The Peanut is On the Chart

Yes, this very Peanut. Our wild and fearless peanut. Born weighing just 1 lb. 14 oz., at less than half the weight of her brother, Rosemary is on the growth chart for more than just head circumference. As of this morning, at age 2, Rosemary weighed 22 lbs. 2 oz. and was 31.5 inches tall. That puts her squarely in the 10th percentile for both weight and height. YAY ROSEMARY!

Piper weighed in at 24 lbs. 4 oz. (10-25th percentile) and 33 inches tall (10-25th percentile). The Hammer was also 24 lbs. 4 oz. (10-25th percentile) and 34 inches tall (50th percentile). Everyone is slowly but surely making their way up those growth charts!!!
