My little, but big, guy


Charlie is awesome. He's also really big for his age (just turned 2 two weeks ago). One doctor, who obviously isn't familiar with statistics, said that he is in the 129% percentile for height for kids his age. So he's taller than 129% of the kids on planet earth. Wow.


Other people, particularly at the gym daycare, start talking to him in full sentences and expecting him to respond. He is the same size as many five-year-olds. Although Marin and her siblings aren't that small, we think its a safe bet that he gets his size from my side of the family.
For example, this is Charlie with his five-going-on-six-year-old cousin.

Will so miss you guys!!! See you Sunday? for the Zoester blessing?
I made a comment on your 4th of July post Gil-just made it today.

And I thought Zoe's 75th percentile head was big-she's got nothing on her cousin-once-removed!!!!

Dang cute kid. My niece was in the zero-eth percentile for weight. Pediatricians must not be so good with their math. Hope you don't mind my blog stalking.
