You are doing better than me, I am embarrassed I haven't had him weighed since leaving the hospital :blush: I am supposed to be getting a home visit from the nurse which I am holding out for, they normally do that within the first week home but we have had a massive influx of births so they are overbooked, if they don't come in the new few days I will take him to the clinic myself to get weighed :lol:

Do you have a scale at home. I don't and my mom always said she loved having one when she had us kids.

Sounds like everyone is growing well though!

I just have my regular weight scales, there is a baby scale at the local chemist, I just haven't been bothered dragging all 4 kids out to the shops just to weigh Lucas :shuffle: But I will make a point of it over the weekend while Tony is home to watch the others and get him weighed :aok: I do want to make sure he is gaining weight.

Oh, believe me, if she hadn't had two bouts of jaundice, I wouldn't have nearly as many records of her weight. It's insane how many times we've been to the hospital/pediatrician in the last two weeks!! Fortunately we are now done until she is 2 months old.:woo:

I finally pulled my finger out and got Lucas weighed today, he has gained over 1kg (about 2.5lbs) in just under 3 weeks!! What a piglet!

You got half & half in boobies, Deb? :lol: Good job, mama!!! :aok:

March 6 - always moving hands to mouth
March 15 - gets thumb in mouth, rather than sucking on hand.
March 18 - "conversation" with us by cooing, and in 3-6 month clothing (almost 2 months, adjusted)
March 27 - Holds her head up so much better during tummy time
May 4 - Grabs things that are put near her hand
June 7 - Roll over back to belly
July 5 - Sitting perfectly, with and without arm for support, and reaching for toys

Look at her grown, Marcy! Good job :aok:

Thanks, Deb. I feel "moo!" but it's a good feeling to watch her get so big.

I just updated Charlottes stats. She is a piggie..good to know mommy's milk is filling her in!

I updated Travis' stats...he is going to end up being smaller than Janelle, he's already shorter than she was at 6 months and only 6oz heavier.

I just updated Lucas' stats, he has dropped down a bit on the curve, he was just a bit above average at all the other appointments, now he is a bit below average, he is still the similar ball park, but instead of the dot being above the middle line it's now just a bit under it. I am a "little" concerned because this is how Jacob went and then he didn't gain a single gram till he was 8 months old, I just have to keep an eye on it.

I updated Olivia's stats. She is by far the smallest child we've had. She is about 5 pounds smaller than Kenny at this age, 4 pounds smaller than Nicholas and over a pound smaller than Layla was. Looks like she may take after Matt's side of the family.:awink:

Cohen Gregory

June 15th Birth: 7lb. 2oz. 19 3/4 inches
June 17th Discharge: 6lb. 15oz. 19 3/4 inches
June 26th 1st Dr's Visit (1.5 Weeks): 7lb. 8oz. 20 1/4 inches
July 6th Dr's Visit (3 Weeks, for goopy eyes): 7lb. 14oz.

Cohen is 3 weeks old already?! :woa: Where does the time go?

:lol: Melissa, I was terrified where Lucas would be on the chart cause every child we have had has gotten smaller and smaller but it seems he decided to be average joe and be right in the middle.

I had his 9 month check up and he is doing great, developmentally he is where he should be and his weight and height are both in the 50%ile and his head circumference is in the 25%. He has 8 teeth and is crawling and pulling himself up onto things. He says dada, mama and bubba and is able to do the sign for milk, wave goodbye and clap on command. :heart: Love him!

He is such a doll and has the most beautiful eyes and smile! He is doing way more than Olivia. She is only crawling, pulling up and waving goodbye. And she only has 4 teeth. So glad that he is growing so well!!

It's so bittersweet, I am so excited to be moving onto the next phase but also saddened that this is the last smooshy baby of mine that I will be BFing and getting giggles out of :sigh:

We just went for Charlotte's 9 mo check up. She is 27 inches tall. I got TYlor's baby book out. He was 31 inches tall at his 2 year check up :lol: She might just be my tallest baby yet :lol:
