Stepping Back from the Cheerios

Taking a minute to step back from the mess of half chewed strawberries, cheerios and animal crackers I looked at my kiddos and thought about how blessed I am to have them. The homework, messes, piles of dirty clothes, countless toys, stock in huggies, giggles, and I love yous are a constant reminder of how dull our lives would be without children. Because after all, children are a heritage.

We have a preliminary answer on Charlies growth. Her pedi is calling it Constitutional Growth Delay. Right now she's a hefty 12lbs and 23.5 inches tall! Yay for growing! She's healthy, happy and all of her lab work so far looks good. We're still waiting on the amino acid thingy and the organic who-knows-what, but her pedi doesn't expect there to be anything abnormal, more just a matter of ruling out those things. We love the little bippy and I guess this means we can snuggle out little one a little longer than we thought :)

  1. My middle one was huge at birth and then just "forgot" to grow for quite a while. The Dr's wanted me to take her to a growth specialist but I just waited it out. She is now taller than me. She may just be a tiny thing. Either way, you will love her all the same.
    Oh I can't wait to find time to get there and meet you & all the little ones in person! You need a hug!
