Since the weather has been nice out and I’ve had a lot of help, thanks to my in-laws, Dan, and my Mom. We have been to the playground quite a few times this spring so far. So of course I have brought the camera, both the big and little one depending on the day. Of course since Sully Bear is so new, I haven’t had much time to blog, so I thought I would just post various pictures from the playground, from various days without making them all separate posts. So here are my 3 enjoying the playground!

(more…)

We had Sully’s 1 month appointment on the 29th at exactly one month. He is now 11 pounds 3 ounces and 23 inches. He gained 1 inch and almost 2 pounds in 1 month, which is a nice growth rate. He is in the 95th percentile for height, weight and head circumference. He seems to be staying big so far, though he did not gain as much as Desmond did in his first month. Desmond gained a lot his first month, actually looking Sully’s gain since he stated so big is closer to Eloise’s gain for height and between Eloise and Desmond for weight. So we’ll have to see how he continues to gain. Sully at 1 month is basically the same size Desmond was at 1 month almost exactly.

Here are his stats:
At birth he was 9 pounds 4 ounces and 22 inches
At one month he was 11 pounds 3 ounces and 23 inches

Here are Desmond’s stats for the same time period:
At birth he was 7 pounds 14 ounces and 20 3/4 inches
At one month he was 11 pounds and 23 inches

Here are Eloise’s stats for the same time period:
At birth 7 pounds 5 ounces and 19 3/4th inches
At 1 month 8 pounds 8 ounces and 20 3/4 inches

So on the 29th we had Desmond’s 4 year appointment and Sully’s 1 month appointment. Desmond is now 39 inches and 36 pounds. That put him in the 50th percentile for weight and somewhere between the 25th and 50th for height. He gained a little over 4 pounds in the past year and either 2 or 3 inches, depending on whose height measurements we go with from last year. He did great with his two shots as well. Overall he is doing great and his speech is improving nicely with his speech therapy through the local elementary school.

Anyways here are his stats from birth to now.
At birth he was 7 pounds 14 ounces and 20 3/4 inches
At one month he was 11 pounds and 23 inches
At two months he was 14 pounds and 24 1/2 inches
At four months he was 17 pounds 13 ounces and 26 1/2 inches
At 6 months he was 19 pounds 13 ounces and 27 inches
At 9 months he was 22 pounds 3 ounces and 29 inches
At 1 year (12 months) he was 23 pounds 8 ounces and 30 inches
At 15 months was 23 pounds 10 ounces and 31 inches
At 18 months he was 26 pounds and 33 inches
At 2 years he is 27 pounds 8 ounces and 35 inches
At 3 years he is 31 pounds 12.8 ounces and 37 inches
At 4 years he is 36 pounds and 39 inches
