Disproportionate

That's what Rachel is, statistically.

She had her 9 month checkup today:

Head Circumference: 44.5 cm - 50th %
Length: 28.5 in - 75th %
Weight: 17 lbs 6 oz - 10th %

Tall and skinny - and gorgeous ;) - just like her Mommy Mindy. We think the weight is so low just because she's been sick and puking her guts out, so I don't expect it to be so low next time. And she got a shot, and a poke in the foot to check her iron levels. She kept trying to take the band-aid off her toe. Everything's good and healthy as normal, though. And everyone always comments on her blue eyes. :)

When Mindy was little, she weighed 22 pounds for the longest time. She just kept getting taller and skinnier and staying the same weight. When people asked her how old she was, she'd say, "twenty-two pounds."

That's funny. James is odd in a different way...88% for height, right around 50% for height, and 11% for head circumference. But then, I too have a small head.

All my kids were the same way tall and thin. They grow into their body eventually. I hope she feels better soon.
