i’m a weed?

Posted by kyden on Monday Nov 2, 2009 Under Uncategorized

at my doctor’s appointment today, i weighed in at… brace yourself… 10 pounds 10 ounces (66 %ile) and measured 22.5 inches long (74 %ile)!!!  OH… MY… GAWD…

my doctor says i’m growing like a weed.

daddy wants to know what the heck mommy is feeding me.  protein shakes?

gung-gung (grandpa quon) thinks i should go on a diet.

auntie barbara says mommy should bottle up her breastmilk and sell it for millions!

    Is there a “goal” percentile to be in?

  2. kyden Says:

    ummm, there’s not really a goal percentile. but the percentile serves several purposes:
    1) gives me an idea of how i’m growing, compared to other kids my age (so i know if i’ll be the smallest kid in class when i start school)
    2) tells me if i’m skinny or fat (relative to my height/length)
    3) helps explain to mommy and daddy why i’m too big for the clothes that manufacturers’ labels say should fit me
    4) gives my statistics-obsessed mommy data points to plot on my growth chart

    You have a GROWTH CHART?

    …I want a growth chart.

    my mommy can make a growth chart for you :) she even has one for koda!

    I think for me, it’ll soon be a shrink chart on a height. Unless we do a growth chart on weight. OOH, now that could be a great motivator!
