Big Girl


We took Britt for her three-year checkup today, and confirmed what I was thinking: Britt's had a big growth spurt this year.

She started out tiny, and stayed tiny through her first year, with her height registering in the tenth percentile. It was in the 25th percentile when she turned two, which was still below average.

This year she's in the 75th percentile! She's taller than average! Woo-hoo!

And now, the bad news: her weight. Last year the doctor said she was two pounds overweight, which is not a lot, unless you only weigh 30 pounds. This year her weight was in the 95th percentile, and the doc didn't say anything about her being overweight. So I was all, Yay! Until I looked it up and saw that she was in the 95th percentile last year.

Anyway, her official numbers: just over 38 inches tall and 39 pounds.
