I noticed my blog neglect when I came to enter Lavinia’s 9 month stats.  Here they are:

Weight: 19 lbs. 7 oz (50-75th percentile)

Height: 26 1/4 inches (10th percentile)

Head” 45.5 cm (75-90 percentile)  Question from the NP: “Do people in your family have big heads?”  Oh, yes.

It was a rough (long) afternoon for us yesterday. Thomsen was bouncing off the walls so I slapped on all his rain gear and sent him out. It only lasted 15 minutes, but it was worth it. It reminded me of sending him in the snow, and I much prefer this. Thomsen must have thought of the winter too because shortly after he came in he asked if we could make snow ice cream in our new house too.
