Arya is growing fine and looks good. The doctor thinks she will be the biggest of all 3 kids. In a way, I agree. Her stats:
Weight: 24 lbs.
Height: 30 1/4 inches
Head Circumference: Big! It was in the 92nd percentile. (I didnt' see the number)
At first, the helper weighed Arya at 21 lbs. I looked at her and said, "That is not right. Please try again." Arya sat on the scale again and the same number came up. OK, I thought. Jean must be totally off as she had told me 26ish lbs a couple weeks ago. The doctor agreed with the weight as children at this age are transitioning to table food and "red" milk ( aka wholemilk) their weight often dips down. But as soon as he picked up her off the table, he said "You are right, let's weigh her again".
The doctor has cared for our family for the past 6 years. He and nurses love to see my trio waltzing down the hall. Same eith my kids -- They love to have a new audience to talk to.
During the visit, Vance kept telling the doctor in a shy voice "She's my friend" (refering to Arya). It was super cute!

While all of the kids have been good, healthy, happy babies, Arya just has to be the happiest of them all. She thrives off attention from her big sister and brother - and just lights up the room with her smile.
Yup, I too was surprised by the weight. Of course, since she's started walking, there is very little crawling and she's constantly on the go. Loved the comparison's to Henry and Oliver. She's a jewel. She loves Zoie and Vance and they return it. Vance uses a soft high pitched voice and does the cutest things for AW WE YA. She glows when Zoie interacts with her. She knows she's loved.
Arya is so darling! Happy Birthday sweet girl! Carrie, I loved catching up on your blog. You are one busy mama. I loved all the sewing projects you did for Christmas gifts... amazing.
