Daddy's Little Weed

For those of you who know Stephen, you know he has a green thumb. He keeps all the plants in our "yard" thriving, but I'm starting to wonder if his love of gardening and watching things grow hasn't spilled over into his parenting. After Eli's 4 month appointment, Stephen was proud of his son's 96th percentile height (already outgrown his infant carseat...) but disappointed by his 75th percentile weight. Every day since then, in fact, Stephen has told me to "fatten him up" or "work on chunking up the Chunk." So even though you've already sprouted 27 and 1/2 inches tall, Baby Eli, apparently you need more water and sunshine to get you above 15 lbs 13 oz. and up to Daddy's standards.
