Packing on the Pounds!

Out little girl is getting SO BIG! She is getting close to 5 months old. Up until yesterday, Autumn has been weighing in at about the 7th or 8th percentile for her age. However she has been between the 50th and 75th percentile for height. Long and lean just like her Daddy! Yesterday we had a great visit from our friend MaryJo and she weighed Autumn in at 13 pounds 5 ounces!

We knew our girl had been eating really well these days and seemed as though she was filling out quite a bit. Since her 4 month appointment, she gained 22 ounces in 18 days! This bumped our single digit girl up into the 25th percentile!!!

Now I know none of this REALLY matters, and it's all just numbers and percents - and what truely matters is that she is happy and healthy. As a nursing mother, however, I can't help but be a little joyous about seeing my baby girl growing so well.
