Joelle had her 3 month check up this week. She weighs 13 lbs 7.5 ounces! What a good chunky baby, eh? That puts her in the 90% percentile for weight. She's also in the 95% for height, but only the 40% for head circumference. Ya, she's got her dad's tiny head. It's no wonder she held her head up so early. She's got a big strong body and small head.
It feels good to have a big baby. With the boys it was a battle just to get them on the charts at all when they were this age. Growing up they never exceeded the 50% percentile in anything. Everything with her is different than the boys were-except her cuteness of course:)
Other facts about Joelle:
-she's a GREAT sleeper. Thank goodness for that.
-she eats really well, but then pukes a lot after each meal. I don't mind and her pediatrician thinks its normal so I'm not worried about it.
-She has such a great temperament. I love watching her coo and smile and bat at her hanging toys.
-she drools like crazy! this girl can soak though her clothes every hour if i don't wipe her chin. I love it though.
-She loves it when i sing to her-except when i try to hit the high notes. yesterday i was singing one of my favorite songs "Lets Hear it for the Boy" and at the end of the song i squeaked out the last impossible notes and her smile turned to a look of confusion. It was really funny.
She's such an angel. I love this girl!
