Baby Giant

We always make comments about how big Mari has gotten, or how fast she is growing. Well on Wednesday morning Cruz made the comment when she was climbing out of her high chair (yes on her own) that... "Look! Mari is a Baby Giant!"

Well later that afternoon Mari had her 12 month wellness visit with the doctor. As usual everywhere she goes people love her ginger hair as soon as she pops out of her car seat. Then they notice her cute little teeth coming in and great smile.

The doctor when she saw her was like wow... thats a big baby! Well Mari was in just over the holiday break for an ear infection so it wasn't like it had been that long. Well in those barely two months Mari grew three inches! Whoa...

Well the official tale of the tape... Mari is 32 Inches tall and 20 Pounds. That makes her 99.9 percentile in height, and 75 percentile in weight.

So yeah, I guess Cruz was right, Mari is a Baby Giant! Well Mari is for sure DeCourval Strong...

Then she also got shots and she always takes them like a champ. When she got her flu shot she just barely grunted and mean mugged the nurse. This time she got three, and by the second one was crying... its always hard as the dad I am the one who has to hold her still while the nurse gives the shot. Then D is the one who consoles my baby...

We are glad to have a healthy baby ginger giant.
