Banana Baby


According to Dr. Sears, Hazel is a "banana baby":

"Long and lean babies (we call them "banana babies") are hypermetabolizers.  They burn off calories faster than the plumper "apple babies" or "pear babies".  Banana babies are likely to grow more quickly in height than weight so that they normally plot above average in height and below average in weight on the growth chart."

Yep, that's our Hazel.   Luckily, she's not a kumquat or anything.  That would be strange.

I'd say Silas is a potato baby... do you think that's accurate? Maybe a watermelon...
