WOWZA

1 year ago today, I wrote THIS POST.  And my-oh-my what a difference a year makes!  I said I would not be doing monthly updates and this most definitely is not one of those, but it is more of a comparative analysis of our guy, seeing as how he is exactly 13 months old today. 

1 year ago today, our sweet little Jackman was just that...a teeny tiny little wee-bit of a Toots man weighing in at 8lbs, 2oz and 20 3/4" long.  Today?  Well, today our little monster is 24lbs and 32" long.  He's basically grown a foot and tripled his weight.  Holy moly!  Which gets me thinking, what if we (as in adults) grew at the same rate of infants/ babies in their first year?  We'd all be giants!



Just look at the difference in our sweet Toots man...
