I've already got two rooms liberated from their wallpaper strangle-hold. It's come at the expense of unpacking, but I've discovered I have a compulsive desire to peel the stuff off the walls. I'm still not quite convinced that Cleveland rocks, but I will say that it doesn't completely suck either.

I am amazed at how big mini-you is.

Good luck in your new home, may you make many memories there.

Thanks, Pea! And yes, she is huge. An amazon woman in the making, I think. We've randomly met five 6 month old babies in the last week or so....she, at 3 months, is bigger than all of them. She's already more than doubled her birth weight and has grown over 4 inches since then as well, not to mention 2 extra chins!

How big is she? We have our own budding basketball/volleyball player here.

They're about the same age, right? Maybe they can play on the same team. :-)

At her 3 month appt 2 weeks ago, she was up to 15lbs 10oz and 25 3/4"....well over 100% on the growth charts! We haven't supplemented even a molecule of anything, so I am pretty proud. :D

No, my baby is a year ahead.

She was about an inch shorter at 3 months. She was 19.5 inches at birth, and grew at least an inch each month. She has slowed a bit now. At her 18 month checkup in a couple weeks, I am estimating that she will be at least 35 inches.

If you take the height at 24 months and double it, that is within an inch of how tall the person will be at adulthood.

It worked with me and my siblings, anyway. The youngest was supposed to be 6'5" and there was some doubt, but at 17 he grew five inches in one year and made the target.

I am pretty sure I posted this, but if you didnt get to see it...

What a beautiful lil one you have there...wish you a ton of great memories.

Make sure you video a lot and take lots of pictures. Your refrigerator can never be big enough to hold all of your kid pics, trust me! :)

You think that she's big? Apparently, you haven't seen this story. :wink:

Spoiler
This baby weighs more than my 8 year-old.
I do hope that the child gets help.
