Big Boy!

When I was pregnant with George, I knew he was a big guy - refer back to any pregnancy Blog, and you will see the chronicles of hugeness. I only gained 10 pounds, but I was absolutely enormous with that child. And even when he was born 3 weeks early, he weighed just about 9 pounds.
Fast forward to his 7 month check-up recently...

  • Length - 28.5" 95-97%
  • Weight - 21 lb. 75-90%
  • Head - 46.5 cm 97%
My baby has outgrown his infant seats, every scrap of clothing he owns, zipped right through diapers - he's in a size 4 already, is too big for the strap on baby carrier (thus the reason for me carrying his cuteness through 2 battleships and a submarine on a recent trip to the Buffalo Waterfront and War Memorial). I am pretty sure that, though the youngest of my brood, he's going to be the biggest. His easy going good humor make me think he's going to be a gentle giant though! So, without further ado, some pictures of the child in question...






Don't judge - he has no teeth to rot out yet....

And now, just because I happen to have some cute pictures of the other kids, here are a few of them thrown in, too! :)

Below, Lexi in 2 different Halloween coustumes - angel and clown. Our Village recently had a Carnival, with a parade to kick it off. We were going to walk over to watch it, and Lexi dressed for the occassion. She only ended up wearing the angel part of the get-up though.




I was cooking hotdogs on the grill the other night, and Kaila had just picked this rose. She was sitting in a chair right behind me talking, and I turned around and HAD to get this picture - I love it!

This below, explaining the meloncholy look...

Before Katelyn moved, she brought Kaila this swing - apparently this is where they spent most of their time together, while at Kate's. So, Kaila spends a lot of time on it. And, like me, she tends to get lost in a book when she needs a break from the world. And, of course, the unsung best friend, ever loyal, by her side. Buster ADORES his Kaila.
Thit boy has always used everything but the stairs to get on and off the porch.... The times I have looked out the livingroom windows and seen the kids standing on those railings, with my heart in my mouth are countless. Lexi has proven she can not only climb onto those railings in heels, but shimmy up the posts, as well. I know several of the ER staff by name now....


And last but not least - LOOK!!!! Lexi's hair is making wonderful progress!!!!
