Hungry and the Caterpillar




Measuring Scarlett up against her caterpillar (60cm) reminds me of one of Luc's favourite stories, The Hungry Caterpillar. She has always been a great eater and yesterday's 2 month check-up showed me just how good. She is up to 75th percentile for weight which means that 75% of babies her age weight less than she does. She has chubby cheeks and thighs that we love to squash! Luc, on the other hand, is as thin as a toothpick. I expressed my concern to the doctor who told me not to worry so much as Luc is rarely sick and has lots of energy. As they grow up I wonder whether they'll be complete opposites in other ways too ...
