9 month stats

Went to the doctor for Cooper's 9 month check-up today. He is doing well and didn't have to have any shots for this visit (YEA!).

Head Circumference - 17 inches - 30th percentile
Weight - 18 lbs. 9.9 oz - 20th percentile
Length 28 1/4 inches - 52nd percentile

We were pleased to see that his head had grown to a somewhat more "average" circumference (he's been in the 5-10th percentile) and were alarmed at first that his weight had gone down to the 20th percentile from the 50th. They reassured us that it was perfectly normal though because he has become so much more active (not just laying or sitting). He's still on track to be more and more like Sean - tall and skinny.

Sounds just like Drew! No worries to be tall and skinny! :) I can't get over how fast these babies grow up!
