I forgot to post about Jack's new stats from his 12 month appointment.
Weight: 19lbs 8oz (5th percentile)
Length: 28.5 inches (10th percentile)
Head Circumference: 17 inches (not even 5th percentile)
Basically, what this all amounts to is......one smaller than average boy!! It kind of looks like Jack lost weight, but truly the last time he got weighed was with all his clothes on...they really like to only use the well-baby visits for trending. At 9 months, he was 19lbs even...so he's gained 0.5lbs. His head and length though have increased since the last time they were measured. I certainly would feel better if he was following along the growth curve, but genetics and a crazy activity level are working against him. The pediatrician isn't concerned at all, so we'll just keep moving forward and see what he does in the next few months!
Today, we got to visit with Jace, Laura, and Greta for a little bit. She's growing up quick! Jack was fairly interested in Greta until he discovered the new linking block set they'd brought for him...he wouldn't let go of them until we pried them out of his hands before bed. Thanks, Uncle Jace, Aunt Laura, and Greta!! Anything that keeps him entertained is fabulous in my book.
Jack and I have a low-key day tomorrow (i.e. pajamas and maybe a good long nap together), and then its back to work as usual (these 4 days off were nice though after last weeks busier schedule).
