I know you aren't suppose to compare kids...

...but DS2 has his 2 year well check today and I of course compared his height/weight/head size to DS1's. And if I go back and compare all their well check sizes it's kinda creepy. These boys grow at the exact same rate!

Birth:
DS1 - 7lbs 13oz, 20 inches
DS2 - 7lbs 11oz, 20 inches

2 month check-up:
DS1 -12lbs 4oz, 24 inches
DS2 - 12lbs 10oz, 23.25 inches

4 month check-up:
DS1 - 15lbs 1oz, 26.25 inches
DS2 - 14 lbs 15oz, 26 inches

6 month check-up:
DS1 - 17lbs 9oz, 28 inches
DS2 - 17lbs 12oz, 27.75 inches

1 year check-up:
DS1- 23lbs 2oz, 31.5 inches
DS2 - 22lbs 7oz, 31.5 inches

18 month check-up:
DS1- 26lbs even, 33.75 inches
DS2 - 25lbs 6oz, 34 inches

2 year check-up:
DS1- 29lbs 11oz, 34.5 inches
DS2 - 28lbs 14oz, 36 inches

My kids started out really close (1 oz. separated the at birth and they were the same height) and were nearly identical the first 9ish months or so. Then DS2 gained a little less and grew a little less height-wise. But the funny thing is he gained more from 12-15 months and he has a big ol' belly. I'm pretty sure he is going to be short, stocky, and bald. AKA have my stature and hair. lol, poor kid.

DS2 always looks so much more "baby" to me because he still has super fine wispy baby-like hair while DS1 has more thick/wavy hair (even though they both started out super bald at birth-6 months old). DH is always like "When is Benny's hair gonna grow in?" And I keep trying to tell him that its probably not. He's just gonna end up with thin/flat hair like I had as a kid and still have to this day!
