I am guessing that there are different growth charts doctors use and I think fractions must make a big difference in the percentages.
Elizabeth just went and she weighs 36.4 lbs (60%) and is 40 3/4 inches (65%) which does not jive the same as some of the percentages for the same measurements.
Hannah finally had her well-check today... She's 39 inches, and 35.5 lbs. I'm freaking excited, lol. We haven't been above the 10% in weight in 3 years. Now she's at the 50% mark.
Hannah is 33 pounds and 42 inches tall. At this rate Bryson will catch her and soon
So funny, the other day, something was off, and I couldnt tell what. I realized Kyle had put Rhys in Kiera's pjs. they are dinosaur, so not girly, but they are pjs she currently wears (Size 3). They were a little loose on him once I realized it, but otherwise, I would have never noticed if Kiera hadnt said something!
I will get Kiera's official stats on the 27th, but I think she is only about 33 lbs.

I don't pay that much attention to percentiles. I got real tired of hearing how small Stephen was and them telling me he needed to gain weight.
According to 1 online calculator there is a little over 4 inch difference between 10th and 90th for height for a 4 year 0 month old girl(around 38 inches to 42 inches).
The weight difference for 10% to 90% is 13 lbs(30lbs to 43lbs).
Of course I could probably use a different calculator and get different numbers.

At today's checkup (which included 4 shots) Daniel is 40 pounds, and 41.5 inches. DR S said he's good sized and very well proportioned. IDK where that falls on the chart...she didnt say and i didnt ask
