Well-child stats and newly hatched butterflies!

Here's the latest from the boys' well-baby visits:

Eli - at 9 months

19 lbs 10 oz (35th%) - very surprising considering the amount of food this kid is eating lately!

29 inches (75th%)

And a cute video of Eli and his first real sounds: B-b-b - for ball, balloon and Ben (in the video). He also does a P-p-p (mostly appearing to request more 'puffs' - the little bite sized cereal that he loves!

Ben - at 3 years

36.5 lbs (78th%)

38.75 inches (75th%)

Here are Ben's first 'pets'. Brent, Patti and Nick got him a butterfly garden for his birthday. Ben got to see some caterpillars form a chrysalis, and then watch then emerge as Painted Lady butterflies. Very cool! Yesterday, we got to watch an adult drink some sugar water with its proboscis. He's going to be such the science nerd. :)
