I think all of us have now recovered from Alexandra’s birthday weekend. We had a great time celebrating with friends and family from near and far on Saturday the 20th. Alex especially liked the cake part of the event. On her actual birthday, we just had a family dinner at Jack’s Prime (where the ice cream was less of a hit). She also had her one-year doctor’s appointment on her birthday and she’s doing great. The stats:

• Length: 2′ 6.5″ and 90th percentile
• Weight: 25 lb, 3.5 oz and 98th percentile … and, again, before anyone out there worries, she’s fine and the doctor isn’t worried about her weight.
• Head Circumference: 48 cm and still literally off the charts (since 100th percentile doesn’t really exist)

Her first experience with ice cream. She did not appear to be a fan of the temperature. (July 19th)

Finally, a heads-up that we switched the email notification providers, so you may have missed the email about this post. Many cute pictures…check it out. 🙂
