Milestones: Six-year-old check-up


Last Thursday we left the school pick up line and drove straight to our pediatrician's office for the girls' annual well visit.  William George was also slated for the second installment of his flu vaccine and was taken to the appointment against his will. 

Here are the stats: 

Gracie:  At six years of age, Gracie measures 44 1/4 inches tall (50-75th%) and weighs 41.2 pounds (50-75%).  (Gracie was a little slouchy during the height measurement so her height is a little understated.  As shown in the above photo, the girls have a tendency to not put her feet against the wall and lean back, shaving an inch or two off their height.)

Lauren:  Lauren, at six, measures 43 inches tall (25-50th%) (her height is accurate because she plants her feet properly when it counts and stands as tall as she can) and weighs 37.4 pounds (25-50th%). 

They are both developing perfectly, and Dr. W is thrilled with their progress.
