Monday was Riggs' well baby check up

I had the opportunity to tend Avery Kathryn while Mommie and Daddy took Riggs in for his well baby check up. Avery was in a lively mood and we read, played and sang until it was time for dinner. Ask anyone who has ever fed Avery, dinner is not play time, it is serious business!! After dinner, we sat outside on the glider--singing more songs, watching the water in the fountain and enjoying the early evening. When Mommie and Daddy returned, that precious little girl (who has clearly wrapped her Daddy around her little pinkie!) managed to convey her interest in being in Daddy's arms immediately!

Riggs had dinner and again, it was spectacular. Usually a little fussy about eating from the spoon, that was not the case this time! At one point I heard Mommie asking the little boy in the high chair, "where's Riggs?" His sweet little smile took over and with a face covered in cereal, bananas and sweet potatoes, he looked up at his Mommie. Other than that, he was focused on finishing everything in his bowl . . . and did! Yeah Riggs!!

Riggs and Avery are both about even on everything from height and weight to head circumference! But you know, the percentiles sure look different!!!

Here are Avery's stats from last week:

Weight: 17 lbs 6 oz - 70th percentile
Height: 25¾ inches – 30th percentile
Head: 17 1/2 inches – 89th percentile

Here are Riggs' stats from yesterday:

Weight: 17 lbs 7 oz - 30th percentile
Height: 26 inches – 15th percentile
Head: 17 1/4 inches – 30th percentile

More updates as the information is available!!
