Official One Year Stats

Lucas and I headed to the doctor yesterday morning for his one year check up. As usual, he charmed the doctor and all the nurses and passed all his "tests" with flying colors :) Ever since he was born, he has steadily moved up the height/weight percentile chart, but remained very proportional (they comment on that every time...maybe most babies aren't?). This trip was no exception. He measured  24 lbs, 3 oz (70th percentile), which means we can turn that carseat around in the back seat. Woohoo! (His little legs have been crunched up waiting for one year!) He is 30 1/4 inches tall (65th percentile). I think most of this height is legs...I can't get pjs that are long enough! His head measurement cracked me up this time...19 inches....or...92nd PERCENTILE!!! He is definitely living up to the Hlavaty name (which means "big head" in Czech, for those of you who don't know. Awfully ironic name for me, since I inherited the Bressler pinhead.) But, Lucas is apparently taking after the BigHead side of the family...we just hope that he has a big, smart brain to fill up that head! So, all is well in Lucas's world, according to the doctor. We are supposed to be working on new words with him and identifying body parts, so that will be a fun new game. It's amazing to me how far our little 7lb 6oz guy has come in just one year!
