You see, yesterday was Jenna's nine month appt. at the doctor, and she weighed in at 13.6 lbs. That's the 0th-percentile! (is zero-th a word?...)
So, we've got to supplement her nursing with formula (ugh... holy expensive) and pack as many calories in that tiny body as we can before Dec 26. - That's when she's got her next weigh-in at the doc's.
Until then, I'll be spending half my days cleaning bottles and the other half letting Jenna take her sweet time eating breakfast, lunch, dinner and a few snacks in-between.
We're gaining weight now, so send us your goodies!

Maybe you should buy her a set of dentures. Then I'm sure she could eat a lot more. :)
Oh my goodness! We have the opposite problem on this end...tell Jenna she can take some of Livia's fat rolls.
Just want to let you know, Paul did the same thing. He grew really fast at the beginning (gained 3 lbs and grew 3 inches his first month of life!) He was wearing size 12 months when he was 3 months old and was still wearing that size when he turned one! The doctor was concerned when he stopped gaining and ran tests and all, but then he started growing and everything was fine. So maybe she is just following in her Dad's footsteps!
