I took Jerome and Ruth to the doctor yesterday to get caught up on more shots. I was absolutely shocked when I learned of their growth since coming in December.
In 9 months, Jerome has gained 10.5 lbs and grew 4.5 inches!
Ruth gained 8.5 lbs. and grew 4 inches!
That is Huge! I think only infants gain that much in under a year. I guess they had a lot of catching up to do!
In Christ, Laura

That is great!
That is amazing!
Laura,
Isn't it incredible? Elizabeth grew 10 inches in 10 months (July-May) and has gained 25 lbs. since we adopted her just 18 months ago. Poor girl has growing pains all the time! I'm so glad your children are doing well!
But one can never measure how much their hearts have grown, and I expect the Mouro Family's as well, with these 2 special additions.
Wow! We saw much of the same with our kids from Russia.
