...and my stats are in. I just took Bennett in for his one year check up and here are the results: 18% for height at 29 inches and a whopping 1% for weight at 17 lbs. All my babies are have been small...usually between the 5th percentile and the 10th percentile, but I've never had one in the 1st percentile before. I like him being so small though, then I can pretend that he's my teeny tiny newborn for all that much longer. And I need all the help I can get when it comes to dragging out the baby-hood in him because I am getting so incredibly sad that this just might be my last baby.
These next few pictures are pretty blurry, but I wanted to include them because they show 1) Bennett's cute and crazy personality 2) his gummy, toothless smile (well, it was toothless until a couple of weeks ago when he decided to get 5 teeth all at once ~ no, I'm not kidding, he is currently getting four on top and one on the bottom. His first two were his upper fangs just like Ava's were) and 3) his curly Q tongue that always curls up to the left side of his mouth when he's happy. Another cute thing he does is whenever I am sitting on the floor it is mere seconds until I see a cute little Bennett crawling toward me at top speed to come and snuggle on my lap with his thumb inserted firmly in his mouth. The pictures above show that cuteness ;-) My mom also mentioned that he only does this with me (and sometimes Jason) because he doesn't do it when anyone else is on the floor...she told me this with tears in her eyes :-( only joking there were no tears, but she was trying her hardest to get him to crawl up to her and give her lap a big ole snuggle ~ don't feel too bad for her though she definitely got her snuggle time with Benzo. I've been so lucky to have extremely snuggly babies, but I can for sure say that Bennett is the snuggliest one yet.
