Quentin turned nine months old on October 11. Along with taking his nine month pictures, we also had a well-baby visit with his pediatrician. I am amazed by the amount of time that Dr. Sarah Cooper spends with us every couple of months to talk about our baby boy (I'm talking AT LEAST 30 minutes per visit). I'm convinced that if everyone was able to spend this much time with their physician at an appointment, our country's health care system would be in a much better place. I digress...according to Dr. Cooper, Quentin is growing "beautifully." Here are some of his key numbers/percentiles:
- Weight: 18 lbs. 13 oz. (36 percentile)
- Length: 29" (78 percentile)
- Head circumference: 18.25" (86 percentile)
In summary, we have a tall, skinny babe with a large brain :) I used to question the head circumference stat as his little noggin always seemed proportional to his body, but when I had to purchase a 12-24 month sized stocking hat for this winter, I started to realize that maybe he takes after his daddy on that front.
Here are some nine month shots of our Q Bear.
