1 year old.  Officially he weighs 25 lbs. 6 oz and is 33" tall (I'm saying tall because he spends more time vertical than horizontal now) .  He's now wearing 18 month clothes and he just fits into a kids size 6 shoe.  By summer, he'll be in 24 month clothes.

6 Months old and he almost 22 lbs. and 28.5" long.  Growth is steady and he's regularly having 2-3 solid meals per day.  We're fully into the 6-9 month sizes with a few 9-12s in the mix.  We just bought his snow suit for the winter and it's a 12 month set.

5 Months old and he's now over 20 lbs. and 28" long.  Growth has slowed but he getting so much stronger.  A few 6 month sizes fit him but a few 12 month sizes also fit him.  He's also a size 2 or 3 for shoes.

4 Months old and he's now 18 lbs. and 27.5" long.  The doctor said he's average size... for a 6 month old!  We've moved fully into 6-9 month clothes.

3 Months old and he's now 17 lbs. and 27" long!  We're moving into the 6-9 month sizes.  Sleepers that fit just a couple of weeks ago are now to short and he's now outgrown most of his newborn shoes.  Oh well, babies should go barefoot in the summer anyway. New shoes should be at least a size 3, he barely fits into the size 2s now.

2 Months and he's just back from the Doctor for his exam.  Officially, he weighs 14 lbs. 6 oz. and is now 24" long.  He is in the 50% for head size while being in the 90% for height and 95% for weight.  We figure he'll outgrow his car seat (which is rated for 24 lbs. or 1 year) by the end of the summer.  We are now taking BabiesR'Us Gift Card donations for the 2 car seats we'll need 6 months early. ;0)

7th Week and he's unofficially now 23 1/2" long and 13 lbs.  We'll have official numbers next week after his 2 month checkup.

5th Week measured him and he's 23" long.  That's 2 inches since birth. He's just begun to outgrow outfits that he wore as a newborn.

1 Month Old and he's just beginning to grow out of the clothes that fit him as a newborn.  We have plenty of the next size outfits for him but they're mostly short sleeved, springtime clothes.  He now weighs over 12.5 lbs. and Shannon is sure he's gotten longer too.  They say that babies should gain a pound a month and he gained over 2 in his first month!

After 3 weeks, he's nearly 11 pounds but hasn't gotten any longer than his birth length of 21".

Well, we were beyond the newborn diapers as soon as he was born!  We haven't had a chance to try on too many clothes but so far, the 0-3 month jumpers seem to fit; but just barely.
