Yo-yo, Ma!















Drew is 7 months old today and I'm working hard to fatten him up before the official weigh-in tommorow at the doctor's office. At the same time, he seems to be trying to wean himself which makes things extra complicated.

At his 6 month check-up, the pediatrician said he is below the 25th percentile in weight and I needed to get more calories in him. I tried, and yet wasn't too terribly concerned....he has plenty of rolls! But, lately I have begun to worry a little because even though he's chubby, his chubbiness hasn't changed for quite some time and I don't think he's gained weight in a while. He's been able to fit into the same clothes for months now.

Bet you didn't realize we live in a hacienda...check out those pseudo-adobe walls in the photo above!

It is hard to believe he could possibly be below the 25th percentile, but I ain't callin' you a liar.

I watched the video with no sound on my dinner break at work. So cute, so funny!

I would pay cash money to see a video of you and Keith lip-syncing to this song. Seriously.

Drew looks amazingly like Tintin in the top picture...

Now THAT was waaaay cool! It's been a very long time since I last heard that song or any P,P&M... ...I agree with Brad---do a lip sync video and POS IT! 8~)

We are giving it some serious thought, Brad!

Hey Liane,

Just catching up on your blog again...If it's any consolation Everlea has always been below the charts on weight until she was 2 and now she is in the 5th percentile! :) woohoo... The dr. never worried about it and she is happy and very healthy.
