I'm sure there will quickly come a day when Quinn will be appalled that we post her weight and height on the internet for the whole world to see. For now, though, we're going to take full advantage of her lack of awareness. She had a couple of doctor's appointments yesterday.
Our prize fighter is weighing in at 7 pounds 2 ounces.
Our budding basketball player is 19 inches.
Our nobel prize winner has a 34" head. (I think that's what she said). CORRECTION: Quinn does NOT have a head that is almost 3 feet in diameter. 34 centimeters...ahh, much better.
And her thighs require the shorter needle for shots because they're not quite plump enough (we're working on it).
I made a joke to the injection nurse that they had to get the shorter needle so that it didn't poke out the other side of her leg. She didn't laugh. When she left the room, I nervously asked devin if perhaps my statement had been inappropriate. He deadpanned, "yes." And then smiled and told me it was perfect! After the injection nurse finished inducing some blood-curdling screams (in Quinn, not us), she assured me that the longer needle would not have pierced through Quinn's leg. Then I understood why she didn't laugh.
P.S. Devin thinks that we could create a baby product that safely replicates the position that Quinn is hanging in the picture. She loves it. (No worries, devin is within 6 inches of her when Quinn is hanging out.)

she's just hanging out, checking out this and that
If her head was three feet in diameter, you realize it would be 7 feet in circumference, right? Circumference is around, diameter is across, radius is half way across. pi r squared. :)
I love the hanging out pose.
@KAthleen....nerd alert!
Not denying it. Ain't no shame.
