Ronan's tree rings

[rootofnewt]

Rough measurements of Ronan just now, using my self-healing cutting mat and the antique baby scale:

25"
Just under 15#

Pretty cool. He's more than doubled his birth weight and he's grown 5-6 inches. I can't find my measuring tape, so we'll just have to believe that his head is big enough.

On the WHO growth charts, this puts right around the fifteenth percentile on both. His weight for length puts him in about the fiftieth percentile, which is amusing. He may be little, but he's perfectly chunky.

He only seems to speak in dolphin-speak. I need earplugs.

He's just under five months. So cool.

>>>self-healing cutting mat

This just sounds ODD in the context of baby measuring ;)

Yay for Ronan!! (And, dammit, I MISS you guys, I want to see you! Am trying to convince K to take a weekend off so that we can drive down to your neck of the woods to visit. Sorry we've been so scarce, I can't make the drive, and he's been worked into the ground for the past year . . . I am working on convincing him that the office will still be there if he takes a couple of vacation days, really!)

You should come visit. We have a wonderful piercing shop down here. You could make it a family hole-punching trip. ;D It might even be tax deductible. Somehow.

I saw this and my first thought was, "She cut the baby?!"

Kellen is 24.5 inches, and 14 lbs 13 oz. And he's 2 months! Our son is huge...

No one believes us when we tell them his age. :(
