Livvie's 2-month appointment

Yep, I took the babe to see the doctor. She's doing great! She weighed in at 12.5 lbs (a gain of 5 lbs. since birth), which lands her in the 89th percentile for weight. And she measured 23.5 inches long (a gain of 3.5 inches), which places her in the 92nd percentile for height. Looks like she'll be a tall one! (as if you can make predictions this early! But her athletic mama and daddy can hope!)

I found a terrific website,
mybirthcare.com, that will track up to 4 kids' growths for 2 years. They save your measurements and weights and track them on nifty, color-coded charts. That way, you can note their progress over the 2 years, compare them with one another, etc.

Cool, I say.

She sounds so healthy!! Victoria was always up in the 90's for hear height...now she is the smallest one in her preschool class. :( I guess she is going to be short like me. Oh well!

way to grow livvie! Chloe is still above the 95th percentile for everything. It's so weird because we are both of normal height and weight. Thanks for the tip, Heather. I'm sure Chloe will be as normal as can be when she reaches preschool.
