Henry Seewald, 6 months old, and Spurgeon Seewald, 21 months old
Born on February 6th, Henry Wilberforce Seewald has just passed his
six-month milestone! By 11 weeks, Henry had nearly doubled his birth
weight of 8 lbs, 11oz, something that many babies don't do until around six months. Now, he weighs in at just under 20
lbs. The average range for baby boys his age starts at 16 lbs, so he's
at the top of the curve.

Is it really important to emphasize that this baby is at the "top of the curve" for size? It makes it sound like this is something to proud of or something to attain. There are always going to be kids from all over the weight spectrum. If he were below average in size- I doubt that would be highlighted.
ReplyDeleteHuh. I didn't take it that way. I thought the blogger was just stating a fact, in case people who aren't familiar with growth charts want to know where he fell on the chart.
DeleteI think it's more to give some perspective.
DeleteThe blogger didn't emphasize it, she mentioned it.
DeleteI honestly think some people come here just to pick the posts and comments apart. Try approaching things with love in your heart and give people the benefit of the doubt. I promise you'll feel better!
DeleteHard to believe you would take offense at something so trivial as Henry's growth chart.
Delete7:56- The size of a baby is not important. This post was all about how big Henry is.
DeleteDebbie- Yes, the growth chart is trivial to anyone but the parents. I think that's what was being pointed out.
DeleteHe is so stinkin cute! Both boys are just plain adorable.
ReplyDeleteCute Baby, his older sister needs a haircut.
ReplyDeleteHenrys six months old, must be time for Jessa to announce another pregnancy then.
ReplyDeleteAww he's so cute!!
ReplyDeleteThey all have beautiful blue eyes!
ReplyDeleteToo CUTE! Beautiful boys. I have been a fan of Spurgeon's hair, but I think it's time to cut those precious locks. He is beginning to look like a little girl instead of the handsome boy he is. God bless.
ReplyDeleteAgree about the hair
DeleteAll of my boys have long hair and still look like boys
DeleteNever a need to rush cutting off those beautiful curls! Plenty of time for that OR let him have longer hair. There is no set hairstyle for a little boy.
DeleteIt's nice that they are close in age. I believe Jessa planned that, not as much for her, but for them. Thanks for sharing the pictures of your sweet boys..Jane
ReplyDeleteBoth of these boys are just so adorable!!! Henry is starting to favor spergie more, albeit sperg has way more hair. Beautiful children! Izzy and sam seem to favor each other as well but it looks like sam has spergiuon lips!
ReplyDeleteAwww he's almost as big as Spurgeon! Too cute xx
ReplyDeletewith henry's birth in february, the duggars now have a birthday in each month!
ReplyDeleteTwo beautiful babies !
ReplyDeleteSo cute! Every once in a while I see a kid that seems like he's like a grown up just biding his time in a little body. :) Henry seems like one of those. I wonder what his personality will be like!
ReplyDeleteLove the picture of Ben and the boys in their Arkansas shirts. I see more similarities in the brothers as Henry gets older.
ReplyDeleteThose chubby little legs! They are blessed to have two beautiful, healthy children.
ReplyDeleteThey're both adorable little boys.
ReplyDeleteI love watching your family grow. You've got a beautiful family. I wish you all the best going forward
