I took Maddie in this morning for her 6 month check up.
She weighs 21 pounds 13 oz and is 29.25 inches tall. I haven’t checked the other kids stats, but I expect them to be almost identical. We’re keeping right in line with her clothing needing to be double her age which was exactly what happened with Chloe. So she fits wonderfully in 12 month clothes right now.
She is busting out of her car seat, so once she is sitting up just a tiny bit more securely, we’re going to transition her to the next backwards facing carseat. Speaking of car seat I got to wondering how much that monster weighs, now that I know she is almost 22 pounds. Seriously, that thing feels like it weighs 50 pounds as I lug it around on my arm. I can’t wait until she can walk! Anyway, when I got home I weighed it on my scale. It only came to 34 pounds. I admit I was a little disappointed. Now I just feel like a pansy. 😉
Is 34# just the car seat or with Maddie in it? If it’s just the car seat than it is a monster. Seeing moms carrying a car seat full of baby (primarily at BSF) makes me appreciate the effort they put out to come.
That total is both Maddie AND the car seat. That means that the car seat weighs about 12 pounds.
