Are they for real?

So I recently read an article in a parenting magazine that said, "Your child will triple his birthweight in the first year of his life."

Umm, Jaxon was 9 lbs 6 oz at birth so that would mean he would weigh in at over 28 lbs on his first birthday. Sydney only weighs 33 lbs and she's almost 3. Are they sure about this? If so, he better start walking next week!

At his 4 month check up, Jaxon weighed 16lbs 3oz and measured 26 1/2 inches, so he is a little bigger than most 4 month olds, but 28 lbs might be a little much. At least I hope!

After months of grining and bearing it, Jaxon has finally found Sydney's weakness - hair.

Here she is "calling" Grandma to tell her what Baby Brother did.


Yesterday we went to help Donnie's brother and his family pack - they are moving across the country (**sniffle, sniffle**). Sydney decided to do a little packing as well.

Yeah, I totally don't believe that! Both of my boys were barely 20 pounds at one year and they were in like the 35th - 50th percentile. I have rarely seen kids bigger then like 23 pounds on their first birthday -- especially girls!
