Yup. Still itty bitty. (And fungus-free.)

Nora paid a visit to her pediatrician this morning, due to a suspected case of (ahem, cough, ahem) frigging ringworm. Which is not, apparently, anything remotely related to a worm, but is something like athlete's foot. A fungus. Almost as fun as a worm.

The test came back NEGATIVE thankyouverymuch - it's probably just some weird eczema-type thing. Hydrocortisone should clear it right up.

Our main point is, Nora was weighed for the first time in 6 months. We really thought she'd be hitting the mid-range on the charts by now, but nope - our girl is 17lbs 4oz - the 5th percentile! Long and lean and lovely. That's probably why she can lift herself up to standing with her fingertips. Super baby!

We can assure you, however, that her attitude is gaining a lot of weight lately, in directions both joyful and adamant.
