Only those who attempt the absurd will achieve the impossible. I think it's in my basement... let me go upstairs and check.

Iain Stats
Iain had his 12 month check up on Tuesday. For those of you who are interested he weighs 18 pounds 15 ounces and is 29 inches tall. He's growing, but it looks like he's going to take after his dad.
What a big boy--already having his 12-month check-up! I'm not sure how that happened since he couldn't possibly be older than about six months. :) What a tall, slender guy he is! He definitely tips the percentile scale on cuteness though. Doctors don't usually post that chart in their office 'cause they don't want to make the other kids feel bad.
What were your (Geoff and Kim) measurements at one year, do you know?
I love it how the dr's give you the stats on the kids and then tell you how abnormal they are but how no kid really is normal and not to feel bad about it- and not to compare your kids to other kids...but they are the ones comparing them, not us. So what if my kids are small with huge heads? Did they give you head size stats? That is where it really gets fun. It sounds like Iain is perfect though, so you have nothing to worry about... even if he does end up to be 5'8 and weigh 118 pounds. I am sure he will have other amiable qualities if he keeps hanging around Annie enough.

Geoff was 5'8" and 116 lbs at one year. Funny, he never had any growth spurts.

That last comment is REALLY funny.
