Our little runt....

I took Kayson in for his 9 month check up today. He is doing so much better from the last few weeks it is wonderful. When I took him in last Monday he weighed 17 lbs. and a week later he is weighing in at 19 lbs. Now this may sound like the weight of a strapping young baby...but it's not. Kayson is...a runt! He is in the 25% for his weight, 10% for his height, and 15% for his head circumference. Some moms would be concerned that their child is puny and scrawny, I on the other hand love the fact that I have this little guy who is actually staying little. Kayson is more than likely going to be our last child and from the time I got pregnant with him I was so worried that he would grow up so fast and that would be the end of babies filling our house with the feeling only babies bring. I feel bad to say this, but I have enjoyed him at every stage of infancy more than my other kids (mostly due to the fact that by this time I was usually pregnant again and very sick). But I am so glad that he is here and I get to hold and baby him for what seems a little bit longer than I got to with the other kids. Thank goodness for runts!
