One non-surprise, he still is very, very lightweight:) Technically, he should still be riding backwards in his carseat. Shhhh, don't tell.
So, our one official instruction is to "fatten him up." Hence, this is a picture of our son's first whole milk, organic ice-cream, fruit and flaxseed (I had to make it just a tiny bit healthy!) milkshake mustache. Here's to high calorie treats!

Easier on the back and arms. :p Yeah, Troy wasn't 20 lbs until at least 13 months old but we turned him around... Shame on us, too!
Hmm...avocado, cream cheese and olive sandwiches?? :p
How are you doing? ;)
I sympathize with you on the lightweight baby - I never really knew how much to worry when Jonas was sliding down the growth charts
I sometimes think that developmentally, its hard to gain weight when a kid is "working" on other things - like talking. I also think it's hard to worry too much about a kid who is doing great developmentally. That being said, an avocado a day is what turned our little guy into an almost medium sized guy.
Have you seen the 2006 World Health Organization growth charts? They are a lot different from the American growth charts. I found them reassuring. http://www.who.int/childgrowth/standards/technical_report/en/index.html
He sure has an adorable smoothie smile!
