Stick Figure Baby...

We had our 9 month check up today and learned that Jacob most resembles a stick figure. Jacob's stats are Height: 28inches, Weight: 18 3/4lbs. Which puts him at the 50th percentile for height, 10th percentile for weight and 90th percentile for head circumference (although they didn't tell us the exact head measurement). Who knew we had such a skinny baby with those chubby thighs? I know what you are thinking, he MUST take after his skinny daddy, but he actually is taking after me a bit (shocking, I know). Jacob and I had the EXACT same height and weight at birth (8lbs 8oz, 21.5inches) and I was quite a peanut at 9months, too... I was 28inches and weighed only 16lbs 8oz (Yikes!). We also learned that his ears are all clear for our flight next week and that his diaper rash is actually a yeast infection (which probably has to do with him being sick last week apparently), so we got some prescription cream to help clear that up, thank goodness!

Other than that, not too much is new. We are heading to West Palm Beach next Friday so that is pretty exciting. This past Wednesday was the first day that my mom watched both Jacob and his cousin, Noah, and I'm happy to say it was a success! My mom said that it's official: we can have another baby... Jacob did good sharing the attention. Yeah, we'll get working on that mom...
