He's Got Pounds!

70th percentile, baby! 

Mr. Eli has weight.  My heart baby, 3 years and some months at 37lbs, is in the 70th percentile in the weight charts.  (But 40th in height, haha.)

Compared to other heart children, Eli has always been heftier.  Indeed, every time we went in for check-ups the nurses and doctors say, "Wow!  Look how big he is!"  and ask, "What's your secret?"  And this was being in the 40th percentile in weight.  
Oh, and my secret?  He really likes cottage cheese, hot dogs, and pasta--though not all mixed 3 together!    

But the best part of this story is: he beats his brothers in their percentile weight! 
That's right, Amazing Eli is gaining weight better than his 6 yr old brother and 2 year old brother.  Good stuff, right there.
