The Hinyard-Lash Experience: Starring Leslie, Jeff, Esme, Brynn, Han, and other members of the Hinyard-Lash family

2-month weigh-in

Thursday, October 9, 2008

In this corner, weighing in at 13 lbs, 1 oz, lying down with a length of 23 inches, and an armspan of long-enough-to-grab-your-lower-lip, Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeesme Hinyarrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr-Laaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaash!

(Crowd cheers!)

Yes, Esme continues to grow. She had her 2-month checkup this week and is at the 90%th percentile for weight and 75%th percentile height. (She certainly didn’t get that height number from the Lash side of the family, that’s for sure.)

So, to recap (you can go back and read the one-week update and one-month update if you’d like):

  • Birth; Saturday, August 2: 7lbs, 14oz.; 20″
  • Hospital discharge; Tuesday, August 5: 7lbs, 7oz. (it’s normal for babies to lose some weight in their first few days)
  • One week checkup; Monday, August 11: 8lbs, 9oz.
  • One month checkup; Friday, September 5: 11lbs even; 21.75″
  • Two month checkup; Tuesday, October 7: 13lbs, 1oz.; 23″

Otherwise, everything is fine with her. No problems so far, and she took her second round of shots like a champ — a crying, fussy champ, though a champ nonetheless.
