Height:
*Brooke was weighed after breakfast, wearing a onesie and diaper. I generally try to weigh her before she eats...and in her birthday suit :) In addition, she has been a bit under the weather lately and not eating well. Her weight could be impacted by that.
According to What to Expect the First Year, at 10 months Brooke...
