Growing, Growing, Growing!

I took both kiddos into the pediatrician today for their well-child check-ups.  Only we're not so well.  It seems that we're catching every bug that goes around this year.  Once again both of Gilead's ears are infected.  This is his fifth infection in the last six months, so we're off to the ear, nose, and throat specialist on the 16th of June.


Despite all of the illness, both Mercy and Gilead are growing well--each maintaining the courses they've been on.


Mercy is our petite girl at 35.5 inches and 28 pounds.  At three years old that puts her at roughly the 24th percentile for both height and weight.

Gilead is very, very long and lean at 32.75 inches and 22 pounds 1 ounce.  At 15 months that places him at 91% for height and 18% for weight.

One of my favorite things right now is how much they adore one another.  I think each feels a wee bit lost without the other.  The love playing together, which makes my life so much easier!

And a few parting shots, just because they're so cute!
