Madeline had her 1 year well baby check today and she is TINY! Here are the stats:
weight: 16 lbs 10.5 oz (off the chart, sound familiar?)
height: 29.75 inches (70th percentile)
head: 46cm (80th percentile)
When Angela was one, she weighed 16 lbs 15 oz, so Maddie is not that far off the mark. Still, she is so small that we are starting the whole weekly weight check thing like we did with Andrew.
In addition, we are back to the Pediasure diet (again, shades of Andrew) and just stuffing her with as many calories as we can. Butter on everything, ice cream if she'll have it, etc. Quite possibly the luckiest baby ever.
Developmentally, she is great. She says "uh-oh", "all done," "chicken (chichi)," "up," "this," "nigh nigh," "dada", and "mama". She's walking lots more and likes to put things on her head and feel them slide off. She still loves to dance and does a cute little hop when she's really gettin' down.
We did all the bloodwork to make sure nothing weird is going on, but having been down this road once before, I'm sure she'll be fine. Just petite!

Wow! She is little but mighty. Adeline just took her first steps this week. She hates to fall, so she is cautious and usually lowers herself to the ground when we try to get her to walk. Madeline has quite the vocabulary already. You must be so proud. :)
