Spencer had his 9 month check-up yesterday and all looks great! He’s juuuust shy of 22 lbs at 21 lbs, 12.5 oz (75th %). He’s tall at 29 inches long (95th %). His head circumference is 17.5 cm (75th %). He’s slowing down in the weight department and I think that’s because of all the crawling he’s doing now. This boy is burning calories right and left!
Spencer is just an overall bigger baby than Maxwell. For comparison, at 9 months, Maxwell was only 18lbs, 10 oz and 28 inches. In fact, at 1 year, Maxwell was still only 22 lbs – the same that Spencer weighs at 9 months! Dr. Walley did say that Spencer is the size of an average 13 month old! π One area where Maxwell wins is head circumference. Maxwell’s big ole noggin was already 18.5 cm at 9 months.
It was a super report and Spencer is meeting all the milestones he should be meeting. He’s got a bit of a reflux cough but Dr. Walley isn’t worried about it. Overall, he’s doing fantastic and is a growing, thriving little boy! Yay for good doctor reports!
In other news, we have some VERY fun visitors coming tonight!! I get to see my very best friend in the world and I’m THIS excited about it…
yay! Have a great weekend and see you Monday!
