24 lbs 5.5 ozs & 29.25 in

...William's stats from his 12-month well-visit this afternoon. We know WY's our "big" little boy..."Fireplug" as Poppy likes to call him...and compared to T at the same age, WY is 3 pounds heavier and a mere 1/4 inch taller. (T hit 24 lbs 8.5 ozs at 18-months.) These numbers puts him around the 75th percentile line in weight and the 30th percentile in height/length. I guess the old wives tale that babies double their birth weight by 6-months and triple it by a year is holding true for WY. (It did for T as well!) Oh, and his head is big, but we knew that already as we have to stretch the necks of many of his shirts. Our pediatrician Dr. Paschall had great things to say and encouraged us to "keep on keeping on".
