1 Year Check-Up

Here are Lily's 1 year stats:

Height: 28-1/2"--25th percentile
Weight: 16.11 lbs.--First percentile, barely hanging on to the charts on this one.
Head: 18"--70th percentile

I've been convinced that my new little friend is a genius. That head size confirms my beliefs. Here is a conversation from the movie "So I Married an Axe Murderer" that gets quoted in the house after Lily's doctor's appointments. Enjoy.

Stuart Mackenzie: Look at the size of that boy's heed.
Tony Giardino: Shhh!
Stuart Mackenzie: I'm not kidding, it's like an orange on a toothpick.
Tony Giardino: Shhh, you're going to give the boy a complex.
Stuart Mackenzie: Well, that's a huge noggin. That's a virtual planetoid.
Tony Giardino: Shh!
Stuart Mackenzie: Has it's own weather system.
Tony Giardino: Sh, sh, shh.
Stuart Mackenzie: HEAD! MOVE!

Stuart Mackenzie: I'm not kidding, that boy's head is like Sputnik; spherical but quite pointy at parts! Now that was offsides, wasn't it? He'll be crying himself to sleep tonight, on his huge pillow.
