A year of Em isn't big.
Joshua was, for his first eighteen months, in the 98th or 99th percentile for everything they measured. Length, weight, head size, handsomeness, etc.
Emily Hope isn't. At her last checkup, she was 10th percentile for length and weight. At this one, I forget which stat she's down to 3rd percentile on. She's still healthy, and growing--just not as fast as other kids. And she's not quite the weight she'd need to be to turn her car seat around, despite being old enough.
She's a cute little Em, though--I love her every minute of every day. http://www.feldon.org/gallery/v/aug07/P1010730.JPG.html
