Toddler Wily had her 15 month checkup on Wednesday. Once again, she took her vaccines like a champ and slept them off in the afternoon.
Height: 31" (57th percentile)
Weight: 22# 14 oz (44th percentile)
Right in the middle of the pack.

Vital update!
Toddler Wily emerged from her 1-year check-up with 4 puncture wounds, 1 removed splinter, and a clean bill of health.
The details:
Height: 30 3/4 inches (91 percentile)
Weight: 21 1/4 pounds (51 percentile)
Her weight is a little low, given past performance. Given the amount of walking, running and climbing Toddler Wily's been doing, well, we're not too concerned.
Gratuitous Toddler Wily shot:

Pile on Mama!

A graphical Interlude
Normally, we (attempt to) refrain from direct comparisons between Toddler Jeneric and Baby Wily. However, we hope you'll indulge a brief lapse as we indulge our geek-i-tude.

Figure 1. Mean Wily Jeneric height from the time period of birth through 6 months.

Figure 2. Mean Wily Jeneric weight from the time period of birth through 6 months.
What can we conclude from this limited data set?
1. Apparently, our parenting is such that we can produce and maintain near replicates (well, pseudoreplicates at any rate).
2. Despite actively refusing all bottles, cups and droppers, Baby Wily is no worse for the wear.
3. Older versions of MS Excel 2008 for Macs did not include an option for custom error bars. The standard error as calculated by Excel, was, in Jenni's words, "wonky."
4. Your conclusion here - leave your ideas in the comments.

Vital update!
Thanks to all 11 poll takers! The results are in!

(Drum roll, please)

Middle fiddle is the correct answer!

Height: 27 and 1/4 inches (86th percentile)
Weight: 18 lb, 8 oz (83rd percentile)
Head: 44 cm (82nd percentile)
Three shots and one oral vaccine later and we were out the door. We'll check in again in 3 months.

Results of the latest gallup poll
Er, Wily Jeneric Poll. The summary stats are in the upper right-hand corner. Most readers placed their bets on Baby Wily's height exceeding the car seat's limit.
The data are in. Drum roll? (insert funny drum roll noise in your head now)
Weight: 16 lb 3 oz (85th percentile)
Height: 25" (62nd percentile)
Perhaps her tall gene has yet to activate. Or perhaps we should cry 'foul!' at the measurement techniques used at the doctor's office. Independent measures of Baby Wily logged in heights of 25.5" and 26.5". That gives us a mean of 25.7 with a StDev of 0.82. Which means Baby Wily is indeed shorter than the 26" limit of her car seat.

(Baby Wily helps Aunt Kelly with the math.)
Next poll: When will Baby Wily's height exceed the maximum limit of her car seat?

Vitals
Toddler Jeneric had her 18-month check-up about a week ago. For those keeping score:
Weight: 27 lb, 4 oz
Height: 33 1/2 inches
Verdict: Tall yet quite proportional for her height. But don't let us tell you what to think. You be the judge:



If you've been keeping track of the vitals, you probably guessed (correctly) this also meant a new pair of shoes for Toddler Jeneric. Do their feet *ever* stop growing? Or at least slow enough that we don't buy new shoes every 3 months?!

Vitals
Toddler Jeneric had her 15-month check up late last week. We dutifully present an update:
Height: 32 and 1/4 inches (95th percentile)
Weight: 25 lbs, 2 oz (80th percentile)
Vaccines: three, taken like a champ
Her growth prompted us to check her shoe-size - yep, too small (no wonder she's been balling her left foot for the last week). We're up to a size 6!
