I forgot to mention in my earlier post that the babies are 7 months old today.
Both girls can roll over, though Cari does it at will and Arden has only done it by chance. Both are teething but no one has popped a tooth yet. Their hair is really coming in and Arden's is darker. Cari's eyes are turning a little lighter and Arden's eyes are turning brown (I think). Neither can sit up yet, but Cari seems closer to it and I believe rolling over is a prelude to sitting. They don't have any favorite foods yet, but they do prefer their green veggies with a touch of butter. Arden has a great sense of humor, while Cari is extremely easy-going.
6 Month Stats
I also never got a chance to report the stats from their 6 mo visit. They really are impressive for two former preemies. Their pediatrician was duly impressed.
Arden...
- weighs 16 lbs 12 oz ~ 60 percentile
- is 26 inches long ~ 50 percentile
- has a 17 1/4 inch head ~ 80 percentile
Caryss...
- weighs 18 lbs 11 oz ~ 90 percentile
- is 28 inches long ~ 97 percentile
- has a 17 inch head ~ 60 percentile
What does 97 percentile mean? It means that Caryss is taller than 97 percent of 6 mo old baby girls! Wha? Where did my gentle giant and future WNBA star come from?
