Big Babies!

I recently took the two youngest Crumbsnatchers to the doctor for their 3-year and 9-month check-ups. While I am not totally surprised at the actual stats of their growth, I am stunned how fast these little ones are growing!

Natalie-Weight-36 lbs--87 percentile
Height-39.5 in--91 percentile
Head Circumference-51.5 cm--off the chart-high

Carter-Weight-24.5 lbs--92 percentile
Height-31 inches--off the chart-high
Head Circumference-48 cm--off the chart-high

While I shook my head and laughed at the size of these kids, the doctor said, "Well at least they are equally proportionate!" "Yeah, she doesn't have to lug Carter, who is the size of a 18-month-old, around all day," I thought. I am so happy they are healthy, but my back usually is complaining by the end of the day.
