But She Has a Great Personality...



Isn't that what you say when someone's on the chunkier side? ;)

Well, Mary is officially a little chunker, with a great personality! This is uncharted territory for our little Stecher girls. Mary is over a pound heavier than any of the other girls were at two months, and 4 pounds heavier than Tessa!! She weighs 12 pounds, 14 ounces, which puts her into the 90% percentile! For comparison, these were the girls' weights at the same age:

Megan: 11 pounds, 10 ounces
Bridget: 11 pounds, 7 ounces
Tessa: 8 pounds, 14 ounces**
Annie: 9 pounds**

**I had to search for quite a while for these stats since, a whole 2.5 years into their lives, the twins' baby books have not even been cracked open. Must get on that. Must get on that. I figure this blog is a suitable stand-in in the event that those are never finished, though :)

She does, however, inherit some baby fat from Matt. He was such a chunky baby that his nickname, for a long time, was Vasili, a big wrestler from the 70's? So, we've been half-expecting some rolls with our babies, but it's still a little surprising that it finally happened with baby five.

I'm enjoying every thigh roll, and loving her big chubby cheeks, in which she holds at least 25% of her weight!

Just wanted to say I love your blog. Your children are beautiful! My best friends growing up were twins. They had 2 younger sisters who were also twins (2 years younger) and one older sister a year older. So yes, 5 girls in HS at the same time! I loved being at their house, it was so much fun. Thanks for sharing!
