Well check-up

For those of you interested, Levi had his 9 month well check up a couple of days ago. He is a healthy boy, but very small! This was not surprising to us, seeing as he is still easily wearing size 2 diapers and cannot seem to hold pants on his waist unless they are size 3-6 months (and some of those even fall down!). Here aer his numbers: 15 lbs. even, which fell below the 3rd percentile. 28 inches long, which is between the 25-50%. So, he is just a skinny guy, average in length. Levi eats a lot-still nursing 5 times a day as well as eating 3 meals of baby food and snacks throughout the day. As mentioned before, though, he is quite the mover, so we are chalking it up to that as well as his genetic make-up. Our family seems to have several smaller children and I think Levi is just going to be another one. But, we are so glad he is healthy and happy! He is still crawling like crazy and pulling up on anything he can get a hold on. The doctor said she doesn't think it'll be long before he's walking, and I think she's right...he's got to keep up with his big sister!
