Chubby babies

When people see how "big" Presley and Marshall are, they say "But you're so thin, how do you have chubby babies?". Well for starters I weighed 8 lbs 10 oz and Kyle was over 9 lbs when he was born. my sister was 9lb 4 oz and both my nieces were 8 lbs 8 oz. See a pattern here? Big babies run in both of our families. The twins were a month early, and were 8 lbs 6 oz at their one month check up. Even at 6 lbs and 5 lbs 12 oz, they were "big" for twins. How "big" or "small" your baby is/was does not necessarily determine how they will be when they are older. I know some people who are heavier, yet were smaller babies and others who are thin, yet were big babies. I've also heard, "well it's because they are on formula" or "my child is smaller because he/she was breastfed". That doesn't matter either because all of us (nieces included) were breastfed. So here is some photographic evidence that I was not a tiny baby. On the hunt for Kyle's baby pics...





Look closely, yes there are chubby rolls there!
