4 Year Old Stats

I took Lila for her check-up today. My kids always love going to see Dr. Wilcox, and this time was no different. He got to hear all about her new bike and her party and her cupcakes...lucky guy!

Here are her 4 year old stats:

Height: 41.25 inches -- 81st%
Weight: 38 pounds -- 75th%
BMI: 15.8 - 66th%

Can you even believe how big my little tiny Lila Cate has gotten? Do you even remember how scrawny she was? She was freakishly small! She was born a normal weight, but quickly dropped to the very bottom of the growth charts. For most of her first 2 years she hung out around the 3rd percentile on the chart.

Once we figured out she had a milk protein allergy/lactose intolerance, we were able to help her gain a little, but it was only when she finally outgrew them, that her growth took off. Apparently she hasn't stopped since.

She is such a big, healthy girl. I love it!

(Sunny was only 31 lbs and 40 inches at 4 years old. I imagine she is right about 40 pounds now. No wonder she and Lila are able to share clothes.
And, just because it is funny. Griffin was 32 pounds at 2 years old. It's not that L and G are that big, it's that Sunny really is that small. She is totally a throwback to her great-grandmother Mok, and her great-great-grandmother, Grammy. They are both itty-bitty.)

No, I wasn't concerned and neither was the doctor. I just talked to him about it today and we laughed about how little #'s 1,2, and 5 are and how big 3 and 4 are now. Lila was always freakishly small but healthy. As long as Addison is happy and developing normally I'd bet she fine. She is a super adorable babe!
