Jake has his delayed 12 year dr. appointment today. His Dr. happens to be the mother of one of his friends, and she could not believe the growth Jake's had during this pandemic! Her son and Jake have always been similarly sized, truly two of the smallest kids in the class. Well, Jake is now officially two inches taller than her son, and has moved from the 2-5 percentile in height up to 30%!!
We had to pull out Josh's baby book from Lee to compare, as Jake has always been similar to Josh in growth patterns...until now. With this crazy growth spurt, Jake is now 2.5 inches taller than Josh at age 12 (as well as 22 pounds heavier!).
Let's see how many items we can check off by the end of summer!
What great news about Jake's growth spurt. This documents the big changes we've seen in Jake this past year.
ReplyDeleteI love the Ideas for Summer and the baking championship.
Watching Jake's basketball and soccer games, Nana noticed that his height was quite comparable to the majority of his team mates. It must be all the baked goodies he and his sister have created and devoured. How is it that the JAC team often sets up many activities as "championships?" Competition seems to come naturally to these kids...but it is friendly competition. (What could be friendlier and happier than inventively frosted cupcakes. Yum!
