Percentile, Schmercentile

Nora's two month Well Baby checkup was today, and she tipped the scales at a whopping 8 pounds 10 ounces! For those keeping track, this is a total gain of 3 pounds 6 ounces from her lowest weight, and 2 3/4 inches. Schnikeys!

Two months ... 8 pounds ... That's right. She's in the 4th percentile for weight and size.

Which we think is so much more interesting than, say, the 50th percentile. How boring and average that would be.

She's itty. And mighty. We think the growth chart and that nurse-ly frown can go right into the Diaper Champ with the rest of the c**p!

And Nora had this to say:

Awwww she is just so cute! I've been hiding away with my new little guy so I haven't seen her in ages. He came out at 8 lbs 14 oz and by 1 day shy of 3 weeks, he was already 10 lbs 1 oz. I am a little envious of your little girl -- my arms are getting so tired! Sadly google is not able to put up all the pics you guys have posted but I'll check back another time... can't wait to see her new big cheeks!
