Our little boy
…is still pretty little. Here are his 9-month stats:
Weight: 16 lbs 12 oz (3rd percentile)
Length/Height: 27 3/4 in (25th percentile)
Head circumference 50th percentile
So we will keep feeding him as much cheese, avocado and banana as he likes as he’s obviously not keeping too much of it on his bones.
Ezra is a happy boy who is quite active, loves to smile and laugh, loves to move around (crawling and some pulling up on to furniture now), and loves to make a mess with his food. He also really likes door stoppers, cords and laughing when he crawls from the carpet to the tile.

Is it better to have a high or low percentile? Do these stats mean his head is too small for his body or his body too small for his head?

It’s better to be about 50th percentile, I guess (basically means that of 100 babies that 97 weigh more than Ezra at this age).

So thrilled we could witness all of his progress. You two are doing a great job and he is just adorable

Being little isn’t a really bad thing! Angelina has always been very small for her age.
When she was Ezra’s weight she was wearing 0-3 months clothes still and weighed 13 pounds.
ha ha. She is almost caught up. She wears a 6x, but they are pretty big on her. He will catch up before you know it!

Do little babies make your arms less tired?
