Yesterday Dahlia went to the Doctor for a check-up. Much to all of our surprise (including the doctor — when he picked her up he said she was heavier than she looked) she wasn’t over 20 lbs. She was a mere 19 lb. 12 oz. What a lightweight! Of course, that is off the charts for her age. It’s somewhere around 105 percentile. Her height, at 26 in., is only the 90 percentile, whatever that means!

We are convinced she weighed more a few weeks ago and lost some weight along the way. Her strict regimen of rolling and sitting up exercises could easily account for that loss!
