is she teething already too?

so, the verdict is in. addie is really a 5 month old trapped in a 2 month old body.

at her doctor's appointment today, she came in a whopping 13lbs. 3 1/2 ozs. putting her in the 95th percentile for weight. then she measured 23 3/4 inches which puts her in the 90th percentile for height. then of course, the one that always concerns me the most, her gigantor head - measured 16 3/8 inches around. this means her head is actually bigger than 95 percent of the babies out there.

good lord. and thats not all.

the doctor then asked how much she eats, and i was honest, and his eyes got really big.

"okay, well, its obvious she doesn't skip any meals - why don't you try adding rice cereal to her diet"

WHAT?!

i was almost afraid to ask, but she does drool quite a bit, so i just said it as a side note to the doctor and his eyes got big again!

look, my two month old does not have teeth coming in yet, so she drools, so she is a little advanced for her age,

so was her mama - and i don't think she is all that bad? poor little girl. now i am going to have start worrying about her bra size...ugh.
my little adelaide, big enough to be spoon fed. goodness.
