Clayton's right

Here is a conversation my nephew, Clayton (3 yrs old), had with his mom (Christy) about a month ago:

Clayton: "Mama, I am a big boy"
Christy: "Yes, Clayton, you are a big boy"
Clayton: "Emwee (his baby sister, Emily) is little. She is a baby"
Christy: "Yes, Emily is a little baby"
Clayton: "I'm big boy, Emwee is little, but Ellie is huge"

Well, today I took Ellie for her 18 mo check and she proved Clayton right... She continues to be at the top of the chart. In fact, he did not even put percentages because her head circumference (49.5 cm) and height (35.5 in) were both over 100% for her age. Her weight was in the 90%'s (27 lbs & 15 oz). When did my baby grow up?

those numbers kinda make her sound like sumo baby, but she is not!!! she is beautiful, and looks tall, and has those adorable chunky thighs, but she looks normal to me!

that clayton said she was huge is hilarious!
