Like a Weed!

As part of the six-month follow up the social workers asked us how much Michelle has grown since we have had her. We hadn't measured or weighed her lately, so I got out the tape measure and scale. I had read about 'catch-up growth' in adoptees, but Michelle has been 'catching up' even more than I expected. She has grown 4 3/4 inches and gained 9 1/2 pounds in six months!

CONGRATS! WOW, I am SO jealous! We are still trying to get growth and just hit the 5 month home mark with Drew... Can you send some of your magic potion our way? ;)

Yikes!!! Carson grew 3 inches in the first year, and I thought THAT was a lot!!

Maybe she just drew herself some platform shoes with those markers and really didn't grow at all...
