Bryce is very different from his brother Kyle and he has been right from the beginning. Bryce was born at 6lbs 5oz. and was 18.5" long. (Kyle was 8lbs 1oz. and 20.5") When he came home all that fit him was preemie clothes... and he was born 10 days after his due date! He hasn't really grown the way the doctors would like and we've had to take him in for all kinds of lab work and special appts. just to see how he was growing. It has all been very frustrating. He has developed well and been content, but when your one year old is still sporting six-month clothing you start to wonder/worry. He has never really been a good eater which doesn't help his situation. After our visit to the Feeding and Nutrition Clinic at Children's hospital last week, the doctor felt that though he is definitely short for his age, his weight matches up with his height and he seems to be developing right on track. Praise the Lord!!
Bryce is just shy of being 14 months old and now weighs a whopping 16.5lbs! He is also 27" tall. He has been trying out walking on and off for the last two months but prefers to scoot his way around, probably since it is much faster for him and he can either keep up with his big brother or get out of his way! He has a very limited vocabulary, which was a bummer for me since Kyle was such a good talker so early. I'm beginning to think that Bryce has quite a bit to say, he just never gets a chance to try to say any of it! Kyle is a CONSTANT talker. Poor Bryce can never get a word in edgewise! Here is a little video I shot last week of Bryce saying "Kyle." Notice the background noise!! He is such a blessing from the Lord.
