He's How Big???!!!!

Today we took Bennett for his 2 month check up (even though he is almost 3 months old). We were pretty eager to hear how big he is because we have noticed how he is already outgrowing his 3-6 month clothes. His ankles show in all of his long pants. It's funny because he looks like he is wearing capris. Tim has a fit because boys shouldn't wear capris! Well, here is the news...
Weight: 15 pounds, 11 ounces (97th percentile)
Height: 25 inches (97th percentile)
Head: 95th percentile (up from 75th percentile last month!)
We LOVE our growing boy! The only thing that is a pain in the neck (or back and arms) is that he has now started to cry if he isn't being held and walked around the room. Tim is really getting a work out from this! Bennett was a sweetheart throughout the whole exam. He did do his typical pee all over the scale, we were not surprised. You gotta love chubby babies!

Are fat babies the best! I can't believe how big he's getting...tell him to stop growing and stay the same age for a while. His birthday gift is quickly turning into a Christmas gift!!!! I still have to finish it, too. Ahhh, stop getting bigger!

I'm so glad you found me, I actually googled you and Sommer a few weeks ago to see if you guys had blogs but I came up empty handed. Glad to see your little family is doing well.

I can not believe that he's in the 95% in every category. He's going to be a football player!

What a big boy!! What are you feeding him? Whatever it is- you're doing a good job! He's definitely thriving!
