The Titanic Toddler


As in "like a Titan," not as in "sinking ship."

The Hatchling had her 12 month check-up today, and as usual, she's off the charts, yo:

Noggin: 46.5 cm around (90th percentile)
Height: 31.5 inches (>97th percentile)
Weight: 26 lbs, 10 oz (>97th percentile)

So ... yeah. Now I understand why my back hurts all the damn time. TWENTY SIX FREAKING POUNDS is why. The doctor pronounced her "gorgeous" "a real tow head" and "the picture of health." Which indeed she is.
