What a BIG BOY!

I have to admit, I used to be a tad judgmental about other people who had really big babies. I would think to myself, "how can they let them get so big?!?" Well, the joke's on me! Talk about Karma! Charlie is turning into one of those huge babies. Um, well, he has actually already turned into one of those huge babies. At two months, he fit into his 3-6 month clothes, and now, at not even 4 months, he seems to be outgrowing them. Some of the sleeves are too short for him! While he is also a heavy baby (16lbs at 14 weeks; I'm getting him officially weighed later today), he is not really fat. I'm not saying he's not chubby. But he seems to be well-proportioned. His clothes aren't tight yet; they are just getting short. He just looks like a 6-month-old baby at 16 weeks. I looked at a picture of him when he was minutes old the other day; I can't believe he has more than doubled in size! Even Kate looks tiny next to him! (yes, see how she can still sort of fit into the Stage 1 car seat!)

...and here he is, waving at the camera!
