Ben had his well-baby visit for 12 months this morning. He was a total sweetheart to the nurse and, for the first time, allowed her to get a real, honest-to-God measurement of his head. (He was also a total show-off and stood on the adult scale when it was time to get a weight.) Things [...]

The New Stats
Posted in Benedict, Milestones, Uncategorized on May 4, 2010 | 1 Comment »
It may be baseball season, but the only averages we care about here in Dwyeropolis are ones we get at the doctor’s office. Here’s how Ben stacks up against his peers: Weight: 20 lb. 4 oz. (43rd percentile) Length: 29.5 in. (88th percentile) Head circumference: 47 cm (78th percentile) He’s a pretty fluent crawler at [...]
Now is the winter of our discontent
Posted in Benedict, Health Problems, Milestones, Photos on February 2, 2010 | 2 Comments »
… we’re still waiting for the “made glorious” part. Ben and Pru (and at least one of their parents) are sick with the winter cold that just won’t die. It’s not terrible, but it is annoying enough to keep all of us up and to make sleep hard to catch. (Let me editorialize here and [...]
A year and a half and still going strong

Pru’s visit to the doctor contained the last set of shots for a while (whew!) and more than the normal amount of wiggling while her measurements were taken. She’s still healthy and growing steadily. Need proof? We’ve got that. Height: 33 in. (85th percentile) Weight: 24 lbs. (50th percentile) Head circumference: 48 cm (90th percentile) [...]

Pru had a check up this morning. Everything went smoothly aside from the measurement-taking and the vaccination-giving. Fortunately, cookies still work as a ameliorative gesture: Pictures are nice but we know why you are all here — you want measurements. Without delay: Height: 32.0 in (90th percentile) Weight: 22 lb 14 oz (50th percentile) Head [...]

A check-up to start her second year? No problem, Pru says. Height: 30.0 in (73rd percentile) Weight: 22 lb 10 oz (71st percentile) Head circumference: 47 cm (90th percentile)
Happy 5/6 of a year, Pru!

As a gift, we gave Pru a visit to her new pediatrician. We even threw in some vaccinations – for free! We are generous and wonderful parents. The relevant stats (and a picture or two) are below the fold: Height: 30.25 inches (96th percentile) Weight: 22 lb 14 oz (89th percentile) Head circumference: 46 cm [...]
The Beagles Have Landed

We have arrived in Rensselaer. At the moment we’re just hanging out, waiting for the movers to catch up to us. Cal is very fond of having an almost entirely carpeted living space, though his feelings towards the two flights of stairs are somewhat more mixed (as mine will no doubt be soon, once you-know-who [...]
That’s Right, Pru’s Not From Texas…
Posted in Angus, High School, Milestones, Sarah, Sweet Pea, Texas on July 17, 2008 | 2 Comments »
…but Texas wants her anyway. Ready to depart for Pru’s first ever-trip to Texas. It will be a three-way reunion: Sarah’s 10th high school reunion, a Horney family reunion, and my long-awaited reunion with Whataburger. Are we excited?
