One-Year Measurements
Dylan had his one-year well check this week. He continues to do well in the areas of growth and development. Dylan now weighs in at 23 lbs, 1 oz., is 31 inches long, and has a head size of 19 1/4". He is at the 50th percentile for weight and between the 75th and 90th for height. He is still above the 95th percentile for head size, even though his head only grew by 1/4" in the past three months. This does make one wonder a bit about the precision of measurements. It's amazing to realize that Dylan has grown more than ten inches and gained more than 15 pounds in his first year of life.

Happy Birthday Dylan!
Today is Dylan's first birthday. We can't believe that a year has passed since he was born. The last year has passed so quickly and yet Dylan has changed so incredibly.
We had a relaxed celebration with cake and presents. We made an applesauce cake with cream cheese frosting. Dylan enjoyed playing with the cake more than eating it. We'll see if he eats more of the leftovers. He has certainly improved his present opening skills as he required little assistance. We hope to have pictures and a movie of the occasion soon.
To hold you over for now, we've posted three movies featuring Dylan:
It has been the most amazing year.
Turn around, turn around...
